    Agreed. That, and taking anything out of context and assuming people are talking shit, getting hostile about trivial opinions from some guys off the internet is going to turn off a few potential buyers who actually see this car as worth what you're selling it for. You're getting close to cheap E46 M3 territory for a stock motor 325is with bags, nice wheels and a few mods. That is going to take a lot of convincing to sell it to someone you know is going to take care of it and is involved in the classic BMW scene. Hell, mint low mileage bone stock E30s go for less than what your asking. But, it's YOUR car so I can't tell you how much to price it. You sell it for what YOU think it's worth.

Problem is, you or any of the nay sayers so far have no intentions to buy this car, so why you continue to lip off is beyond me? I am wanting to move on towards my dream car. This vision I had for this car has come to life and now I'm heading towards a car I have always wanted. I still love this car!

    Price is a starting point. I believe a hand shake is as good as a mans word, a promise is a promise, be honest and you'll never have to look back and if your going to say something negative either be a man say it to his face or keep it to yourself. If you want $10,000 for your car, don't say "I want $10,000 firm" that's just stupid, say I want $12,000 or offer and hope to get $10,000 or better. I know what I have in the build parts, wheels and my time, it's just a starting point.

    It's great that you're trying to move on to your dream car. Shit, if I could get a hold of an '69 911 Targa, I'd go apeshit and do everything in my power to get it.

    You have to understand, though, that the general consensus of E30 purists and modders aren't big on the airbag suspension because they don't really see it as adding any value, rather detracting from the worth of the car by compromising it's original handling characteristics and going for form > function. Some people opt for the typical HR Billy setup, because it works as a form and function application. There's nothing wrong with it. I like airbag suspension, personally. If it's installed properly and doesn't make the car a hassle to own and drive, I have no problem with it whatsoever. It turns heads, no doubt, and that's usually why people install it. To turn heads and garner looks and people huddling around at a car show.

    Keep in mind that this is based off of my observations, and mine alone. I don't speak for anyone, but this is the what I've taken from my experience on these forums and in enthusiast groups.

      I was reading that the air suspension is actually as good as quality coilovers if done right.
