    E30 M3: My Garage Queen

    I took advantage of the 60 degree weather and washed the garage queen. Snapped a couple shitty pics. Brief description to save some questions.

    - 1989 M3
    - S52 powered
    - Dogleg Tranny
    - AC Schnitzer's 17x8.5 front, 17x10 rear
    - Ground Controls with Corrado Koni's

    Future Plans
    - Smoked Hella Ellips
    - Spray the kidneys black
    - Evo III front lip
    - Adjust suspension a little
    - Get different floormats
    I'm probably forgetting a few things I want to do.....

    Dogleg trans. :p

    Not sure about my floormats.

    Car looks good but those floormats are an extreme eye hazard

    PS do you ever venture down to Delaware? We have at least 5 E30 M3 down here that are equally as sick.

    By far the sexiest wheels AC Schnitzer ever produced. Love the white on tan too.

    And just to reinforce the point; BMW's and diamond plate don't mix. EVER.

    Once you get moving in a road race, you aren't likely to go back into 1st until the race is over. So the 4 gears used most are closer together with a dogleg.

    It aides race cars to keep 2nd and 3rd being straight back and forward and keeps reverse out of the chances of being hit when looking to slam into 1st. At least thats what my Dad told me a few years ago when I asked.
