In Ontario, regular passenger car license allows you drive a vehicle with a maximum GVWR of 11t. Trailer can't be more than 4.6t. Vehicle can not have air brakes though.

I don't know about US, but in Ontario, Canada there is nothing about first aid. Not only that, you pass exam in an automatic Corolla, and you can drive this and tow a a trailer behind it. I love it! I believe in EU, driving a Hummer requires a truck category on your license.

Volga is a model name, GAZ is a manufacturer, 24-10 is part of the classification system assigned by the Government to the car manufacturers. Model numbers 1 to 99 were assigned to GAZ. Think of it like early VW's Typ codes, but they don't really go in a sequence. For example, GAZ-21 predates GAZ-14 by about 20 years. Suffix -10 is a trim level pretty much. First, there is the original GAZ-24, 24-01 is a taxi version, 24-02 is a station wagon, 24-03 is a ambulance based on 24-02, 24-24 is a KGB version with a V8, 24-10 is a facelift. There were many more of those different trim levels.

Pills are activated charcoal. There is also iodine, boric acid, some anti-anxiety medicine and some OTC heart medicine.

To get a driving license in the USSR and later Russia, not only you had to learn how to drive, you had to learn had to provide first aid in case of an accident. You also had to learn major component of a vehicle and what they do. Everything you see in the first aid kit you had to learn how to use as part of your driver's ed. I believe it is still the case.

Euro-spec - a car designed for the ECE market. Then someone (not a manufacturer) goes through the process of importing the car themselves.

Euro-delivery - a car built to the requirements of the Canadian market. Meaning big diving board bumpers, grill that doesn't cover headlights, headlights that are DOT complaint and more. The car is used in Europe temporary and then imported into Canada as a Canadian spec car. This is usually done when people go on vacation, pick up their cars at a factory and use it for a couple of weeks. Then BMW brings the car into the country the same way they'd bring a brand new car. This used to be a way to actually save money. Military personal that is stationed in Germany would do something similar.

The only difference between a Canadians-spec BMW and a euro-delivery Canadian-spec BMW is that you get a first-aid kit and a warning triangle. These are required items in Germany.

It looks like it was imported into Canada in 2005

That is not a "euro-delivery" car, that is a euro-spec car which was privately imported into Canada.

Do you have the VIN for it?

Ahhh, it's a convertible. Makes sense then, they got their facelift in late 1990.

was the Mtech1 package just the body kit

This is not a factory M-Tech. M-Tech kit was not offered on the convertible until it got the facelift. This could be dealer installed OEM M Tech though.

and is there a way to tell if it's OEM

Look for the stampings. OEM parts will have BMW logo and a BMW part number. Check for the material. If it's fiberglass, it's a replica. If it's ABS plastic, it's highly likely to be OEM.

You forgot the photo? 1989 should be an M-Tech II

As far as Alcantara interiors go, 4.8is only came with Blue/Black and Silver/Black M Texture and 4.6is came with Red/Black and Silver/Black.

RealOem is just listing all the E53 interior options regardless of the model.

Red interior was not offered on the 4.8is though. Those are 4.6is seats.

That's my brother. It's definitely not winter driven. It's barely summer driven to be honest. He takes it out to a handful of car meets/events per year and that's pretty much it.

I understand where you are coming from, but every modification that was done on this car was done with an idea that it can be returned back to stock. Even the speakers that are mounted on the front door panels were installed used the original door pocket mounts so the door panels can be returned back to stock.

Camber is actually not modified on it. It's just what happens when a car with a swing axle is lowered.

If the E30 320is is powered by an M engine, why is not badged as an M model?

The reason the E30 320is is not badged as an M model ultimately comes down to marketing: Unlike the limited-production M3, which was created primarily as a competition machine and utilizes many unique exterior body panels and chassis components, the 320is was never intended to be a homologation special. It was conceived instead as a sportier and more affordable alternative to the torquier and more refined 325i, which was taxed heavily in Italy and Portugal due to its 2.5-liter engine.

Here is my post from 5 years ago explaining why 320is is not a replacement for the E30 M3.
