Hello, I'm Damon.. I'm a transfer from next door..

So after a short break and owning a 2007 Mercedes e350, 1998 BMW M3 Sedan, and a 2010 Mini Cooper S, the last couple of months brought me back to BMW first with a 1988 325e then 2 weeks ago picking up a 328iS from jersey, the this last week getting a 2008 135i.

So I'm glad to be back part of the gang. I'll post up photos later.

It's m3bs old car.

Wow, a real Bimmer guy, hooah. Welcome.

Looking forward to pics (especially those 3ers - didn't realize that the E36 iS's were even ever sold in the US - shows what I know, I guess).

Pics up... The is was sold only for 2 years I think. I confirmed the VIN on real OEM because I didn't think they came to the US also.

Info on the cars:
E30: currently has KYB Shocks, Ebaich Springs, and a radio that works. Ha.. I have a set of 16" Drag DR-37 wheels at the house for it waiting to buy tires for them. I tucked the front and rear bumper on it and I am in the process of building a front BBK for the car. I also am acquiring all the parts for the 327i conversion.

E36: It is sitting on coilovers, e46 wheels, just replaced the steering wheel with a m tech 3 wheel, m3 front bumper, ordering some bbs replicas, m3 mirrors and m side trim for the car, needs a little maintenance done on it but overall just like the 30 it runs like a champ.

The 1: JIC magic coilovers, HR front sway bar, cross strut bar and jb3. Don't know what I am going to start with on this car.

So here are a couple of the 1 and the 3 of them..





All 3 are at work right now, it's going to be fun getting them all home. Haven't been home for 2 weeks now. hoping for a long weekend next week.

Correction, all 2 door e36 coupes sold in the united states were badged as "is". For the 1999 model year, all sport package equipped cars were fitted with M-Tech bumpers, steering wheel and side skirts. From 1995 to EOP, the M-Tech body package was available through the BMW accessory catalog for any model.
I had a 1997 328ic that was fitted with M-Tech through the accessory catalog:

Sometimes I can't turn down a great deal.... And sometimes those deals come in threes.

I couldn't be happier with my selection.
