    This car was built and once owned by the owner of SOUTHWEST BIMMERS, a reputable shop in Las Vegas. Car does not burn or leak any oil or any fluids. I recently got the car repainted and had the interior upgraded. There are no cracks in the dash. This is a beautiful, stunning example of an e30 with an enormous amount of power. I do not beat on this car and requires better tires to take advantage of the power. It will literally spin through 3rd and 4th gear.

    You can contact SOUTHWEST BIMMERS if you wish to get more info directly from the shop owner.

    Very clean!

    And those numbers are impressive. I wonder what 600 hp feels like in comfort seats!

    GLWS!
