it was manual

but it was only a 530i

Not exactly quick, but still fun with a manual.

It still had 240hp IIRC - it wasn't that slow but yeah nowhere near as fast as the 540i

still a beautiful car though. Mine was in black too

black is the only color to get a BMW in imo

my buddy and I are gonna restore a 300z Special Edition Turbo we bought while we were in highschool when he finishes grad school

it's pearl white just like this one

Nice, I like all of the Z-cars to various levels., and I like build threads/videos/stories as well.

I'll keep yall posted

It's gonna be a few months until we get to it

but we plan on keeping it as stock as possible

we don't want to turn it into a drift rocket or fuck it up with some sort of body kit

Yeah, It has nice simple lines stock, and if you're not going with crazy tires/wheels/drop then stuff like overfenders will just mess it up

Interesting fact, Nissan licensed its non-popup headlights for the second gen 300ZX Z32:

For use in the facelifted 1998-2001 Lamborghini Diablo:

With a little carbon fiber strip at the top covering up the Nissan logo <:trump:284711336934375425>

the second gen 300ZX sucked though

It couldn't take corners

but the headlights were shared with a ferari model IIRC

Nigga I just told you

And yeah, it was heavy and hard to work on compared to competitors

oh lol

I wasn't paying attention

I see most of these Zs riced out by mexicans in my hood

they usually look like shit

🤤
