scroll down to the interior pictures. I'd never seen manual climate contorl on an e38- so I thought it was kind of cool.

Sure, they even had 728i 6-cyl cars with 5sp MT and cloth seats.

Yep. I've seen an e38 w/ a 5sp. For some reason, I get a kick out of seeing the stripped down euro versions of the models they sell here. I once rode in an e38 taxi in Munich-- although it was actually pretty nicely equipped-- had leather/nav/etc so it wasn't that interesting.

THey just released a version of the e65 w/ the 3.0 liter 6 from the 330/530 btw.

The quality of the pics or the content? Compared to what you see on e46fanatics, the mods on this guy's car are pretty tame. I don't personally care for any of them, but they're not over the top bling-bling atleast.

The clears on the back of that M3 are pretty offensive. :D

oooh. I didn't even notice the M3. Yeah, that's pretty bad.

And as long as we're on the subject of the e38-- can I propose a moment of silence for the passing of one of the most beautiful sedans ever made? :bawling:
