How far would you travel for the right e30?

[xLibelle]

I'd say, anyone voting 1000 or greater has not driven so much as 500 miles to pick up a car.
An e30, no. A REAL investment like a porsche or ferrarri, thats a different story

I drove 3 hours (200 miles) to Fresno to buy a 89 325i 5 speed 4 door for only $1.5K with a huge stack of receipts (to include a $2.5K receipt for a 2 year old paint job). It was on the Fresno Craigslist for nearly a month. Nobody there wanted a stick. If that same car would have been on the LA or SF Bay area Craigslist, it would have been gone in a day. It pays to go a bit farther outside your local area to find the right car.

G-Man
Too bad I totaled that E30 in Dec, it was a sweet E30

Man, 2 months ago I went to LA from Fresno to pick up my e30... I wanted a stick:)
You took that car before I had a chance to see it on Craigslist.

I flew up to Portland fro the SF Bay Area to get my iX. Drove it down. I think its like 700 miles or so?

I have heard about a guy that drove his E30, from somewhere in the US all the way down to Costa Rica

[optimusp517]

Gosh I was a fool I did one state to another, and ended up not buying it. Car had some work that needed to be done.

[dashboardmonkey]

as far as I would have to.......................for the right E30

[thundering02]

I've traveled approx 1000 miles for cars before.

[OOMPH!]

I voted anywhere. I travelled down to VA twice for my M3. Once to check it out and drive it and then the second time I came back with a trailor to bring her home :D

[1mz]

at the end of last semester my friend drove from VA to Pheniox AZ to pick up a legit right-hand-drive Integra Type R. He brought the motor and drivetrain down in pieces in the back of his GSR, assembled it all there in 4 days, and drove it home the following week. THAT, is dedication

[JuanPabloBongto]

well if we're going to have a pissing contest, I've owned 5 e30's, and 4 were purchased out of state, driven home by me:

1) 1989 325i purchased in Scottsdale, AZ while on vacation = 1706 miles one way
3) 1987 325is purchased in Milwaukee, WI = 334 miles one way
4) 1985 323i purchased in La Crescenta, CA = 1930 miles one way
5) 1987 325 purchased in Carpinteria, CA = 2007 miles one way
