Oh dang. So is it an E12 based car?
Yes it is. I think the L-Jet was only used for a few years ending about '81.

So what year is it then? 80-82?
Sometimes you have to stop(mowing) and smell the flowers. Also, need to think about buying a camera. Any suggestions?
Im a big fan of Canon Rebels. But it really comes down to how much you want to spend.

I hardly spent any time shopping around so I'm not a great resource. The only thing I miss about my old point-and-shoot is the huge zoom range that it had (24-300mm). My DSLR came with a 18-55mm lens, which I think is pretty standard. You'll need a longer lens if you want to get a close-up of anything that's more that 20 or 30 feet away.
For reference 50mm is considered the "standard" length where the perspective is most natural. Below that things start to have a wide-angle or fish-eye look, and above that things start to look overly "flat".
Edit: This example shows the perspective difference more clearly because the size of the frame is kept the same. Everything in photography seems to be a trade-off... You can't seem to change anything without changing something else.

I bought a new house and i'm moving this weekend. We'll be in North Prairie now right by 83 and 59. I'll get more pictures up tomorrow but this is all we really care about. The garages. Two 2.5 car garages.
-
It's been a long day and a big shout to @i_love_cars for stopping by to help! We're almost completely moved in now!
-
Don't be wasting the precious garage space on the camper!
In time... in time...

Plot twist: you rent the garage and live in the pop-up trailer.
If i'm renting the garage I can still live in the house...

You guys are all getting old, buying houses and such. For years I've envied your ability to pack-up and move anywhere, not being tied down, now you're all domesticated and stuff.
Who will I live vicariously through??
we all like to work on cars. it pretty much precludes us from a nomad lifestyle. tools, parts, and non-running e30s is a lot of stuff to move around.

Phew, glad there are still some of you not settled down!!
For sure!
I got back from a week in Whistler, BC and 6 work days later I'm heading to Colorado, I hope this meets what you are looking for!I am certainly accepting sponsorship for this lifestyle in case you were looking.

After nearly two years of casually (and not very seriously) searching for and talking about a newer and more practical daily driver, I stumbled across a well cared for car with the right options and colors for a decent price (and a few extra goodies!). I reached an agreement with the seller following a detailed PPI and locked it down as mine. Don't worry, it's a BMW. I'll be flying to New Mexico to pick it up on the 10th and drive it home!

my guess is an alpine wagon, manual trans. i only guess that, because that's what i'd get, and we have near identical taste.
