    Looks like my girl is getting an e30 Vert

    Ive been looking at verts; now that its winter you can snag these pretty cheap in the bay area, my GF saw and was like "oh I like that car" this was yesterday and I was looking at a '91 325ic in alpine w autotragic, thrashed interior and a "wheel shimmy" (prolly CAB) origional paint and straight body for $1200

    Called the guy up got some more pics and agrees on a time tom meet to see the car, It was on Cr L for 45 when I saw it. We head out.

    Dude calls me, Car is sold:-(

    Another car we had seen was an 87 or 88 early bumper vert also in alpine w a 5speed, 189.000 miles w a new top looked realy clean. We headed ou to see this one and when I got there was surprised to find 15" fitapaldi wheels w nice rubber and the key for all 4 center caps. this car has a busted water pump and some clea coat peeling on the hood(rare for a alpine) but is straight and rust free nice stereo and a new top, clean title. Found a local shop that will do the timing belt and pump for like $275. Bought it for $1000.

    This car is a little different than my 89 325is alpine. water resivoir is on the other side. what else is different

    Now I want my girls E3o
    verts are cool

        ??? you must have the wrong girl. I picked up our 89 E30 for me to commute in and within 6 months it was her DD. I just got it back this year ( 5 years later) cause she bought an X5. I think she's going to sell it tho, she misses the E30.

        Nice Score OP, i've been dreaming about a nice M30 E30 vert of late.

            I beg to differ.
            She was swapping her diff out in the garage last weekend and I bent her over the hood.

            It's nice to sit there, drink beer, watch her work on her car, and get some skin. Explain to me how this is the Worst idea EVAR!!!

                    Worst idea ever because I generally care for my ladies and would not want them tooling around in an old potentially unreliable POS car that could leave them stranded.
                    Plus I would not want to be constantly working on it trying to make sure it does not crap out on them.
                    I'd prefer to see my chicks in a newer more chick friendly mode of transportation.

                      Interesting.
                      I prefer my woman not to require me. I MUCH prefer my woman to know how to work on her car. To know when she can, or cannot limp something home.
                      To not be calling me every damn time she needs her tire filled.

                      I haven't spent a single minute wrenching on her car since we've had it here in wisco. Last time she got stranded 200 miles away from a dead fuel pump. She bashed it while cranking over the car, and made it 3/4 of the way home. Then figured out the filter was clogged, and changed it in the advance auto parts parking lot 40 miles away.

                      Only reason I found out about it was when I was grabbing something from her trunk, and found a random heavy as fuck fuel filter in there.

                        Nice find man, I'm not into verts very much but for that price and for the lady you can't complain.

                        @TurboJake agreed++ my girlfriend is still in training but she's come along way.
                        Different strokes for different folks.

                          I would rather date a supermodel than a girl that can work on cars, because the odds of me getting one are about the same.

                            Chicks working on cars may be good for some guys but definitely not for me.
                            If a chick is swapping diffs and doing roadside repairs in parking lots then I would not want anything to do with her.
                            I prefer my women to be nice clean girlie girls.

                              Not to argue. But where did I say she wasn't a clean girly girl that loves lingerie and cute shoes?

                              Stop judging books by their cover ;)
