I have given this a lot of thought over the past month or so, and i think it may be time to part with the one thing i never thought i would get rid of. I am only posting this here on R3V right now, nowhere else. This car has been my pride for over 2.5 years now. I have replaced just about everything i could on it. We will start with a "Mod list"

A couple things- The 4.10 will not be coming with the car. The stock Taurus red leather sport seats (no rips/tears) will be coming with the car as well as the Corbeaus. The car has a brand new sachs sport clutch with less than 1k on it. The Exhaust combination is loud, but not deafening. Honestly, i wouldnt change a thing about it. it literally sounds amazing.
The bad: the car has one spot of rust. it's getting fairly bad. It is on the DS rear fender arch, before the wheel, down at the rocker. I do not have any pictures of it at this time. Also, the ECU is not working properly and needs to be replaced. I am in the process of getting one right now and whoever buys this can be rest assured of that. The car will not run at this time because of the ECU. One BFG G-force sport is down to the threads, it will be replaced. The foglights are cracked. I have new ones, just been too lazy to put them in.
The car right now sits at my mechanic, and friends house about 15 minutes from here. Next time i go over there, i will take a picture of the rust spot.
I really am probably going to regret getting rid of this car more than i have ever regretted anything in my life, but i feel its time to move onto bigger and better things. I am currently working A LOT, and going to school full time in between, so considering this is practically a race car, it shouldn't be my daily.

PRICE: $10,000.00
Any Questions Feel Free to ask. If you aren't interested, don't clutter up my thread with crap. Its a serious thread, so don't waste my time. As of right now this is just a FEELER as previously mentioned, just gaging [serious] interest.
*Edit- for reasons unknown to me, this car pulls harder than any other M20 car i have driven. (Thats saying a lot, trust me). my brother, Eurostyle30, can vouch for me. as well as Komissar. I have heard that early euro e30s had lighter doors than U.S. cars. No beams. it also has a completely gutted trunk. It never had sound deadening tar to begin with. After putting the 4.10 in, i gave my brother a ride. and after a quick burst to 100, he told me "Dude, this doesnt even sound like a M20 anymore." and another friend once told me "This car sounds like a F***ing freight train."
