I'm selling the rockin' rabbit. I had intentions of keeping the E30 nice by DDing this, but I figure I will just keep driving the E30 and use the money from this to put back into the E30. I bought the car about 6 months ago and did a lot of work to it. The engine runs real strong and pulls nicely. Idles silky smooth. Gets awesome mpgs brah. The ride is really smooth too and awesome even at highway speeds. The interior is in great shape despite the dash having a few cracks in it and the seats having some staining. Pretty radical wooded shift knob too. No rips in the seats and they are supa comfy. The paint is in good shape as well. It looks better in the pictures, but it is still good. I polished up the hood to see what the paint was capable of, and it can look really nice. There is hardly any rust on the whole car. There are a few surface spots and the only spot that really stands out to me is under the duck bill on the front valence, as seen in the pictures. There is a leak at the injector pump that causes the fuel from the filter forward to leak out, getting air in the line. Spraying some starter fluid in the intake causes it to start right up and pull the fuel into the injector pump. The ODO turns over every 100k, so I believe it has about 140k on it. I have a big stack of service receipts too. I just can't justify having two cars in college. Parts are also incredibly cheap for these cars. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
