    about a year ago, i posted this car (page 171 post 2561)


    today i saw it at the junk yard. seems it met a violent and untimely demise. i had the chance to look under it and i have to say its a total rust bucket.





    here is a screen shot of what i posted back then.

          debating getting this as a project anyone have any input? I don't know a lot about e30's but i'd really like to get one as a project so any words of advice help.

          Ditch the queermo light bar, chinesium wheels, cheap coils, the goofy looking exhaust and...wait. Got smashed in the front end while parked? Pass on it bud. Don't pick up someone else's problem child.

            This seems sketchy as hell, but wouldn't this be a pretty insane deal if it isn't completely trashed?

              Sometimes people are hard pressed. I'd check it out. Bring 2 people. And maybe a gun though.

                Ever heard, "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is." This sounds like the epitome of that situation. Definitely a scam.

                I see something like that with just one picture... I report it and move on. If he had multiple pics and shots with his license plate, I'd at least call to feel out the situation. But that would a 5 second view the way it was posted culminating in a flag/report action.

                            It does look like a clean car, but I think he's smoking some crack asking $17K

                                Maybe he is a neat freak. I sometimes swab my car to get the dust out of the vent grilles.

                                OR maybe he's gone all CSI and is swabbing for DNA...
