ok to clear 2 things up.

1. It is rare to see these compared to other e30's at least in my experience.

2. That means if you buy the car and part it out you still have a clean title for another car that may not be so lucky to have a clean title...

no this is not some gem but could be worth it to someone who wants a good m10 and these don't pop up everyday where I live. maybe in Loveland they do... I don't know just going from my experience of the 12 e30's I've had only two have been early 318s and i bought them two together yesterday...

A felony is such a great selling point.

A felony is such a great selling point.

ever seen people selling cars on craigslist with out a title because it got lost down the line?
being able to sell someone a "title" to "a" car is a good thing to keep in mind if you part them out!

just dont let the insurance company find out if there is an accident and the VIN's dont match.

and OP, post some god damn pics!

[ill4noreason]

pics will be up tomorrow. I am in no way condoning breaking the law. but a lot of parts cars come with no title. All im saying is this one has good motor trans and title... but potentially you could decide to break the law but YOU would be committing a crime not me...
