Well I just bought my first BMW. It's a 1987 325i Convertible. 5sp with 187k. I was looking for a fun weekend type car and I saw this one day at Dunkin Donuts for sale. Bought it 3 days later! It's in great shape as far as I can tell. The interior is almost perfect except for a 1 inch tear on the drivers seat and some typical leather cracking/wear on the sides of the seats. The cruise and A/C don't work and there's a problem with the door locks (typical from what I hear for this car). Engine-wise, it seems strong, altho some of the previous records the owner gave me said they found oil in the plugs and the radiator is leaking at the seal. It runs strong and seems like a fun car!

I'd like to maybe do some work to it and wanted to know if anyone had any thoughts for upgrades/improvements or should I just keep the way it is. I included a couple of pictures of my new "baby" :) thanks!!

I've been reading the boards and there's definately a lot of mods for this car. Any thoughts on what I could start doing? First, I was thinking about a new chip, and the people I bought it from said the rims were bent so I would eventually need new rims. Just trying to decide if I should stay stock, or get something else.
