Hard to find a nice ix for a good price that is not a rust bucket:)

ship's done sailed I'm afraid. Sedans easier to find than coupes, post 89 more than the 88 coupe. look in the southern states and don't be particular about color or transmission - lots of auto IXes were sold

Hope you get to your ix, they are great in the winter!

oh I know... they're wonderful in snow. I've had 4 of them :-) down to the keeper and the parts car, which has been mostly restored mechanically. shell is toast hence part out.

Very impressed. I loved how smooth the 2.6L M20 was. I was pleasantly surprised by how much torque it had. I'd buy it if it was an option.



I think it's my favorite non-m e30 to date.

Yes, I love the way my car sounds with the header and;the car is just a fun to drive around.
