    Checking In~ Long-Time-No-Post

    Hey guys I spent some time cleaning up the E30 this weekend. I realized that I haven't posted pics of this car in years! Here she is.



    Exterior















    Interior








    Power plant





    1990 325i
    189k miles
    5 speed manual
    Clean title

    All within the last year-
    • Bilstein shocks
    • New control arms
    • Tires
    • Head gasket
    • Water pump
    • Thermostat
    • Timing belt
    • Spark plugs
    • Drive belts
    • Coolant hoses
    • Converted to R134a
    • Fuel filter and hoses
    • Pioneer Bluetooth head unit
    • Pioneer speakers x4


    I'm curious, what you guys think she's worth? I've been seeing E30s going up in price recently but I want to get a sanity check. ;D

    Why is the rear badge in a weird spot?

          Sure e30 values are increasing, but those are for mainly iS cars.

          Your sedan is nice & I think I can see someone paying upwards of $5K for it.

                That thing is worth 5k easy. You could probably get more.

                  Hey Nick, glad to see you're still around. That car is probably worth upwards of $5k the way things are going lately.

                      Hey bud and Hell yeah I'm still around. I just don't post much anymore now that my E30 and E36 are both gone. I'm driving an E90 now!


                      Anyway- This car is rock solid. The ripped interior is a bummer and really the only "bad" thing about the car. It does have a minor oil leak but what E30 doesnt? Otherwise, all the dash and check control lights function properly. Everything works!

                      $5,500 and its yours. I'll pick you up from the airport and throw in a set of H&R sport springs. ;D

                        I think it would be a deal at $5,500.

                        If you waited for the right buyer looking specifically for a 4 door, I would not be surprised to see it go for $7-8k. The supply of original, good condition cars is just too sparse these days.
                        I like cats.

                          I see this. Glad you're happy with the E90. You end up staying in Ashland? Wasn't the e30 a one owner car when you got it?

                            Here in my area I think you would get upwards of 4500. But only if you make the door trim match the rest of the car and clean it up a little inside.

                            Its a really clean car

                              I bought that car for the motor and whooo yeah, the N54 is a beast!

                              The E30 has only had two owners, with us being the third.

                              I'm trying to move to Portland man! I'm shooting for asap, but I have to find a job first. By this summer for sure.
