Officially entering forum with a 89 325i manual ..... After several E12s, I turn my attention to the little one that defined the company.. . It was listed here as a "NA CL E30 in VA.." so I jumped on it, rented a Nissan frontier ($18/day) and a Uhaul whatever you call it and picked it up $450 exchanged...
The paint is shit, PO painted it few times with house paint, vacuum leaks, sensors etc... but runs ok, few oil leaks no biggie.. Interior was Ok with a broken tach/ODO (126K, but close to 170K actual).. there is a battery draw while it sits, so finally the multi-meter will get fresh batteries. .. drivers door handle missing no sweat, rear driver window held up by pen (rock-auto).. but SUPER rust free and straight, carfax: clean accident history, CA>UT>VA> and now MI.... that was a fun trip sleeping on the back seat in a parking lot of a turnpike plaza..The car was heavier than I thought...
I feel like I rescued this one from the clutches of a retired but still cheesy very honest and nice man who "tried" to make it nice and gave up... .so consider this the "before" pic...
