        How many of those little problems render you unable to drive? There's a bunch of little things I would fix, but I've yet to be stranded.

        I will say, with the number of aftermarket, OEM+, and just plain OEM parts out there, you can definitely find yourself spending a lot of money in a hurry.

        Plus, if you look around the community you may or may not get intensely jealous of your peers.

          ^^this I bet every person on here is jealous of at least one persons car. Jealousy will cause you to spend a shit ton of money cause you'll see the cool part have the I gotta have it thought and you often become oblivious to the price haha.

                -If you're looking for a reliable car and have no mechanical skills or monies. You sir are looking at the wrong car.
                -If the roads are completely fucked up in your area and you want a slammed car. You sir, care barking up the wrong tree.
                - If you think you can find all part parts on eBay and PepBoys. You sir, have no idea what you're getting into.

                  dude, that's an investment and increases the value of your e30 exponentially!
                  If it's got tits or tires, it's gonna cost ya!

                        Hmm lets see, an M20 took a shit on me, my cat on the M50 exhaust internally exploded right before BAR judgment, I had a faulty coolant hose, and a dirt road ate my oil pan for breakfast. But after two years id say all my other problems were easy fixes once i got home from work, and even the ones that kept me off the road were quick and easy

                            I'm sorry for your losses? On the bright side, your engine crapping out meant that much room for new engines, which you wouldn't have done otherwise!

                              You do not deserve an e30 if you question the e30, sleep with both eyes open.

                                If I never took the plunge with my first e30 despite my lack of car-confidence, I would not be where I am today in the scene
