        I got a couple years before I gotta paint it.

        The longer I own this car, the more rare the color gets, because everyone repaints them:p

        You have to admit you don't see too many with paint in good shape.

              you have a good point they are dropping like flies. I actually really like bronzit, I would choose bronzit over my color any day.

                        Nice find! Is there a lot of rust? Looks like a good foundation to start with. Could make someone a very nice bronzit.

                          i didnt see any rust or anything like that, but it is missing the interior and the front end. might be an issue. it wasnt as bad as the euro 320i that someone completely cut the entire front end off of and left the motor entirely intact. it had a brand new looking rear bumper which i might go get and put on the market

                            Interior (seats, carpet, and panels) can be done in 30 minutes. Dash takes a bit more time if it is out, but look at it from a positive viewpoint-- the interior being out gives you an opportunity to upgrade. You could get some nice Recaros or Corbeaus. You can get a new dash for it if that is gone, which would be better than the old cracked and faded piece.

                            Front end just takes welding. You could cut that off another car in the yard.

                              Dont even worry about it, as long as its bronzit its worth saving.

                              back when I was a noob my first E30 was bronzit, I had it repainted delphin, worst mistake of my life. back then I had no idea what I was destroying.

                                im not a fan of bronzit. mine is delphin too. ULTRA RARE ! but mine is getting a new color as soon as i figure out what im doing with whatever motor i decide to go with.
