That E9 is pretty sweet. I'd consider myself a (gulp) "purist" and would have preferred it to have the original engine, but man that thing is awesome looking. By far my favorite BMW chassis, but that price tag is wild'86 325e Zinnoberrot /// '02 325ci Schwarz II /// '18 M4 Azurite Black Metallic ///

Originally posted by E30 Wagen;n=9922578This isn't just a "mint" car. It's a time capsule. How often in life have you wanted to go back in time? That's like the ultimate fantasy, right? Well, with this car you actually can, sort of. Maybe 20 years ago you could have built/restored an e30 with all new parts from BMW, but not any more, and even then it would have cost a fortune. Among numerous other parts, getting a brand new OEM interior just isn't going to happen today. You can try to find matching OE materials but it's just not the same. This car is like your one chance to go back 30 years and experience what a 100% brand new e30 is like. Not restored, new. And, it's not some garden variety version, it's a somewhat rare early model 325ix. Maybe not that exciting but it's still kinda special.

Here is an example that I found curious: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/19...-280sel-4-5-9/
Somebody wanted to restore a Mercedes and has spent more than $100,000.
It's still not ready. And it's not even the wonderful Pagoda.
Personally, I do not have the gall to dump money into a full-out restoration like the guy you linked. A full restoration is an all or nothing venture and in his case he ended up with nothing... and a $100k+ hole in his wallet.
Side note: I just googled "Mercedes Pagoda" (you can tell I'm relatively new to vintage German cars), and I feel head-over-heels in love with the design - so much so I had the urge to dump my E30 and for one... and then I saw the price tags on the damn things. Shame they cost an arm and a leg though - but that looks and rarity of those cars commend it.1986 325e Schwarz (sold)

I think that its design looks unfinished, though.

Remember when flagging on Craigslist actually did something? I used to flag the obnoxious dealership spam in the by owner section and it would actually get deleted. I haven't seen a flag result in something being removed in years.

Flagging was impotent long before they implemented the fee.

I selling my 1988 Toyota MR2, I Purchased the car ten years ago,this car is from Arizona. The body is in really good shape original paint,the reason I selling is because the engine is knocking and I don't have the money and the time to fix it is a great project car.
If this had been for sale when I was E30 shopping, I probably never would have bought an E30. AW11 MR2s were on my short list, I would really love to rebuild that little engine and shoot for 10lb/hp or better, or swap it.
