Paint isn't the best and it burns some oil, but it's the beastly v8 magnum and will get you anywhere you need to go and haul anything you need hauled. Oh, did i forget to mention it's a 5-speed? :razz:

                toyota pick up prefered, no dodge stuff. Sorry...

                    your car is tasteful and clean, but i agree its a bit pricey for a non swap car.

                    What size are your wheels and tires...

                      The little " icon next to the word quote with the "+" sign on it will let you multiple quote things. Np with the toyota preferred, the dodge is my dad's truck so I would've had to buy it from him before trading it.


                      And no, people are not broke - they would just rather buy an s52 swapped car for 8 grand than your m20 car for 7500. I wish you could sell your's for 9k, it would mean my car would have a hell of a number attached to it if it ever went for sale. Anyway it's a clean car, glws.

                      edit: and I know you don't want to hear this but, you're better off pulling the m suspension off of it and selling the car for 4500 or 5k and then selling the suspension as a whole for 2000.

                        But with E36 stuff the E38 wheels can only pull off like a 205 to barely fit under the fenders. :(

                          and with the e30 stuff with new pads/rotors you have to remove the front rattle clips (or shaving them down works too apparently)

                            The reason why those wheels fit on that car is b/c it doesn't have new pads/rotors. All e30 m3 suspension parts underneath. If new pads and rotors were put on, the rattle clips would need to be removed from the fronts.

                            Car is looking good. Wish I could buy it back, but I'm in the same situation you're in. I need a truck too.

                              When I had Style 5's on my M3 I just removed the anti-rattle springs as well.

                                I may very well end up selling the 5 lug stuff separately, and putting a 4 lug back on.
