Thanks.
I have more photos froam today. Alpina spoiler is on and the engine bay have been cleened. And I put on some polish. Cleened up a little in the trunk to. Lemmon spray takes away the tectyl that was sprayed where it dont have to be. But the camera is still in the trunk of the car.

Deep respect! What a nice car!
Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall. Torque is how far you take the wall with you.

Well, as you like photos. I drive the 30 kilometer to get the camera. Here are some photos so you can sleep good tonight. Dream of how it was back in the good old time.

I love it "BMW 323i 6 cylindrig kjörglädje"

The car looks wonderful as always!

But, to be honest and I'm glad that's only my own opinion, I'd leave the 323i pretty much stock. That leaves room to equip the interior with sports seats in original BMW fabric and I would not fit the Alpina front spoiler myself... the Alpina interior and spoiler can be found on the B6 in a few months (maybe more :P ) leaving you with a great set of cars, one fully original and one fully Alpina. But that's my taste and point of view of course...

I was waiting for that. The spoiler stays on and will look better when i lower the car a bit. The intrioer is temporary and will go back in the other car. But I think this is better on the eurotrip i am going on.

:lol: well I already expected the interior to be destined for the B6 but I can imagine you want those seats for your world tour :wink:

Leaves the front spoiler... I definitely like the Alpina spoiler but you will have another one of these... all you need is patience. I think the stock E21 nose looks quite good, that's why I removed my BBS front spoiler as well. But as I wrote, it all comes down to different tastes and I'm glad tastes do differ or we'd all be driving a Vectra :mrgreen:

BBS is wrong, just spoilers. Alpina is right, makes cars.
And I drive a VECTRA, and that is wrong. I know, but its cheep.

I am jealous of your car mate, it is really beautiful!!!
And yes, maybe lowering it a bit would make it look even greater!!!
Jeroen, do you still have the BBS front spoiler?
would you sell it to me please?

Now now there is another good e21 spoiler ... the hartge :twisted:

I do like the alpina spoiler ... the interior I have to agree with Jeroen wouldn' fit that in an original 323i ... but I can understand you did it to sit better on the europe tour :wink:

Lowering plans I like 8)
