I was searching around eBay and came across one of my car's cousins (Alpineweiss / Grey). Looks pretty clean. eBay Auction

A little higher, but if I bought that car, I'd probably overhaul the cooling sytem anyway. For what it cost me in parts to do mine, it's worth the peace of mind to take care of it before there's any problems. I'd surely have it checked out prior.Originally Posted by dacoyote
Good catch, I never saw it.

The real question is... how long had it been running to get to that point.Originally Posted by uscharalph
Also.. where does one get those cool cup holders... I bought some off bimmerd00d but don't like them (they are back for sell).

8:16 am...cant be that hot! Besides unless he just got done runnin really hard that temp needle dont look like a good sign at all... it still shouldnt go past half way even if he beat the piss outta it.

...it was only 92 here on 8/11 (day of listing), with a low of 72. I'd bet shot fan clutch, or wrong thermostat.
It's close to me (about 30 miles), but I can't get there before the auction ends unfortunately. ASC, heated seats, odd combination for a NC car. Probably limited slip as well.

the temp needle is in the same spot mine was when my thermostat decided not to work properly
but everyone talks of the needle sitting just left of 12 oclock... i've never seen mine there! it's always just right of 12 oclock
doesn't bother me, but i seem like the only one
The needle doesn't bother me either, unless it's the head gasket causing it.Originally Posted by Randell

After looking at that auction, I can now seriously say that (in my opinion) leaving the lower trim black makes the car look old![]()
