Damn who makes that body? It looks really good! I drive an E30 (318is, I wish it was the M3, but my folks have an E36 M3 so its close enough ;)) so itd be cool to have an E30 body.

It's simple but really clean!

Let me guess its 190mm :o

[ajg]

Thanks, yes it's 190mm and I got the disc brakes from yokomo. My family also has a few bimmers, mostly E36 (see last few pics).
Here's some more I took today:

$3.49 Kyosho plastic rims ....... ;)

[ajg]

Actually they are yokomo wheels, but they do cost $3.39. The reason for cheap wheels, the M3 gets alot of use. At least the tires are some nice belted radials.

[NitroBoy24]

I was going to say I like that dakar yellow M3 in the pic :cool: Daytona violet is also a sexy color, and I've seen some really nice alpine white M3's also..quite the stable.

Dude... get a piece of fine sandpaper and run it lightly around the edge of your wheel wells and it'll take those curly fries right offa there.
:D

Nice ride... Bimmers are my fave car. If I had a magic wand, I'd wave it and make a black pre-Bangle 540i appear in my driveway.
;)

Your last pic with the front wheels turned hard left reminded me of a photo I took of my '74 Opel Manta.

[ajg]

Thanks, and nice opel. If I ever get really bored I'll fix the wheel wells, I don't care about them too much. :)

[ducati777]

ajg: really cool body! Bet you'll be mad if head on it into something....

[ajg]

Yeah, luckily I've never hit anything. I'd probably have to replace the whole front grill if I did.

Here's some action shots from a while ago:

ajg:

You pictures take me back almost 20 years to when I first saw an E30 M3. I lusted after that car like no other!!! I was too young (and too poor) to afford one. Now, I can afford one, but, time has passed on and the E30 is no longer.

Sigh....

Oh well, thx for the memories.

[ajg]

Any time, it's my favorite car...for now.

Put on some smaller wheels:
