    Is the buyer of your M3 local? rather, will you be seeing your old car driving around the area, causing you anguish and suffering?

          The white e30 is mine as well, a 325ix.... In a little bit rougher shape.

              The m42 in mine seems to be holding together ok and it seeing a beating.... ALL the time. Never really misses a beat.

              You'll love that thing!

                Took it to St Louis today (and still there now...).

                Averaged 30mpg, only "issue" was the iS front lip began to flap on one side. Popped it off and put it in the trunk.

                It's a great car. I'll be posting a lot more soon.

                As for the M3, it was sold to a enthusiast somewhere near Minneapolis, but in Wisconsin. He's a BMWCCA member, I may run into him again, but I doubt it. The previous owner of the 318is is local to Milwaukee and is active in Badger Bimmers, he's messaged me like 3 times jokingly (maybe?) asking for the 318is back!

                Cool guys, it was a very pleasant experience. The BMWCCA community seems to be great. I plan on being much more active now!

                    S50 twin turbo swap. I think that was what he was looking for. Meth injection with like 40lb injectors and a fuel pump out of a 747. .5 miles to the gallon. Right alex?

                        Immediate plans are to address the few issues, which I'll list in a project thread....

                        Plans are for a OEM plus type build. Clean, lightly modified m42, mostly suspension work. Plan is to use it for auto-x and rock the gas sipping M42 for a while. There are long term ideas, but I'll leave it alone for a bit.

                        I have other priorities first though.... Obviously, as I sold the M3...

                            I can't drive a miata, they're ugly, and look homosexual... Which is fine, if you're into that thing...

                                I just prefer e30's....

                                I respect miatas for what they are, but I would never daily one. And that's what I'm looking for, daily driven, prepared for casual auto-x.

                                    Well the car just was in a hail storm in St Louis.... Baseball sized hail.

                                    Looks like a few small dings nothing crazy. Will report back.
