    No interest?

    I figured people would be all over this, fairly rare car, only getting more rare.

      I'm guessing people are afraid of the body damage, mainly the right rear. A better picture of that area might help out. If this was a sedan, I would have bought it from you already.

        Yep

        This is also my concern. Better pic would certainly help out. What happened?

          It's not a rare car at all, and I do not understand where people are pulling this thought from in the last three months. It just happens to be a last year coupe with an M42 engine. However, M42s were installed in overseas market cars several years beforehand, and total 318is production numbers are quite high.

          As to getting more uncommon, yes, but only by virtue of age, and we know cars don't get more valuable just because they get old.

            All valid points

            All good points. I'll get some close up pictures of the rear damage added. I guess I was under the wrong impression thinking M42's were kinda rare. Thanks for the input folks.

                I think less than 2% of E30's made qualifies as reasonably rare. Are they unicorn status? No. But its still a very small # of E30's.
