    Hey pop the resistor pack out and clean it with some contact cleaner and it will probably work fine and you can take that off the bad list. I did it over a year ago and its been great ever since. Really clean car.
    Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.
    This is the internet. Just make something up.

      someone buy this, drop it on some GC coils, and slap on some staggered ESM 002s! (and an iS lip)

        Cleaner than the last set of pics, have I seen this car in person Sam? I don't remember / think so. You should bring it to one of the meets if it doesn't sell soon, though I wish you luck on the sale

        PM me for detailing services in the Longmont / Boulder Area in Colorado!

          i don't think you or any one of the dudes has seen this is person, because its not tagged so I can't drive it anywhere.

              Already has the AC out, perfect time for a turbo.

                  Last time I was at 12,000 feet was when I took my old 530i out for a trip to Breckenridge. I stopped on the top of Loveland pass (what is that 11,990ft?) When I tried to start the car again it struggled for about 5 minutes. I finally had to coast down a ways and then try and start it again. Ahh real mountains.... not these hills over here in Tennessee. The highest road I've been on here was the Cherohala Skyway with a max altitude of 5400 ft (from a base altitude around 900 ft)

                  Anyway, 'nuff of my blabbing about wishing I were still in Colorado. Someone buy this car! Looks like a great deal for someone local!

                  Oh and for a ride height comparison. This is mine with basic KYB replacement shocks and stock springs. Very similar ride height to this car.

                      BlueBMW: Thanks for your input!! where I used to live in MD the highest mountain was just over 1000 feet. I was quite in awe when I first came out here.

                      jrobie: this car may be available in a couple weeks, I keep getting calls about it with people telling me they want the car, but no one is showing up with greenbacks....

                            i actually went to Autozone and got some Bulldog system, it was $45, i attached 5 wires, and bam! keyless entry! I actually think every E30 owner should do this. Its totally awesome. Here is a good writeup, the one on R3v sucks, because the picture links are broken: http://www.m42club.com/forums/showth...=keyless+entry

                                Blue, get your butt back here! I moved back to my hometown of Littleton from Hawaii last year and I'm not looking back!

                                Regarding Sam's ride, I drove it tonight and I should tell you all that it's a great big pile of junk, but that's just because I want it to still be around and for sale when I get back next week. I should tell you that, but in honesty, it's a great car.
