[QUOTE="futobuta, post: 28175, member: 25062"] Hello everyone. I'm here to introduce to you guys my "new" acquisition, a 16yr old E36 328i. Since so many of you guys like to name your cars, I shall name mine "小白", or Small White (affectionately). Hehehe. I have been following this forum for quite some time, learning more about BMW cars. After hearing so many good things about its inline 6 engine, I thought it is best that I get one to try out myself. Couldn't afford the newer E90/92, so went with the E36.The car feels a lot heavier than my other rides.... and it is really low (I really have to slow down on bumps). Some rattling sound here and there (expected for a car of this age).[IMG]http://i582.photobucket.com/albums/ss261/futobuta/ET3G0014.jpg[/IMG]All credits go to the previous owner who kept it in the condition that it is in now.I know white is hard to maintain.... but I'm trying my best.[IMG]http://i582.photobucket.com/albums/ss261/futobuta/ET3G9779.jpg[/IMG]Buttshot![IMG]http://i582.photobucket.com/albums/ss261/futobuta/ET3G0017.jpg[/IMG]Here's what I wanted to tryout, BMW's inline-6 engine.....[IMG]http://i582.photobucket.com/albums/ss261/futobuta/ET3G9798.jpg[/IMG]I love what the previous owner did with the interior..... the red colour adds some freshness to the 16yr old interior.
