I'd love an Australian delivered one but $$$$ When I first got it (100% stock): Relatively current. (Since these track pictures - less enormous exhaust, wider tyres, and more engine things) If it won't poo poo up the thread I can elaborate on what I've done to it. And don't listen to people who say you can't daily drive these. I've driven it almost every day for the last 3 years, putting in about 50k km and loved every minute of it.

I shot some pictures. Shot them on a borrowed camera, and accidently had it 1 1/3rd stop underexposed, and was too lazy to retake them. They turned out OK for web use.

I went to an auction the other day and came home with this pretty unexpectedly.

Oh wow, that 325i's pretty mint. I love when E30s still have the pinstripe, it's so subtle but it's a lovely touch.

That interior fabric is so incredible. They need to make it an option on the Toyobaru.

In it's original life that fabric was blue but it fades to purple Amazing find with 49k on the odo. It's like a unicorn over here, I'm just waiting for the old man to post his mint condition, kept in the barn for the last 20 years MR2 turbo but I might be waiting awhile.

From a 400hp LS2, to a 100hp 1.5L. At least its averaging 40mpg highway.

Hallowed Turban posted:197k No, the silver one is what I daily. However, it used to be my DD. It's a really nice example of an E30, but it is showing its age in some spots. Overall, it's super solid and clean, however.

That MR2 was a great find with such low miles and no mods. It is so hard to find clean, lightly driven, "classic" imports without them being beat to crap, badly modded, or driven into the ground.

i just remembered i took this picture about a month ago. This was at the Kentucky visitor center on I71 after about four hours at around 80mph. Can't believe it actually looked that clean.

I am a loving retard. 1997 Range Rover 4.0 SE with 125k. And to be honest, it is one of the most awesome trucks ever. It is a bit of a turd on the road, but drat it is awesome at 80. The air ride was swapped to coils, which I would rather have.

Check your rear sills for rust, allot of the older sw20s over here are rotting from the inside which is pretty costly to fix if you cant weld. Its amazing how cheap you can pick one up these days, you can pick up a nice rev3 na for less than a grand if you shop around. I'm on the lookout for a nice turbo hardtop shell atm.

My sweetheart got me hooked on BMWs when he showed up with his adorable 1987 E30 convertible. After 12 years on public transit, I got a hair up my butt about 3 years ago, and have had lots of automotive adventures since. Unofficial 150 MPH Club at Bonneville Speedway Cross-country drive culminated at the redwoods forests in CA And finally some fun on the skidpad at Barber Motorsports Park!

The huge trunk and fold down rear seats really sold me on the car. I get pretty awesome mileage if i keep my foot out of it. Last road trip i averaged just over 29mpg for over 300 miles with the cruise between 70-75.

coming down the other side of this outcropping was somewhat interesting, it felt quite tippy though I'm sure I was still fairly far from a rollover.
