Have fun today guys!
I’m so bummed that I cannot be there! I finally have an e30 again and I’m not going to make it. My trip delivering boats to the east coast has taken a day longer than anticipated. I can’t wait to see all of you next year or at another event this summer!!
2011 335d M-sport
1991 318i
Picture taken last night after taking the first drive in the e30!
I found a set of wheels!
Picking them up on my next trip to California.

Hopefully in my e30!
I’ll do my best to be there!
Welcome back! This month is the month you bring it home. I hope I get to see it in person at the Picnic this year!
Thanks!!!
Do you know the date yet?
I'm 90% sure I own this car now haha. I recognize the pin stripe and tape residue on the back door trim (and the fact that it's a white 318i sedan)
I sold it to Jenny Morgan. Is that who you got yours from?
Awesome!!!
Thanks!
I’ll send them a PM.
I’d prefer to find parts locally if possible.
You are both correct!
I’ve owned 18 different E30s over the years. Sold the last one approximately 8 years ago or so. Just bought a 91 318i in CA.
Where should I be searching for wheels (and seats etc) these days?? A lot has changed since I’ve been out of it!
Welcome back, Chris. Hope to catch you an the events this year.
Cant wait to see what you do with the new e30.
Thanks Dan! Great talking to you the other day!!! Spending some time in the basement today, figuring out what cool e30 parts are still down there. I’ve found e36 window switches. That’s a cool start!
Sorry, I should have been more clear.
Looking for 14” weaves, 15s would be great but I’m sure they’re crazy rare these days and $$$$. I’d think 16s even more so…
I don’t want to mess with adapters or a 5x120 swap. Old school I guess!
Anyone have anything?
I think I have a rear seat. I’ll check and post pics asap.
Welcome back!
Thanks! It’s good to be back! I’ve owned a metric shit ton of cars since I left the E30 scene. I am also glad that the picnic is still going!!! I am trying to figure out what year it was when I did the first one. Crazy how time flies!!!
i currently have a 2005 ZHP Convertible and a 2011 335d M-Sport. Both are awesome in their own ways, but they’re not E30s!!!
I bought this two weeks ago in California. Current owner has had it for 14 years. Always a CA car. Zero rust anywhere. I still have quite a stash of E30 odds and ends in my basement. What I know I don’t have and I’m looking to purchase are:
suspension
interior - seats, map light mirror, euro clock etc, etc
wheels
who knows what else!!!
Im headed to CA in April with an enclosed trailer to bring her home. I can’t wait!
