donated, wish it could of bin more. hope you get her back to the state you expected to have her in now. not to make lite of a horrible situation that i wouldn't wish on my worst enemy but maybe we could have a yan/ han. where after completion yan could loan his m3 to those that donated so WE can be photogerphed at car shows. after all, the original han has gone lost down under. yan/han would not be permited to leave the country.

i already have a restoration shop (owned by a friend) that is willing to do the work @ $45/hr + cost of parts, as opposed to his usual hourly rate. Unfortunately the shop is NY, and I know Yan wants a local place so he can overlook the work himself...which is understandable considering the circumstances.

First off, thanks for donating!

Second, You want Yan to loan out his e30 m3 to all the people who donated? You realize people from all over the US and even other countries donated?

We're doing this, simply put, because its a good gesture. Plain and simple.... not because he needs it. Where did some of you guys grow up and under what sort of parenting where you feel the need to be rewarded for doing something nice? I'm just really curious.

If you're one of those guys, I offer you this link as a place to start changing the way you think.

I don't think he meant the whole car, just some token that represents it. I think it's a cool idea. I said before, kiddingly, r3v now owns Yan's car.

I really think he meant sending Yans car around lol. Read the Han thread :)

I know you're just joking, but some people just don't understand the point of doing a kind gesture. The thing here is, Yan didn't ask for this. All those statements remind me of this.

dude, i'm just trying to bring a little light hearted hummer to a all round bad situation. just thought that yan/han kind of flowed off the tounge. i never let anybody drive my car and it's an eta

[delatlanta1281]

Let's keep this classy guys. I know that just came from me. But the usual R3V bickering need not apply to this thread.

[GaryE30]

Agreed! People stop asking for stuff in return and I'll stop being, um, logical.

[DatUtahGuy]

Bump because I want pictures of the Zinno after it gets fixed

[Holland]

Contributed, best of luck to YAN, and hope everything works out well.

[Cybernix]

When me and 5Toes get out next detail im donating all my profit :)

[ReallyDirtyThirty]

What if we all go to Goodwill this weekend and look for money left in the pockets of the donated clothes! We'll donate all the cash to Yan and get the car fixed.

All kidding aside, myself and 02stu will be sending a donation along shortly...
