Well, after months of looking and waiting and reading R3V, and then three weeks of buying process, I finally picked up my first e30 on Sunday. She's my first car purchase. My name is Cameron, and I'm a junior in high school. Now, on to the car.
Here's how she looks:
Only modification since I bought her is four new Falken ZE-512s, because the previous tires were bald (and one was on backwards...?)
Here's the saddest part of the car:
Some dumbass PO found this piece of rubber god knows where and tacked it onto the front wherever he saw fit with a random assortment of screws.
If anyone local has a front valence for a decent price--early or LM--please let me know
She runs nice and smooth, except that the engine hesitates when coming off idle. Have to figure out what that is.
Plus, other than a few cracks in the seats and the knee pad thing having been removed (it's intact in the trunk), the interior is in very nice shape.
So all in all, I believe she was a good purchase for 1200 of my hard-earned high school dollars. I'm looking forward to putting a lot of hard work (and unfortunately money) into her to get her where I want [insert prostitute joke here]. Thanks for looking. Let me know your thoughts, even if they're scathing and/or semi-retarded... I enjoy those.
*Edit:
I almost forgot, look what I found in the trunk after I got it home:
Since I didn't know it was there, and the seller didn't mention it, I consider it a bonus.
