    i'd say he'd be in the ballpark to start at $20k. just take a look over at s14.net.

      200k miles and 1988 $20k is perfect

        So nice it would only be a garage queen for me. I'd be afraid to drive it anywhere that I would have to park. GLWS!

                ^ thanks.

                just as fiy, for all the r3v lowballers, Sadly i will not be looking to sell the car for 15k cash. I would rather keep it for my kids to drive when they grow up instead. ;)

                    sorry. thought i added response to that already.

                    The original owner that i purchased it from said he had the head reworked. I haven't personally done the bearings etc but i haven't had any issues with it. I've put maybe 500mi on it in the past year.

                    The last service i did on it last year before parking it included :
                    - Water pump
                    - All coolant hoses
                    - Expansion tank
                    - Fuel lines
                    - Fuel Filter
                    - Knn air filter
                    - shifter bushings
                    - Control arms / bushings

                    I replaced bunch of other stuff as well, just cant remember off top of my head at the moment. I need to dig threw some files and find all the receipts for the recent stuff. I'm just scared to add it all up and see how much i really have into the car... :/

                    The car runs / drives solid, it starts up and drives every time. It really is a tight / firm driving car. Never had an issue with it. I think it could use a valve adjustment in the near future, but i might do that before the car sells. I want this car to go to a serious enthusiast that will care for it. I like to be 100% transparent with buyers...

                      I know how you feel.

                      I have an E39 M5 and I did add all of the mods I have done to the car so far and I'm easily at 60k right now. Sadly, If I was to sell my beast I'd be lucky to get $25k for it.

                      Same with my ZHP, tons of mods but couldn't sell it for more than 17k. That's why I'm keeping both of my cars. Someday I will own a perfect E30 M3 such as yours and I would be more than happy to pay asking price if I had the cash right now.
