We all have big toys too right? Show off your rides! This is one of my big toys I finished it last year after it sat in the garage for almost 9 years. Flashback to the 90's! Lol

I think I posted this in another thread on here, but I'll show them again.

1980 BMW M535i
1987 BMW 325is

Image

daily driver:
2003 BMW 540i 6spd

Image

Edit, wrecked the 540i rear ending someone nov 2013 and replaced it with this, a 2008 550i 6spd. 360hp, night vision camera, heated steering wheel plus heated front and rear seats, msport package, head up display, and a lot more goodies.

Image

Edit: March 2015, Sold the 550i, daily driving a 2004 325xi Touring 5spd manual for MN winter duty and general all-aroundness (i.e. I don't care about door dings!).

Image

Also some more updates on my 1980 M535i's bodywork and paint restoration. We're done with all new panels throughout and paint in Glasurit single stage. Now I've started the reassembly.

Image
Image
Image


edit June 2016: The 1980 M535i is still in restoration (hell it seems) but I wanted a convertible and found this. It's a 2012 M3 convertible in Speed Yellow (custom ordered color).
