YOU GOT THAT CAR FOR 1500 MOTHERFUCKING DOLLARS?????

You suck.

nice find! $1500 is a bargain for a car in that shape.

are those tires like 185/60-14? they look tiny!

anyone ever notice than almost all E30s for sale are missing the front lip? (i or is, doesn't matter)

It usually gets ripped off or falls off, and they never bother to replace it. You've got to remember that most of these cars orginal owners weren't enthusiasts like us, so they probably just didn't give much of a shit about the little trim piece that fell off.

Did nobody notice my sarcasm?

The correct spelling is "sweEt". The word "sweAt" is the water secreted from your body, aka BO.

yes and it made me grind my teeth as incorrect spelling annoys me sometimes. :x

Great looking car George. Just make sure to get those front seats recovered (or at least get really good seat covers), the steering wheel replaced with an M-Tech 1 or M-Tech II and a lip spoiler installed. But you probably knew all that already. Enjoy!

Looks great George. Really clean. I'd love to see more interior pics. Looks like just the bolsters are bad.....

Nice find for the price! Can't wait to see what it looks like after a few months

Thansk guys! - Yea, I have an "i" lip - Ryan is borrowing it to make splitters - not that it matters - I'm in 4x4 mode anyways.

Yea, $1500...There are cheap and clean e30's out there - don't expect them to be perfect...have your tool ready to fix some odds and ends.

I think I will re-dye the seats for now - I'm 6'1" and not exactly a skinny guy - so I'm sometimes bothered by the sport seats - I think something a bit wider would be better.

I have some rims on the way (just some borbet type c's to hold me over for now) - and saving up for ground control - this summer is when things are really going tot start happening.

Thanks guys!

Talk to Rob (two posts above yours) about seat reupholstering.

Nice ride dawg. I was looking into getting that car, but the only thing is that I'm from San Francsico...a lil bit farther than where you came from, so that got factored into my price and I got lucky and fixer upper here--black on black '89 iS for $700. The 230k sounded kinda sketch, but it sure looks like you got a killer deal. Congrats on the beautiful car and borbets sound tight...
Peace,
Gus
