    New here!

    Hi, my name is Mathew. I bought this E30 a couple of months ago. 87' 325. $400. The only thing that is pain that I see on it is the dash :( its cracked awfully. Not sure on what I want to do with it just yet as its my next project when I get my MX-6 done. Any suggestions are welcome :D

      Actually yes I did, well my friend did. He is on craigslist all the time and saw it. It was an hour away and there was a potential buyer that was on his way, we beat him to it :D The reason why we had to trailer it was because out of date tag :/

        Congrats on the purchase! :up:
        Does it run? Maunual or auto?

        Also what part of Okla are you in?

                    I hate when people say "too bad it's an Eta"... it's an E30 regardless, and plus there is loads of cool stuff you can do with an Eta motor. People act like I's are so fast... reality check.. they aren't!

                            Good find and a good starter car for an e30. Would like to see the interior when you get the chance. Oh and welcome to R3V! :D

                              I believe its because you stated it is a 325, and not a 325i/is. Without the 'i' or 'is' usually means its an Eta. 325e's are also eta, fyi.

                              Nothing wrong with an eta. My old eta was wicked fun. Although I do prefer the 'i/is'.

                              I predict that you will get addicted to E30. Sell MX-6 project. And dump all proceeds from MX-6 project into E30 project.

                              Carry on.
