I just bid $16000 that should take it.
I hope.

you didnt accidentally put zeros and no decimal right? because 1600000 would definitely take it! haha

Good luck!

S52 swap when you win?

edit: seriously though, those tires are 12 years old, you should change them immediately

I know, not safe even to drive home to San Diego.

Are you going to tuck it away if you win?

[ghrays]

No I want a driver. I think it will bring in the mid to high twenties.
I'd rather get a car with 80k miles gently used thsn one like this stored most of its life.

Will be nice to see it driven! A nice set of wheels and a slight drop to tighten up the suspension would be a good investment. Its also stock, so it has the dual mass flywheel. Shame that even after about 20k you'll probably need to drop another few grand into it to make it a perfect M42 ca. I hope you win

Didn't last 24 hours.

I'm guessing $25k

This is pretty accurate seeing as how the closest one to this had 40k miles and sold for $25.5k

This one might actually get more...

[Poorhouse]

I wouldn't bet against $30k.

I wouldn't bet against $30k.

Wouldn't be surprised, but I'm going to guess $27k. That is one beautiful e30.

I can't believe that 325ix is getting bid up to $11k right now. The panel fitment and body work looks pretty bad, and overall there's a lot of little things that look wrong... For $11k I think you're better off starting with a rough looking, but straight and mechanically sound car for ~$4-5k and investing in proper body work at good shop.

And it's rusty.

That low mile 318is is going to need a bunch of maintenance before it gets driven regularly. I'm going to go with it being bid up by collectors who are expecting them to live up to the "baby M3" moniker everyone tosses around.
