I do like your (own made?) centerconsole!
It seems OEM 8)
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.

Hey,

I know that Gerrit used the centerconsole of a E28. It is almost a perfect fit.

That console isnt from an E28, cos i have one that i fitted and dont look nothing like it, looks like handmade but real good one!!! unless its from another car which i wouldnt mind having some infor on it!!!

You can also see the door cards, as the window winder has been blanked off so its had some interior trim mods done to it..

I am loving it! I saved the first photo as my computer wallpaper.

BY THE WAY, your English is better than many people I went to school with.

:c)

The important thing is our mutual love of beautiful automobiles.
And your BMW is certainly beautiful!
Good to see Finland drives on the CORRECT side of the road. (Wink.)
