The latter 3 pix remind me of my many many trips to Michigan.

Did you ever get under Julian's car?
Sorry to say it was a rust chariot lol.. Not to a huge extent but it was there.
And why are you comparing m-tech e30s that get driving 2 months of the year to e28's with 500,000 miles and spotless undercarriages in Cali? Let's see how fast that m-tech moldings start to fall off at the first sign of salt

lol. yup, Julian's car was a beauty, but had rust creeping out on practically every panel. California has 1970s civics with shiny silver facotry exhausts... nuff said. Look at that 528e's exhaust. So clean, and most likely the facotry original too

I think I've seen his car more times than two of you combine and I have no idea what you are talking about.
BTW got any pic of undercarriage of those cars, since you are saying they are spotless.

Ok, ok, i'm SORRY...ALL our cars are junk...we have nothing good here.
So why dont you move to the US then?
And this is a stupid argument to have, as we are comparing apples and oranges...I can tell you there are LOTS of shitty cars in California, more then in TO for sure...Just because TV shows the good parts, its not all that...

I don't see how it's apples to oranges, seems like a pretty fair comparison to me.
And to say there are more shittier cars in california than in TO is kinda retarded,

I was in california, did 1000 miles of driving there last week actually. If you think the cars there are less clean then here.... well, you need some glasses Fil.
The difference is, alot of people don t care about their cars there, yet because of climate, they still remain shiney rust free and clean. Mechanicals aside, california cars > canada cars. Sorry

I can vouch for my boys: BOTH of those E30s are driven in the winter. Maybe not 365 days, but they both have winter tire setups and see snow.

you guys need to get your fact straight before using other's cars as examples.
have YOU ever gotten under my car? Yes, there's rust at the bottom of the doors, where it's common, but compared to most E34's out there, there is not a lot.
Go prove your point with another car.

ROFL...if the cops start giving him problems, that would be the LAST thing on the list! Too loud, too low, too fast, etc etc etc!
