10k in Mods

[mbonanni]

Idk why but my post was based on dropping 7-10k on an e30 that was already built or 10k in mods on the one you had.

therefore, my post is irrelevant

If you still want to go your route, I'd do ALL the maintenance first then refresh the suspension. Nothing beats cruising in an E30 that feels freshly well put together even if it looks like shit cosmetically.

Holy shit, this just hit home for me.

If i was gonna do it again. loose the vert and get a 325is and S52 swap it, GC coilovers, z3 PS rack, BBS RS 16x8 and DRIVE!

I would never buy a new vehicle unless I had the entire payment in cash while working in the oil field.

I would buy as many stickers $10k can get me.. Recipe for the fastest e30 on the planet, me thinks.

Idk what your time-frame is modding wise, but I would NOT drop 10k into my e30 like that.
New car means long term payments.

pretend your monthly payments are $350. It will take you 29 months to reach 10k in monthly payments. How nice is that? New car & making payments while still earning payroll checks.

If I was going to spend the money anyways I would spend the money on the car I have because I get to choose exactly what I wnt rather thn what someone else put/wanted on their car.
And you get the joy of learning the car inside/out.

Ok the set up: My dad says now that I'm in the oilfield I should look into buying a new car, maybe one within 7-10 thousand dollar range. I say I don't want a new car but I'll gladly drop that much into my 90 325 ic. What would you guys buy if you had a bone stock e30?
