so i recently sold the tdi and needed to pick up a daily that would entertain me yet be refined enough to not annoy me. i was suppsed to be picking up an 01 330i but after quite the adventure it turned out the car was a pile of shit and the dealer was a fucking piece of shit scammer (possibly from EA but relocated to north carolina later in life…lol)
well i was soured on the idea of an e46 after that so i decided to look into something a bit older…

so i decided to take a trip to check it out yesterday and turns out the car was exactly how it was described by the seller. no suprises this time. so we struck a deal and i had a fun ride home in my first bmw.
the car is great. needs nothing. i just hate the clear tails/sidemarkers/corners so ill be picking up some smoked ones but other than that i dont intend to fuck this car up at all with other fggt bullshit. im going to try REAL HARD to just drive it and not put wheels/coils/etc… etc… on it.
here are some pics
