    So i wanna different car...

    So heres the sitch.
    I have a: 1989 325i coupe AW 5 spd
    I want: Something bigger!
    What im interetsed in:
    1993 525it auto for 1900 (what ive always wanted)
    1989 325ix 4 dr, auto and has been sitting in a shed for 8 yrs. Has 180000 miles, supposedly the engine was rebuilt at 150000 BUT its been sitting since then. Finding an IX down south is pretty rare though and the body is MINT with some kind of aftermarket lip/valence, 15in weaves, etc. for 2000

    So what would you guys prefer?

    My e30 is as reliable as it comes but its so low and small. I want something bigger for dd status.

      lol will do sir. I dont really care as far as cosmetics, but the ix would be damn cool to have especially down here, but i deep down want a swaggin wagon to dd. It would be nice to have a pic of the exterior that wasnt p-shopped

        If you want something bigger you shouldn't be looking at another E30... It's the same car you already have.

                Yeah four doors don't make the car any bigger really, just easier to access the rear.

                Honestly I built it just to have a place to sit and listen to Hotline Bling on repeat.

                  Check out an E28 535i, if you can find one in your area. Nice cars, and they have a little extra room.

                    i bought an ix that had been sitting in a garage for 6 years. it had some problems to be sure, probably why it was put in a shed.

                    but the engine, awd, and ac work flawlessly.
                    AWD > RWD

                      id go with the ix there kinda addicting and it would be worth it after the five speed swap and engine rebuild....thats what im doin now and its not bad at all... also you could buy this http://kansascity.craigslist.org/cto/2506948674.html(u just have to drive a ways to get itas a parts car and use it for the 5 speed swap. but the owner is asking way to much it should be atleast 1500

                        both overpriced. I was looking at an IX but the availability of parts put me off. Get the wagon(for $1400), you dont really need 4WD, and cheap parts
