LOL...I own a...B......M......W.....
Now don't be mad at me. I'm still going to buy a GS in the next 2 years after I buy my house. I got a 1996 328is coupe 5 speed for $1500 because it didn't start....Well 11 hours later it runs great...
I'll upload pictures later to show you guys.

So I'm getting ready to buy the car...and I'm testing things out. I test out the emergency flashers...and all of a sudden I hear the damn fuel pump go on!!!!...Let me tell you folks there is a big difference between a solid blue wire with a green stripe and a solid green wire with a blue stripe...I guess the previous owner didn't know that.

It needs a lot of work but I think it's worth it...considering what I paid for it.
Here is what I have already ordered:
CAI
Short shifter
Clutch stop
Angel eyes 1 piece black headlights
LED tailights
AC Schnitzer: **** ****, floor mats, pedals, e-brake
front and rear Strut bars
SS braided brake lines
Drilled and slotted brembo's
17" M3 graphite wheels with a polished lip...Manaray you will be proud!
It is already slammed 2 inches with H&R's (I think)
There is more that I ordered I just can't think of it right now...I'll let you know tomorrow, I have the list at work
Still shopping around for:
3.15 LSD
Passenger side door panel
Passenger side speaker kick panel
Turbo kit (Christmas Gift)
Exhaust system (Same time I get the turbo kit)
Carbon fiber hood
Carbon fiber "eyebrows"
Carbon fiber trunk
Carbon fiber lip spoiler
Wide body fenders (already found them)

E36 M3 mirrors
Things that will get fixed this weekend:
AC System

that's a great deal you picked up there, but look out for quality issues!! bmw's dont come near the dependability of toyota/lexus.... the car i owned before my gs4 was an 87 bmw 325....that tiny car had an inline six too, so it wasnt in any way a slug...but by the time i got rid of the thing at 175K miles, almost EVERYTHING (alternator, tranny, catalytic, fuel TANK, radiator, fans, belts, thermostat, electrical wiring, o2 sensors, distributor cap) had failed and had to be replaced! bmw's are expensive to maintain! good luck to ya!
