Those sideskirts look like they are installed backwards.

i remember two years ago a friend of mine had a black e30 vert with a m50 swap, coilovers, wheels, minty fresh interior, rust free, new top, ect.
needed a few small things to make it top notch, but it was loaded up with a dream of parts.

r3v said it was worth about 5k on a good day, he sold it for 4700.

that same car, same condition, and all would likely fetch 6500 in todays market. kinda crazy how it jumped in two years

All I know is this, around my area any clean titled e30 under $3000 gets sold within 1 day.

I swapped a 2005 s60 Volvo for my mine, which means that I effectively paid about $11k for a neglected but sound '89 vert, but:
1. moron DMV workers in MD wouldn't accept VA paperwork for an inherited car (the Volvo) {insert looong f'ing rant here}
2. I swapped it with my mother in law's e30 and she needs a car with airbags (sorry NJ)
3. I rescued it before it she neglected it into a parts car
4. Most importantly, I no longer have to drive a non-turbo s60 - the Buick of Europe.

You are lucky.

front or rear? pm me

[astiv43]

You are lucky.

Yeah, it sucks that folks are getting priced out of good ones, but given what I know I'd give up to keep driving one, its kind of amazing they're still as cheap as they are.

[ELVA164]

btw im thankful for all your spoiled kids for having your parents buy these for you, you have increase the price of my e30 by 10 times and for that i love you guys

Those damn kids piss me off. I worked for the money to buy/build my Spitfire. And my 2002. And my E30. What do they do? I dunno, get a B in Social Studies or something? Blegh.

[BamaE30]

Ok three for 12,000 but you get what you pay for (one was $500).

[Dj Buttchug]

I donno, i bought a rust free late model 318i for 1k about 7 months ago. As far as I can tell the price is still pretty low if you are patient

[reelizmpro]

Yeah there's still a lot of e30s but most are well thrashed, so the real taken care of examples are fetching a premium. The rest are just fishing for the highest bidder. They are probably selling for well below asking price so not all of them are selling for top dollar.
