Vintage homecoming for mlytle

[jgerock]

Anyone remember seeing this European E30 320 4-door all the way down toward the circle? It used to be owned by Marshall Lytle. We pulled it out of a guy's front yard in Falls Church a few years ago. The new owner installed a brand new interior and did some additional cleaning of the paint and viola! I believe the paint color is karminrot.

I believe it was keeping time! Also note the manual windows. Car has E30 M3 front control arms (aluminum) and other goodies that make it a great high-speed car.

I noticed the Euro 320i 4-door and pointed it out to Mike Self. I don't have his uncanny knowledge of 2002's, but I can be helpful at times!

I saw this car as well. It was really neat, the colour is very eye catching. Karminrot was definitely rare colour. I think we sold one car in that colour from my father's dealership in Canada. I wonder if that colour was even available in the states.

Great job of resurecting it!
