Daily drive my low mile '93 E30?

[red325i]

Heres the skinny, for some reason I sold my pickup to a budy who needed a vehicle..(the $$ offer was good for a truck ive had 14 years)..now heres the issue....

Up to that point I had been driving my E30 only a few days a week...it came to me with 47K original miles, and in just about mint condition so i didn't drive it too often....so now with no truck should I buy a beater car...or take the $$ and use it on the car and make it my DD??

[jr325es]

i say save it, just buy a 325e as a beater or something...

[Desaevious]

E30's are meant to be driven, but at that low get a DD for under $2K and call it a worthy expense.

It's a tough call... why save something so mint unless you're in the position to be a collector. And if you're not interested in collecting it then why have something so mint.

IT's almost too nice if you ask me... I'd sell it and buy a higher mileage one that I could have fun with.

Unless you have cash to collect it AND still have money to buy a fun car.

Pics of this 47k vehicle! I say sell me the minty vert for next to nothing and buy a nice beige '93 Honda Accord for the DD. ;)

drive the thing.

even after a few years if you end up w/ 80k miles and still maintain it, it will be minty.

why would you buy it if your not going to drive it? its mint its low milage... daily drive it and have fun with it man i would kill to drive the shit out of an e30 that mint.

Thanks for all the input...i think im going to get a beater pick up-- spied a '87 Ford F-150 for $800, old school with a straight 6, easy to work on! gonna check it out tomorrow and maybe offer him $500 :up:

Sherpa...here are some pics..

[Bimmerista]

Don't daily the e30....preserve it

[markseven]

That car is great. Needs new rims, IMO :)

[sherpa]

Well if you do keep it for Sunday drives to the corner store (???) I would keep it totally stock, that's for sure. I agree with Markseven on the rims. Need to put some clean weaves on that puppy and be done.

edit: thanks for the pics -- just as clean as can be...

I've got one! OP, keep that 'vert and make it a funner weekend car.

use the money to mod the vert and take the bus
