thanks for the compliments guys.

paint what black MS BOND? the shadowline round the windows? iS's come with shadowline, i didnt paint it. to be honest, i usually like the chrome trim too. On my old car, it set off the chrome lip on the wheels beautifully.

Andrew, the NZ E30 plate is on a 1987 lachsilber convertible 325, it is often parked near my house, but i haven't seen it for a couple of months.

Jake, your car owns mine.

just sport model really.. some nice little extras... For the 318is it means it gets the m42 instead of m40 i think.

Im pretty sure all it stands for is coupe.

Its supposed to mean sports, and it does coz it makes it a coupe. Nothing is changed other than the doors.

Suspension etc only gets affected i think in E46 models where you get stiffer springs...

SO yes. IS means coupe. (its kinda misleading, but yeah)

^ from e36 onwards yes.....in the e30 the only iSs were 325iS and 318iS....they shared the same chassis....using uprated M-Tech suspension...down here, and in the UK/Europe the 325iS got the M-TechII body kit aswell

edit: 'cept for the e36 4dr 318iS which was a homolgation special.
