Looking to buy my first e30, Need some Help

[Mad Chemist]

Looking at car this week that isn't too far from me. Need your opinion on the price. I definitely am to the concept of the e30 but have always loved the design. I know you probably can't tell too much from the ad but any information/opinions would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Thats a lot nicer then my first e30.

So what do you think about the price? definitely not my first car, or second.

It looks like it was well cared for, except for the not fixing the rear bumper after the hit. I would find out his reason for sale (forgive me if it was listed in the thread, I didn't the entire thread).

Lot's of goodies, 2.7i conversion is good (assuming it's running properly) rims, new tires, new leathers big brake conversion. It looks like you could get a lot of car for a good price fix the rear bumper and drive as is, or do some tweaks to it; such as lower suspension and different sideskirts.

Worth it. Pay his price and be happy.

I think many will tell you the price is high. However, if everything is done to it that the ad claims and the car runs good and is structurally sound $7,200 isn't bad. If you do you're own work, you might be able to build that car for close to that, but if you were to get this stuff done at a shop, then forget it - the cost to build would exceed the cost to buy that car as it sits.

So if you were to offer a fair price, what would you do? I have an idea on what I would like to offer but like to have the opinions of the community. Thanks for the info.

Looks like a lot of car for the money...I'll bet it runs good too!

[PeteD]

$7,200 is fair - perhaps find out how much it would cost to fix that bumper and work from there. Otherwise, the car looks updated and upgraded. Sometimes all these extras don't add up to a greater whole, however in this case, it looks like the owner was doing things with care and attention to detail - except for those taurus side skirts.
