For real though that looks hella clean. I imagine it has been meticulously maintained as well. How much longer do you plan to drive it for?

Right on

Man I read through all that just to find on the last page that you sold the 325! You go through cars like I go through socks lol. That thing was so mean looking.. you planning on building up this one as much or leaving it clean and stock looking?

Those are actually 95-96' side markers.

Just messing with you. That's actually a very nice looking Bimmer!

If I ever have to sell any of my cars, the 325is will be the last to go.

Yep, they got skinnier in 97. I know because I tried to fit a pair of them and they nearly fell through I didn't actually put 97 side markers up there, but I see where you got it from

I'm impressed.

It looks like $15k+ worth of work to bring it back to new!

That's the original paint? Hard to believe.

Keep it up!
