Buying $1k E30

[MokinWeet]

edit your sig foo

Gotta wait for the cash to be in my hand before I even do that haha.

Mom is still bullshitting with the bank for a loan so for now, I'm still looking for a manual e30 for 1500$.

A loan for $3k? Why not just buy the vert and ask them for fixup money? Straight body is paramount.

That's the plan now, not sure which vert you mean though. I went to look at one and I couldn't talk myself into buying it and my Cousin bought one that I was looking at and thank god he did cause it is such a piece now that I've driven it.

Luckily, these cars are pretty cheap to make whole again, even if you need to start over.

I just need one that runs well enough to have a reliable daily and some fun, any leads for me?

Not sure if your meaning to troll or not..

But just fyi, I have two e30's at the moment an 84 318i and a 88 325seta, both are 5 speed manuals, both I bought for under 1k, both run and drive great (318i has issues now after fighting with a ditch :3), neither had drastic issues upon purchase. Tuneup and a rear wheel bearing was all the seta needed, the 318i had no issues.

So yes, getting a running manual e30 <$1500 is possible, shit both of my cars I got for under $1500 together! 318i was $800 and the seta was $500.

Stop trying to kill this kids hope!

I bought my rust free 1 owner (my old neighbor) 155,xxx mile 5 speed fully loaded 325e coupe for 500, put another 500 into getting it running. I've had it for well over 1 year and I have never had any problems with it. I absolutely love it. You can definitely get a nice cheap e30. Good luck with your search. Took me a while to find mine.
