    e30 n00b here

    Well, I'm making the switch from AWD to RWD(kind of, I'm using the subie as a DD). I've always like the e30(especially the M) and liked them even more after spending a yr over seas. I'm currently looking for an e30 and have found a few on craiglist but sellers don't seem like the really want to sell their cars.:x Anyways, I hope to be purchasing one within a month when the guy is ready to sell his car.

    Alittle bit about me, I grew up NH, joined the navy. I was just going to do it for a few yrs but that turned into 12 but I got out May of last yr and moved to NM but now living in Norman, OK. I've lived in PA, MS, Bahrain and VA(twice). Ask if you got any questions.

    Oh, yeah, at a subie meet in Richmond, VA a couple of yrs ago, an e30 stopped by and I was talking to the owner about his car. I don't know if he's still into e30's but maybe he's on here.

          If that is your car pictured, ditch the center caps and put the real BBS center caps for those rims on it. Would make a world of a difference.

                    Thanks, I have a 2002 WRX wagon that's stage II. I guess the members like to flame n00bs that ask stupid questions..

                        I must be confused those are just 14" weaves.

                        Is the guy rocking bottlecap center caps? I think it looks good.

                          Where in NH are you from originally?
                          I'm from Methuen, MA - on the Salem NH border.

                          And a small heads up - expect to pay twice as much as these cars are listed on KBB.
                          On KBB mine's worth $1800, I paid $4250.
