Interesting - Money Pit Assassins

They're more fun to mod than an E90 as well because parts are generally cheaper, which means you can buy more and not worry about it as much.

I stopped keeping track 15k ago...granted I have a completely rebuilt e30 ;)

These cars add up fast if you go all out. I told myself I would be done once the car was on the road...I just finished a complete race head(all Schrick parts) and now going turbo. And tonight I drove 3 hours for a pair of Recaros...I better not ever get married!

I agree, it is a disease, it's sick! What's worst is that I live 5 minutes away from a company that specializes in salvaging E30s. They're literally a professional brick/mortar version of a junkyard...that sells E30 stuff for market price, not some crazy BMW stealership pricing.

My wife is going to kill me...lol

I've bought everything I can think of and am now thinking engine swap is necessary...its a sickness

no, its an addiction, its like full blown fucking aids with these e30's!
i have to limit myself on how much i can view the FS section here, its bad

So...I purchased an E30 as my DD thinking that I can get by not wanting to buy stuff for it and just drive it until it craps out. The whole idea is to save gas/money and keep my E90's mileage as low as possible.

Picked up the car last week and I'm already down $1000 dollars + the purchase price of the car. This is just the tip of it since it's basically just me trying to get it a safe drivable condition. I'm hooked and wanting to buy more stuff for it to make it look half as good as some of the cars I've seen here.

Looking at the forum, I'm just a rookie. I'm nowhere near the vets that's modding, buying, spending the cash to get that perfect E30. These cars are ninja assassins and the victim is your savings...*buyers beware*...nuff said.
