Damn that sucks man.... do you know if he a single father before all this madness?

[Ryan...]

Thanks blunt, im sure ill be searching for parts/advice soon enough! The PO didnt die in the car, and he had 4 small children, all younger than 8 :(

don't beat yourself up over it. suicide is a horrible, horrible thing, and I've lost two friends to it, but you didnt buy the car knowing what happened. dont let it feel like you're profiting from somebody else's misery.

[Ryan...]

Yeah thats what my GF just said too, but i cant really help it. I almost feel like i stole it from the guy.. And im sorry to hear about your friends :(

[Heysüß]

i was so slow in reading everything too, i wanted to get every detail in.

and then i clicked on the pictures and all i saw was e36 vomit.

swaaaaap eeeet

honestly you probably did him a favor by taking it away. nobody wants to look at their dead son's car, you know?

This.

Also remember someone was going to take it and you paid for it.

It is yours enjoy it or sell it if you can't get past the circumstances.

Yeah the dad is a great guy. He wants me to send the certificate and plates back. He's gonna make a little monument and the plates have been his son's for many years i guess.

I have no problem driving the car, the events surroundimg it are just very unfortunate.. And to the others here: ya i like e30's, ive owned 3 and still have one. I, however, realize there ARE other cars out there...

[accident]

i've been through two e30s myself. i still love them, but god damn is my e36 a nice car.

[Ryan...]

I also love my little rusty 318is, but even in deplorable condition this M3 is a blast. Plus i got 31 mpg on the 6hr highway ride home :)

[Dirty e30]

I lost a good friend to suicide earlier this year. He left behind a sweet 2002.
Caring for the car/ enjoying it would be the best way to honor him, so don't worry about it!

Well, after talking to a friend's dad (lifelong mechanic), I'm feeling pretty confident that the slave cylinder is the cause of my tranny woes. The ebay SSK probably isn't helping, but I'll know fo sho as soon as I can bleed the slave cylinder..
