                @your response to me-completely understandable. You had more than enough to deal with, I'm glad your parents were there to help; you can't put a price on life.

                At this topic at hand, I'd wait man.

                1. Never settle or rush a large purchase.
                2. After this ordeal in your life, I'd personally be on a quest to find the PERFECT (in your opinion) e30 as a replacement. Then keep it for life: for the sentimental value, the fact it saved your life, and of course it being an icon/reminder of how precious life is. It would make for one hell of a story for the kids.

                  ho-ly-fuck.

                  welcome back, glad you survived. gnarly crash.

                  I think the white 325 for 2250 could be had for less, and may be a good starting point. mind you in Canada that thing is minty, you guys have a better preserved supply of cars in general.

                    Side note: I like that you carry/carried a deck of cards in your car.
                    Other side note: You had a good Blackjack hand showing to double down on lol.

                      Actually , you would use hydraulic shears to cut the A & B pillers, hit the roof with a pike pole and fold it back. If you needed to, you would then use a saw to cut the c pillers to completely remove the roof. The "jaws of life " are actually a hydrolic spreader that opens up crushed spaces.

                          yeah I remember you, often wondered what ended up happening after the accident.

                          glad to have you back - that was a really tough lesson, I'm sure.

                            White e30's are played out by now, wait it out for what you would call the perfect e30 and then put a solid cage in it and move on from there.

                            How much for crackfree dash?

                            Glad to know the e30 saved your life, also glad to know you have overcome your fear of e30's. Welcome back, we're glad to have you.

                              sadly no. I sold old blue way back. I loved that car around town, but it sucked on the highway. i think fetched a pretty penny... *cough* $500

                              I am starting to think that way too. I need to be patient, and find the dream e30 for me.

                              well, all that happened right before college. I completed undergrad and grad school at UT and now i work for international paper at a paper mill. now i have some money and time to get over all this (mentally) im ready to get back in the game.


                              ---also, i dont know if i should post them or not... but i found all the gross pictures of my wounds.

                                I think you should post the pics. I think I need to see the human carnage to go along with the e30 carnage.
