    WTB possibly: 318i or 325e

    Looking for CHEAP early m10 or b27 powered e30 for daily use. I want something local if there is anything around. Would like to find a 5 speed, but other than that not picky. I dont really need to get another car, but it is probably a good idea, and something I can fix up a bit and resell in the future. 500-700 bucks, but must run.

      A little farther than I want to go. Although I have a friend in school up there who could potential drive one back for me.

        Aight, well lemme know... just realize it's NOT perfect and I"m gonna be 100% brutally honest right now for ya...

        I have to make sure of a couple things so I DO want to get it checked out BEFORE I sell it, especially to anyone in the E30 community... The biggest being the oil pressure light, which comes on once the engine comes up to temp, but I'm 99.999% sure it's just a 20 dollar problem - the oil pressure sensor... If you're interested I'll get that taken care of ASAP & let you know for sure if that was indeed the problem, as I'm willing to bet it is since I still drive it every once in a while.

        The steering rack also acted funny for a little while but seemed to "fix itself"... it was just acting stiff in a couple spots but works fine now, I dunno.

        Other than that, it's just got a bunch of little needless things that don't work perfectly - missing shift knob, no A/C (freon was dead so I removed the compressor & the lines), nothing that affects the drivability.

        Now... If you're still reading ;) Goodies include a BAV Auto ecu chip, 325i exhaust (downpipe back installed and I have 325i headers in my basment), BMP intake & two sets of rims - one set of bottlecaps & one set of basket weaves w/ Nokian Hakkas on em... friggin KICKASS snowtire...

        Once I confirm the oil light as being the sensor & get the steering rack check we can discuss the price... I'd like to get $1000obo for everything OR $700 w/o the rims, headers & chip, but I don't think either offer will happen. We'll see.

            Well, right now its a bit unlikely. My friend in boston wont be able to get it to me for awhile, and he doesnt even have a car right now. I have thought about it like 20 percent. Do you have any pictures of it?
