Congratz G :thumb: you were looking for a clean 328i for a long time & came across this rare beauty imp: Car looks very clean & thats a fantastic colour :wub:

Dont think I can ever part with the E36 chassis. I love it to bits.

Here are some interior shots as promised. The sports seats are electric as well :rollsmile:

Center trim wood is peeling. Want to find a replacement from an M3 and do all the wood in piano black.

Footwell lights work

Cards are still good. Chrome handles have a couple scratches. Vinyl isnt pulling off which is great!

Rear seats are great.

I HAVE AN ARMREST!!!!! ITS SOOOO GOOOOD!

Note to self: 80 isnt necessarily 80...

Rick540... You will see where you are needed here.

That shitty Headunit will eventually be replaced by an original business or professional stock system. Like the Late model M3's have.

Thats all for now.

The MAF problem turned out to not be a maf problem in the end.
Tested another MAF and the problem remained.

Some research later and the problem was narrowed down to the PCV. I have just got back after replacing it (DIY of course) and taking a test drive and am happy to report she is better than ever!!!
Rock Solid idle and no more power fluctuations!

I AM SOOOOO HAPPY!!!

[LaurenL]

Aah I know I've been a hater about the coupe and the auto and what-not but WOW, you really got yourself a beauty there! And honestly the only reason I don't have as many pictures is cause I can't even semi compete with the sparkly, perfection going on there
