      Haha. I don't particularly care for the looks of the X3's myself, however, the M sport package does a lot as far as appearance goes. I wouldn't have never even considered a base X3.

        Pretty tasteful e30 from one of the big guys at H&R. 

        I can relate with him when the article says " he nearly overloaded the inbox of Jim Kosturik at BMW of Westmont as he hunted for the little knick knacks that he'd need to see his dream to fruition. " In my case it has been me bugging Ryan Moffitt at BMW of North Milwaukee haha

            1. Orange looks incredible on that e30

            2. If my car is even 1/8th as nice as that one when it's done I will be so happy

                      Spent yesterday morning at The Petersen automotive museum in LA, holy shit was it the most amazing place ever. Checked off a dozen cars I thought I'd never get a chance to see (McLaren F1). The visiting exhibit was about the artistry of the Buggatti family so there were many pre and post-war examples including the new Chiron.

                      Not on wifi so just posting the BMW highlights, the David Hockney 850csi 6spd! and the Matzo Kayama 535i. Also on display was the Z4 used in the 2009 "Expression of Joy" commercials and part of the artwork.

                      I also paid for the vault tour showing what's not on display in their basement, lots of cool hot rods and movie cars. I wasn't allowed to take pictures down there but the BMW 100th/2002 50th anniversary BMW classic built 2002ti was down there apparently with the motor out. It's that orange "BMW Alpina" car that Stanceworks did a article on a while back.

                                  My first thought this morning was, "I should stay home from work".  Going to work confirmed this for me.  

                                  This about sums up my day already.

                                        I came across a fun decision Volkswagen made when they did the front subframes on mk4's. The front control arm bolt threads into a captive nut. This captive nut is not friction welded or spot welded to the subframe. They used an adhesive to adhere it. I was one of the no so lucky many who happened to break a captive nut free when removing one of the control arms. Time to open a hole in the subframe and tack the bugger back in place haha. Luckily the other side stayed put=)
