analog clock > 13 button obc

but ive put in map light, sport seats, is radio, premium sound and tweeter pods, mtech lilluminated knob and boot, is spoiler and lip, euro grilles, smilies...etc

i obviously dont have divies, but were poppies stopped after '89?

[X Mon]

Yup...but the '89 holds the resale value....



Every option but heated seats... (pending now that the 5spd swap is done on the touring).

Yes poppies where after '89 but '88s came standard with them.

All non air bag cars had pop outs. They went away in '90.

speaking of poppies, the ones you sent me last year were missing the internal gaskets, i installed them this summer and was thinkin...this cant be right lol. i keep putting it off though...the gaskets i had dibs on i should be picking from a member up at bav auto...hopefully

[X Mon]

They were in the box...I made a special trip just to a yard just to get some gaskets. Did you pitch em by accident?

Davey, Davey, Davey-

Pretty sure that you can't even get a 90 with all of the standard equipment that was and is on my 88. On the other hand I have plastic bumpers on Die Rote Ratte. And no stinkin' air bag! Best of both worlds.

nope..i had the gaskets that go in the actual opening, but i guess theres another gasket that sits inbetween the window frame and the glass itself that keeps it all tight and together..so 2 gaskets per window.

what i meant was ive pretty much added most the crap myself...so its not factory. but then again dinan isnt exactly original either

matter of opinion. personally i prefer the plastic bumpers so if i got an 88 i'd have to swap them and i hate cosmetic crap like that..

[red88ix]

I prefer to think of the plastic bumpers on my 88 as cosmetic enhancement. By the way is that a PINK e30 in your signature? Your pink e30? If so, I hate cosmetic crap like that.

By the way, while I prefer having the best factory equipped ix that was produced, I was not putting down any other year. Generally the later the car the lower the miles on average. Not a bad thing at all. And after all aren't we ix owners above all that elitist BS that is thrown around by the ordinary e30 crowd?

[davey101]

d after all aren't we ix owners above all that elitist BS that is thrown around by the ordinary e30 crowd?

true true...but we do need some sort of internal gang rivalry to keep us on our toes. wouldnt be fun if we all agreed on everything now would it

and nice signature kish...really brings out the redness of your eyes
