    Looks good! Interior looks to be in very nice condition for an older car.

    Get some 15" rims and it would be perfect. Those dub's (or whatever size they are) look like shit.


    Just my opinion. But that car looks nicely put together regardless.

    ignorant statement. an e30 is a near cult car that most would expect to keep true to the BMW heritage instead of "ruining" with an old school v8 Chevy under the hood. An eta with a Chevy stuffed in there with old school taste is plain tacky in my opinion. Add on the M emblem, cracked front fog, half shot front paint, 17"s on what should be 16"s with a slight drop if super-conservative. Its not the tradition e30 and shows its large differences. Sorry if my comment offended you, but oh well I've got an opinion. I hope your ownership of the car will take it in a new direction whatever that may be, but as is, it hurts me eyeballs.

    would look better without that snow plow of a front lip, but other than that...... pretty damn cool. Dont listen to the dripping vaginas of these manufacturer purest... everything is better with a chevy engine in it.

    you need to complete the transformation by trading those rims for some draglites, seeing a beamer on skinnies would make me happy in my pants.

    I have seen and ridden in the car myself. The paint isn't too bad. For the price paid, it is a good deal. He could sell the engine for what he paid for and the wiring was done professionally and not a rat's nest. I told him that the car sits too high and needs a better suspension setup since it on some unknown brand shock and Eibach springs. It also needs smaller rims since 17's are too big for an E30 in aesthetics. I also mentioned to him that E30tech will eat him alive if he ever joins.

    All in all, the car is overall clean and fun.
    (919): so I was just driving high and I stopped to let a pinecone cross the road because I thought it was a hedgehog.

    I'd personally prefer an EFI swap, but I guess the carb is ok.

    The Interior is so much cleaner than the outside…man it's spot less. I can't decide how I feel about that 388 in there….So it's american…and import….at the same time. Great pick up though. Forgive me for not knowing these cars, but what are the arrows on the center console right next to the radio?

    No need to tell you what the car needs, I see the interior was refurbished to go with the swap.

    Yea dude you should be ashamed for ruining that car, I mean e30's are so rare and valuable I just dont see how you could do that. Lololol awesome car, love the interior. I would definitely find some new rims and go a bit lower though.
