Title: elpatriot8 91' 318iS
Post by: elpatriot8 on March 12, 2014, 08:19:16 PM

Just bought this gem today. No rust ANYWHERE ON THE BODY and has the original M42. It needs a few things but its an awesome conditions. This is my first post here in this forum. I have a built 2004 Subaru STi, but wanted something different and fun. Overall looking for advice, help and great friends.  ;D :)

Welcome!

She is nice.
Where did the rear spoiler come from?
Exhaust is unusual too?

The exhaust is an aftermarket, not sure of brand. The spoiler I believe is from the E30 M3, I might be wrong though.

The slowest car I have ever driven I am still driving daily. a 1976 MGB... It may do 0-60 in 14-15secs? It's rated at like 30hp?! :)
