1997 BMW 328i 4door 5spd
I bought this car in August of 2003 with 63,000 miles on it. I originally planned on keeping it stock, but as time has gone on I've added some things to it.

madd_fajita's 1997 BMW 3-SeriesHere is the car in it's current state. I recently painted the brake calipers blue, much better then rust.

madd_fajita's 1997 BMW 3-SeriesJuly 6th 2004, just put on Millie Miglia MMII-2 Sport 17 inch wheels. I also got the windows tinted and put on smoked signals.

madd_fajita's 1997 BMW 3-SeriesI think it looks pretty good. The windows aren't tinted too much, so I don't feel like a sketchy mofo.

madd_fajita's 1997 BMW 3-SeriesThis is the car when I picked it up at the dealers. Hampden Auto Center in Hampden. Jeff Rawclffe looked for 2 months to find the perfect car for me. He succeeded.

madd_fajita's 1997 BMW 3-SeriesAs seen from first opening the trunk. That's the old Alpine Type-R in an Alpine box, I took it out because it left me with no trunk space. On the left is an Alpine MRV-450 V12 amp.

madd_fajita's 1997 BMW 3-SeriesA closer look at the Alpine MRV-450 V12. It amps the factory BMW speakers with a custom crossover network.

madd_fajita's 1997 BMW 3-Series This is the new JL 10w3v2 sub in a custom box. As seen through the back seat.

madd_fajita's 1997 BMW 3-SeriesView from the driver's seat. Visible is the mileage, 67,905 miles at the time, and the Clarion DXZ835MP head unit.

madd_fajita's 1997 BMW 3-SeriesHere is a look at the Apple iPod 20gb mp3 player, and the connection to the Clarion head unit.

madd_fajita's 1997 BMW 3-SeriesHere you can see the stock 5.25" (in the kick panel), the 4" and .75"s are in the door.
