Keep in mind that the 2002 has been mobile tradition for probably close to 20 years. You can still get damn near anything for that car.
In fact I think it was in the year 2002 mobile tradition built a "new" 2002tii completely from mobile tradition parts. Not really cause for panic in my opinion.Comment

E30 24V 6MT SOLD :( - look for it in sunny Miami :)Comment

in that case you just have too much money then. Here in Germany, a BMW is like a Chevy and noone brings a 20 y/o cavalier to the dealer when there are 1000000000 small shops that labor charges are half the price.Originally posted by m3_eater View Post
I also don't see there being a real problem anytime soon with parts, but over the last few years, there has been more and more parts on the NLA list.-- my dreams of redoing my M3 seats with orig BMW leather are also popped--NLA!
I wonder when the e36 gets to be as old as the e30 are they just going to delete it from the inventory!!hahahah
a few weeks ago my buddy and me were talking-- back in H.S. I drove a 1964 Newport vert. and had a 1970 442-- they were just old cheap kinda cool cars at the time(1,500 dollars)-- back in 1992-------around 25y/o.
last year when I was daily driving my winter crapbox ETA it was also 25y/o--- I wonder if these cars are going to be anything like the cars I was driving when I was younger-- I would give up one of my nuts to have that 442 back-- I sold it for 800 dollars!!!!!!!!
all leads to he reason that last year I put together my Tech II turbo car-- it is going to just stay in the back corner of the garage and I hope I can give it to my daughter in 10 years and it actually be something kinda cool.Comment

so does this mean our cars will up in price over the coming years?YOUTUBE: AR Perez
