    Gonna buy a ix e30

    http://philadelphia.craigslist.org/cto/1595266511.html tell me what you think of the car

    Ive herd alot of people say that "You dont want to buy an ix"
    other then the parts being more expensive what would be other legit reasons why i wouldnt want to purchase this car.

    what im looking for
    i need a reliable 4dr car, manual, minimal rust, some thing i can get side ways every once and a while even if that means waiting for snow or rain.

    i looked at the car today everything looks in order very small amount of rush dash cluster still works, all windows, sun roof work, no trunk rust, starts fine from a cold start, drives nice.

    any input is good. im thinking about buying this car tuesday so if any one can help out that be awsome

    Do it, they are awesome cars. Cat on iceskates... It will make sense once you drive one in a snow storm.

    Good Luck.

              thats not a bad price either it looks pretty clean. those ix's are more then convertibles if they are in great condition!

              i like my 2 door ix , but the 4 door ix's look really cool man

                Do it dude. They may be expensive to maintain but it's worth it. It's a money pit but it's worth it. I keep telling myself that everytime the car squats during hard shifts from 1st to 2nd. So worth it.
