    E30's are like women..or relationships.. Some are breath taking and high maintenance, fortunately you can dream and watch an enthusiast care lovingly and willingly for them. Some are tragic and have a lot of baggage so you have to let those go. But when you get one you can compromise with, put a little love and wrenching... Anyways just don't sell it to a kid who's going to probably crash it. There's enough enthusiasts here that will give her a good home..

      No idea, there's a thread I previously had and NO ONE knew what the seat was from. The previous owner said it was from an e36 but the recessed headrests don't match.

              You can keep a car forever, or at least until you die.

              The money he will spend getting this car fixed vs selling this car and putting towards another, most likely shittier, car is most likely a big difference.

              A few drive shaft bolts is nothing.

              And if he has to see how much he can get for it, then it seems like he wants to keep it.

              With that said. I would pay no more than $1500.
              +1 keep the car and fix it. You won't get a better car for the money. Plus it's a super eta! Not many people can say they own one.

Should I replace the whole axle or just the cv joint? Axle = $365.00 where joint and boot kit =$56.00?
                      Fuck my life
                      I have an axle totally rebuilt 185.00 all OEM good for 250k miles
                      LMK I'm doing you a big favor just to help you out.
