hope this isnt a repost, but.................................
today at work I wanted to look up an M Tech II front bumper for my car and............................................... ..............



the e30 is no longer on the regular ETK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

wtf?????????? discuss?

[mikeedler]

since the first of this month, E30s are in the same class as all the BMW mobile tradition stuff--- kinda cool, but I think that means there is going to be less and less stuff avail.

i've been waiting for this day to come

[vlad]

legendary thread, this is what makes history

[Motorsports]

So what you saying is that there is going to be less parts available?

[Aptyp]

Finally, e30 has officially become a cult car.

[Aptyp]

Mobile Tradition only makes parts when there are enough orders in... This means some parts will be cheap as hell while BMW empties out their warehouses, and after that it's after market or a pretty penny for shitty fit OE parts.

[mikeedler]

don't really know if there is going to be less, but I know that e21s are on the same CD and there is alot you cant get for them anymore. The way I see it is BMW is prob. going to let the parts kinda trickle away.

That is something you really should have the answer to. Hell you should have had it before we did. You must be full of shit.

[Desaevious]

I don't understand how they do inventory but does this = cheaper parts but less of them?

[Huff]

CRAP!! That would explain why my dude at Global BMW is having some problems on a few orders from 3 weeks ago. Great.. Better stock up on those parts from Pull a Part/ Pick and Pull boys!!

go fuck yourself you dumb fuck!



I am a mechanic -- wtf do I have to do with the knowledge of what is being produced or not. for that matter, I have worked on a total of maybe 4 e30s in the last 3 years at my workplace.

If you really had anything to do with a "non-imaginary" dealership in the states you would know how much a mechanic has to do with the etk!

btw, why am I full of shit?

Self answers, if you peel away the jabbering.

this can't be good. One of the great things about the E30 was the easily available supply of new OEM parts. Guess it's time to pick up a couple parts cars..

[Miasma]

Very cool, But very not cool at the same time.
