detail
the good
180k miles not much for its age
rare color/car
one of the last built e30s
great platform for a reliable daily driver with a little more tlc or a nice swap car
rides smooth no abnormal shakes or noises
good on gas
recent tune up
turns heads everywhere
did i mention has potential?
working ac
full cardinal red interior in good shape shape
drives straight down the road
3.73lsd iirc
clutch strong
shifter not sloppy
virtually crack free dash
working cluster
paint still very good. minus few chips here and there from daily driving. car has been resprayed once with oem paint
auto top
carpet in good shape
windows work
climate control works
wipers lights horn work
powerslot rotors and some sport type pads in the front
rear brakes still have life left
update: car no longer has a cel as once stated before. top has been replaced with a good one with good rear window, interior is swapped to cardinal red, mtechII steering wheel, is lip, lowered on all 4 corners with bilstein sports and bavauto springs.
top cover needs new cables(existing are slightly stretched) so cover needs a little help being held down. these (2) cables are $40 a piece from bavauto. but top will stay down. ive driven the car plenty with the top up and down. and its a blast with the top down, kind feels like your drving a little toy.
slight exhaust leak. ive actually been complemented on the cars exhaust note tbh with you. i laughed. it isnt loud or anything, it just has a slightly throatier tone to it.
car appears to have been rear ended sometime in its life before. looks like body work was done on one corner. like i said before car drives straight the alignment is all inspec (in the green and on the dot) ive put it on our alignment machine everything is in check.
has a few scratches here and there..rear bumper has a crack in it. car just overall has an ocasional imperfection here and there.
abs light is on because the current suspension setup doesnt allow for wheel speed sensors
i really love this car its really nice with the top down the ride is amazing, and looks great as it sits with the bbs rks on it.
if i were to sell it outright as it sits with all the tune up i did and the wheels id look for 4k with wheels or a little less without the wheels.
now for some pics ill try to get more later if someone is serious..


car would be great for someone who wants a nice summer car or a project swap car! i am in no rush to sell i do love this car so im not going to accept any lowball offers...
update:
dash is 99 percent crack free with a tiny crease forming by the passenger corner
few questions someone asked me...
How long have you owned the car?
2 months, car sat for 7 before i drove it everyday and made sure it was road worthy. car starts up and drives everyday with no problems whatsoever.
When was the timing belt last done?
not sure, but i took a look at it when i had the valve cover off and it appeared to be in good shape
Any leaks to speak of?
When have the rear subframe and suspension bushings been replaced?
not sure if they have been replaced. they are in good shape i know for a fact...the only suspension bushings that were replaced were control arm bushings in the front with e30m3 replacements to add more negative camber.
A/C and heat working?
ac blows ice cold (r12) and heat works great.
