This is my 1985 318i 2-door. It isn't fast, but it loves corners, is fun to drive, and doesn't break down. It's got over 210,000 miles, and has been driven from California to Wisconsin and back a few times (the previous owner lived in California and bought the car there, but his mother lived in Southern Wisconsin).

I also have a 1997 Kawasaki 250R, which has its own page here

You'll notice that some pictures have a second foglight, while others don't. The plastic cover that holds the light together broke, and I can't find any place that will sell me just the plastic cover, without buying a set of new lights.

Wolfe2x7's 1985 BMW 3-Series I really like the styling of a classic E30 tail. The newer E30 taillights (post-87) just don't do it for me.

Wolfe2x7's 1985 BMW 3-Series Here's a closer look. You can see my (D) sticker (used in Europe to denote that the owner lives in Germany), and can just barely make out my Nurburgring Nordschleife sticker, which I bought when I went there.

Wolfe2x7's 1985 BMW 3-Series I wish the missing foglight wasn't so noticeable.

Wolfe2x7's 1985 BMW 3-Series I've used a modified version of this photo as a signature in forums.

My current plans are to keep an eye out for a replacement foglight case, and to run this thing for as long as it will go.
