WTB: Sedan or Touring E30 in CA or surrounding states

[ianxflo]

Hi Everyone,

It's been a long time since I've posted here and I'm looking to get back into a solid E30 for my daily.
I first started out with a 1991 325i, then switched to a 1991 318i, and lastly a 1987 325e. All sedans bec I love sedans.

I am only looking for sedans bec I have 2 dogs with me that I will need to take along with my daily routines and I am just a huge fan of 4 door e30s.
Preferably clean title, but will entertain salvage
Any color but zinnerbot red
5spd or Auto transmission is fine with me, but I would prefer 5spd
Swapped Engine is fine as long as I can register and smog easily in CA
Since this will be my daily, I'd like to find something that has little to no mechanical issues and is in running condition
Can be 318i, 325e, or 325i -- doesn't matter to me
Touring would be cool, but I know with my budget it's gonna be a stretch to find one..
97-98 E36 M3 sedans also interest me, but again, my budget is very tight..

My budget is 5.5k max. I know nowadays this is on the lower end, but back in 2011 this was plenty enough to find a good e30!

I am actively looking through all mediums, but sometimes a network is your best option.

I am located in San Jose, CA, but willing to travel all around CA and surrounding states to find a good one.

Please message me with any finds,
Thanks!

You may be able to find a rusty, stanced, RHD, automatic touring for that number, but generally only after you see flying swine.
