Default Picked up the new ride, *pic*

Finally got rid of the rex, and decided to get something a little more challanging...




94 325i, 150,000 miles, but clean as hell. I already went through half the wiring in the car to check for any wear(common) and its looking good. Plan is to swap in a 328 or m3 setup, engine, tranny, etc...

Heres the old rex...




Now go buy my stuff in the classifieds, i need some fundage....

Beemer looks ballin'

I was going to get one myself a little while back because they look so good. But performance #'s out of them are hard to come by. Way too much work to make even decent power.

Even the M3 model engine isn't that great. They had a build-up of one in Grassroots motorsports and even after a ton of work it barely made over 200 whp.

Nice looking though.

Your wallet will hate you but your credit card company will love every minute you own that car. Personally the car is nice but I would of stuck with the rex. Looked really nice and clean. So how much did you get it for?

yeah they're not a dime store ride like a Honda, but you can strap a roots blower on one, or turbo it for a reasonable price and they can made to corner so hard it'll suck your brains outta yer ear!! very plush inside too, most important though I think every one here will give you the yuppie of the year award for rockin the BMW

Euro Trash FTW!!!
