Mskembo's Evolution Of the W203 Thread
Haha no jk. My first car is my w203 currently.. why not just get her a Prius hehehe.
when i said you have a canvas to paint i didnt mean it literally lol, it was rhetorical for you have a nice car to mod in general 
better be careful letting the board know you have a 16 year old daughter seeing as how we have a handful her age, lol. No Trini you cant have her #

I'm seriousely considering a C230 coupe for her. If I can find the right deal that's what I'll go for. However I do have an 1985 325e that needs some love that I could just fix up for her.

I would never buy a Prius, not that I have anything against saving money on gas, but I hate the whole Green Cult. Who knows what I'll do, but I have 6 months to figure it out.

You should check out my friends car shop he works at. If you dont see what you like he'll go to the auction and get it for you probably. I help out at the shop sometimes picking up cars for him. Here's the link... it'll give you a reason to come to my side of town

I would think a civic/accord sedan would be much more reasonable. If you have to go further upscale, a Lexus IS would be my recommendation, though personally I can't stand any Lexi for myself.

I know Xhale, I know...but you should have seen how dirty it was before then!
Tommy, I hate rice burners... hate them. I'd rather just fix up my e30 for her, that car is the best car I've ever had. 280,000mi and still runs like a raped ape.

I'm sure she'll appreciate the BMW badge as she waits for the tow truck. 
If it were me, I'd fix up the E30 for myself; that bodystyle has always been a favorite of mine. Well, not as good as a 3.0csi or 2002tii, but up there. I'll take your word for how well a raped ape runs.

Fast, it means fast
I really enjoyed that car, and it only left me on the side of the road once. That wasn't the car's fault it was my running over a freaking BIG screw. I need to finish putting the M20 engine back in her. I had an M50 engine in, but sold that to a friend a couple of months ago. She'd got new breaks, new suspension, new steering rack and pump, and a new blower motor. All she needs is a new turn signal regulator, a couple of bushings, and some paint. It shouldn't be to bad.

I'm currently working out of town all week long, and it's filthy out here. So since I bought a new camera tonight, I decided to show you some pictures of my filthy C240!

Some more pics that I took last night... I got a little artsy, and may have to do the same pictures when she's clean.



Then I woke up this morning, and the scene had changed a little!

Today we find out if the "S" in DWS really does what it says!

I'll definitely do a before and after shoot when all this crap clears up! Especially since I got a new camera (which I am enjoying the crap out of!)
Took some pics of the Conti DWS's tracks it left in the snow. Believe it or not, they did quite well.
