New Here! Vehicle History/Pics (Alot)

So here is my story. I started my driving life with a '90 saab 900 in 2002 as a young 16 year old. I had that for a year and then got an '02 navy civic ex coupe. I was then able to sell that for a white '97 m3. Due to bald tires and snow runoff I ended up giving the white m3 to a guardrail and getting a blue one. Finally I needed a year round car to go to work in so I got a white '05 legacy GT. I now need some extra $ and with my GF moving to Manhattan I can't take people playing bumper cars with my Legacy so I ended up getting a cheaper but reallly clean '95 civic sedan ex. (still have my gixxer for full blown speed) Just here to share the my car love and possibly get any pointers on upkeep, most cost effective engine mods, and best looking exterior mods. Sooo yea just sayin Whats up!!

PS. What size rims look the best? 15"? 16"? 17"? and take my poll on your fav rims out of the choices i'm thinking about

Re: New Here! Vehicle History/Pics (Alot)

sl33pyriceboi, E39 would be a 5 series. If you want to get technical though, E36 would also be incorrect, if its an M3.

Re: New Here! Vehicle History/Pics (Alot)

well e36 and e39 just refer to the body/generation of the car....m3 is a more specific part...aka it would be an e36 318 or an e36 m3...but thanks! glad to be here
