Hello Everybody!

So...I recently got rid of my AW 1989 325is (see sig)...and picked up this...

She is a Sterling Silver 1990 325i with an M52B28 motor. This should get me around a little quicker....ya think? She has been dropped on Ground Control Coil overs and running 16x8 Rota Slipstreams.

That is as sweet as you like. Never seen those rims on an E30 before but they are great.

Car's sitting pretty....looks a real tidy car, and as mentioned the engine conversion looks really clean and stock looking.
