Preface:
I have come to the conclusion that I could easily drop another $20,000 into my E30 to make it look the way I think it should look and still not be completely satisfied with it. I learned a lot doing this swap and am currently talking with someone to buy their 1988 M6. So... the E30 must go.
Im going to stick around R3V anyway because so much that is discussed here can be transfered over to the 6. You guys are just way better than the following (but you already know this...):
- Roachfly - Don't even want to go there... mostly idiots, arcaic forum software, worst seach engine ever, did I mention mostly idiots?
- Bigcoupe.com - They get about 1 post every couple weeks.
- e30tech - Nice guys... but for honesty and insults you gotta pick R3V.
My buying rules: Im more than happy to take specific pictures and answer questions. I don't particularly want to drive out anywhere, but if you get enough items then we can work something out. If someone is willing to pay for something while you're still thinking about it then it goes to them.
The Parts:
My car is a 1990 325i sedan.
Stripping this car down to nothing (again) but this time is to part out everything. Here is a short list of the goods I can think of so far:
