Has anyone seen this?

The one killer on that car is the dash cracks & paint on certain areas. It does have potential.

These are always nice, safe, reliable cars to have around because they are solid and have four doors!

Yep, 4 doors. Got in a bit of an excited hurry while doing the ad. Put down the coke.

I think just because it has low miles doesn't mean it was well cared for. With the dash you can tell it has spent time sitting outside. I love the color though. Thanks for the info on the color guys. I am also into Mustangs and one of my favorite colors on a Mustang is the burgundy color they painted some of the Boss 429s.

I tend to like colors that aren't the typical red, white, black, and gray. The color is one of the things that attracted me to my gletscherblau car that I bought a few weeks ago.

isnt that calypsorot?
i love that color.

Yes it is calypsorot.


One of the e30's I am working on is this exact car with only 105k on it. I picked it up for $700 last year. I would be leary if the odometer is correct since the gears tend to brake easily...

[madformx5]

Holy Shit Atomic! I have bought them that cheap before but never with 105,000. Thanks for the info on the color. Is your car an auto too?

Yes it is calypsorot.

Yes it still currently is a auto for now. Yeah I got lucky on it actually. The people were asking $1200 and not the first person had looked at it when I did and they were moving 5 days later and did not want to take it with them. So I r3vballed them and they took it without any counter offer. In hindsight I should have offered $400-500 to see what that got me. I will have the 5 speed conversion once I do the s52/e46 M 6 speed swap in my other e30...

too bad about the cracked dash

[madformx5]

Yeah I don't believe this car was as much of a garage queen as the sellers would like the bidders to believe. I would wonder if this car has ever had a broken odometer like so many of the rest of our cars have. Without documentation that proved the mileage I would not give big money for it. Hell with the dash I probably wouldn't give big monet for it anyway.

I can't read that many words in a for sale ad. Just gimme the specs and some photos.

Here's the carfax report:

[madformx5]

I wonder what happened in ten year gap between 92 and 02??? A car in the Maryland suburbs of DC only had 40,000 miles put on it in ten years. I would want to talk to the person who owned it to find out if it was a second car or owned by a retired person.

[madformx5]

I agree that ad was way to long.

Hmmm, dicey history, sealed beams, automatic, cloth interior, cracked dash, airbags, peeling clear coat. Not to sound like a hard on, but I don't care if it has 7 miles on it, it isn't worth the 4-5k that they are expecting. I like the calypsorot though.

[madformx5]

The color is the one thing that attracts me to the car. I won't be bidding on it though. I already have 3 e30's.

What the hell happened to your car? Looks bad.
