It sickened me. I finally turned 16 and went to the family member who at the time owned the shop to purcahse it and restore it as best I could at 16, but they had just sold it one of the painters... I was sick... but it worked out 20 years later...

Congrats on owning a clean original, the one that started the dream for a lot of people on this board...

I randomly search for a clean E30 M3 here in Chicago once in awhile. I have a rather difficult time, hehe. I hope to one day restore my own to Sport Evolution status
