Hi all! I am new to the site. I have a 91 318I convertible with the M42 engine. The car has 60,000 miles on it and is in almost mint condition. It has always been BMW serviced and repaired. It is basically stock right now other than an Alpine stereo system that I put in it. I plan on doing some mods to it in the future. I am the second owner and I bought it at 56,000 miles. An older woman owned it before me and kept it garaged and babied the car.

There are pictures of my car at the link below.

Yes ,I live in the US. I live in southern Arizona close to the Mexico border.I live in the desert near a town called Green Valley. We have a good bit of vegetation and plants for the desert. We get enough rain that plants still grow but most of the year it is sunny.

Nice cupholders :cheers: . I have the silly cassette holder in my car, so finding a place for even the smallest carry-arounds is virtually impossible.

BTW, your weather (and of course a caring owner) really treasures these automobiles we love, beautiful ride :thumb:. Perhaps lowering it slightly wouldn't hurt?

I just 2 mods done to my e30 this week. I had Bilstein shocks and struts put on my car 2 days ago. They made a huge difference in the ride and handling of my car! They are way better than the stock ones.

I put a JC performance chip in my car today and WOW!. Once I hit 3000 rpms the car just screams. I can`t believe the difference in the performance of my car. Also according to my mpg gauge ,I am getting about 5 mpgs more out of the car. I know alot of you here already have performance chips in your cars, but for those of you that haven`t yet,DO IT! You won`t be dissappointed.
