      im gonna go middle of the road on this one.

      when I got my first E30 I didnt know how easily the frame rails were to bend in a seemingly minor fender bender, and as such got one with a boogered frame rail. yours looks to be of the type that missed the bumper, and if so, you are truly lucky. the core support can be replaced, but if the frame rails are bent/damaged, its a parts car.

      the other body issues are relatively minor, however can add up in cost when it comes time to repair the damages.

      Overall, I think you overpaid for a 318 in a parts car status (as it sits right now, thats what it is) in AZ this would be a 4-500 car TOPS. your market may vary.

        They started straight but eventually wound up way way off.

              Nice roof rack and stereo

              Now find a straight car with a blown engine and swap that stuff into/onto it
              Drive it hard. Maintain it well.

                  Something doesn't sit right with me about a 16 year old macguyvering this car back together to flip. I hope there isn't frame damage, and not sure how it's still a clean title. Something tells me an insurance agent hasn't seen it-that scares me.

                    Liability insurance... No need to tell. ;)

                    If it scares you, don't buy it.

                              Been a couple days since I bought it, just a few updates.
                              Oil change, spark plugs, wheels, lowered it all around, all red tailights, is spoiler.
                              Getting it pulled on Friday next week and it'll be done.
                              Wheels are XXR 002's with 0 offset all around. 204/45/16 falken tires. Planning on completely polishing them.
                              Now a few pics I took tonight with my iPhone:

                                Wow, i'm surprised and impressed. Can't wait to see it with the front end fixed. Don't forget your wheel alignment.
