    Black E30, sounded turbo’d, driving north on 41 by Ballard exit. Have never seen it around here before.

    Illinois plate? If so, I saw the same car the other day.

            If it was this, it's me:

            Also, as stated, I do also drive a f10 535xi, which just got fresh dampers, H&R springs, new michelins and non-cracked wheel:

                And while I'm at it, I do have a little bit of e30 content to share...

                I traded some beer for a few bits from @gilber33, one of them being US ellipsoids. After installing a factory airbox, new PS reservoir & hoses, and new throttle cable, I started on dropping the ellipsoids in. Using 9012 bulbs per Daniel Stern's recommended upgrade with slight modification to fit, and found a relayed H4 to 9005/6 conversion harness on amazon to make this extra simple. I'll button this up during the week.

                Here it sits in my increasingly crowded, unorganized garage. Who has decent looking 4x100 wheels they want to trade or sell cheap?

                  Just realized I thought this was a different thread. Oops. Guess it counts because I spotted the e30 in my garage and it's still not registered to me. 🤷‍♂️

                    Yup that was you. I just moved to the cranberry creek apartments behind the cop shop.

                    How is it riding on the hr springs? I am very close to completing my order on them. Seeing that drop makes me want them even more, that drop looks perfect

                                  Going over the bridge in Green Bay yesterday, I got passed by a clean E36 M3 sedan. The 350z in front of me gave him the bird as he passed him too, wasn't even speeding?

                                        Definitely was that car, I remember seeing the silver skirts. I saw it go by in the other direction in the dark, only caught that is was a e34 with m sport bumpers.
