    Default Finally pics, 95 525it

    Great commuter. I'm not going to modify it much, as I want to keep the cushy ride. If I want really sporty I'll get an M3 or something.

    1995 525it
    108k miles
    Options:
    Heated seats
    Leather
    Sunroof
    Remote entry

    Upgrades:
    16" e39 wheels for summer
    15" stock baskeweaves for snow
    e36 M3 steering wheel
    Stealth sub install, Sony head unit, factory speakers/amp

    I have a set of new motor mounts and tranny mounts that I'll put in when time permits. Next on the list is thrust arms and probably lower control arms. Then the guibo and center bearing. It's actually in great shape, just want it 100%. Eventually I'll probably get the factory lowering springs and a set of Koni's, but I've got a lot of priorities before I get to that one...

    What a pretty color! Dang that looks good....nice find. I thought those wheels looked familair, and they DO look great with that car! You better be running the hub centrics with them.

    Looks good!

    Not sure of the exact color name, not sure where the paint code sticker is on the wagon. Interestingly enough, when I called TireRack for the hub-centric rings, as soon as I told the guy I needed rings, he already knew the part number, there must be a lot of demand for the e39-e34 rings.

    I thought about getting 17" wheels for the car, but since I don't want to lower is more than 3/4" at most, and because I want to use it for touring rather than sports the 16" wheels fit the look better. Heck, I might even leave the ride height stock to make sure I have enough clearance for snow in winter, but I think a shock upgrade would be required down the road.

    Default The color sticker is on the shock tower inside the engine bay....

    In a roundabout way I kinda already mentioned your wagon's color in my post.......calypso red

    Default Beautiful wagon, looks like the color of Quentins's car, I don't

    see too many calypsorot around here, mostly in e32's.
