    i originially posted this in the craigslist section. the alpina guy reamed me a new asshole for being a dick. oh well, i guess i was, but this little shithead really pissed me off.

    the link is now dead, but i think you can get the idea by reading my story below.





    This guy....is an absolute fucking idiot. I see this ix for sale on denver Craig's. 2door coupe manual for 1400 bucks. I'm like....cool!

    I call and the owner's mom answers the phone. She says that her son can't afford to buy a phone so he put her number in the ad. He finally calls me back about 18 hours later. He tells me that it only runs for ten seconds then quits. He says he did a manual swap on the car and that automatically shorted out the fuel pump since it crosses some enigmatic wire. I talk to this little inarticulate asshole for for about 20 minutes before he finally tells me the manual swap he did was from a 2wd car. This is pretty much the cardinal sin of ix's. He also says he gutted the interior because it's a race car. He goes on to say that its a real e30 and not one of those fake ones. In my mind, I am thinking: what the fuck are you talking about????? So....me being me, I probe a little deeper and ask, what is a " fake" e30????? He says all those e30's built before 1987 are fakes. Once again, I'm like:wtf???? I ask why are e30's before 1987 fakes? The little teenage turd gets pissed off, tells me i dont know anything about e30's, says he wishes everyone would stop calling his mom and wasting his time and hangs up on me.

    Maybe you should state in your ad that you hacked your car up by doing a rwd swap, dingleberry. It would go nicely with you shitty pics.

    This had to have been one of the dumbest people I have ever attempted to have a technical conversation with. I should have known he was mentally retarded the ad he posted. I have to look back and laugh......I needed to share this with r3v. I think everyone that reads this should call him up and ask it the car is a fake e30. I promise you will laugh at how stupid he is.

        I actually had a kid tell me my car was a "fake" e30 for the opposite reason. He said real e30s have chrome bumpers like the Euro ones. Then he start telling me how stupid it was that BMW had to put on the metal bumpers (diving boards?) for the US and then people wouldn't stop complaining how ugly they looked so they had to make the plastic bumpers them. I actually think he thought the chrome euro bumpers came on both early and late model cars in Europe. He also said something about how my car isn't a M3. I'm still confused about the M3 part. The only thing I can think of is he saw the ZHP shifter with the ///M logo on it and thought I was trying to pretend it was a M3 or something. Anyways all I know is that I'm really starting to hate my generation....

            I was at a gas station a couple years back when I had a 97 Jetta and this lady in a e46 M3 convertible was about to put diesel into her car. I told her that she's got the wrong fuel nozzle and she told me, "What do you know about cars? You've got a shitty old VW" Since diesel nozzles are a little bigger than gas nozzles at fuel pumps she couldn't get it to fit and spilled diesel all over the side of her car and on the floor. I left as the gas station attendant ran out and yelled at her for being a complete idiot.

                Struck up a conversation with a scene kid and he proceeds to tell me how my e30 sucks and is fake because it's a 325is.
                I ask why it is fake and why it sucks and he said,
                "only the 318is came with an LSD and coilovers from the factory"


                I wanted to slap him ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

                    How will he learn unless you slap him, at least verbally?

                    Didn't he know that your E30 is fake because it's not an ///M3, bro?

                      I corrected him by saying that 325is also did come with an LSD, and he said that it didn't matter because the 318is is faster stock because the m42 is the same thing as the s14.

                        It's like he skim read an article about a modded 318is that used the old cliche "poor man's M3." I mean, the M42 is like the S14 in that it shares 4 in common in several ways; the number in the name; the number of cylinders and the number of valves per cylinder.

                        It is of course, a fact that the M42 nurtures you bank account, only lightly nibbling the account balance, unlike the S14, which is a beautiful high maintenance mistress who's like a 2 in the sack.

                          When i bought my car a couple weeks back I went to look at it opened the trunk to see a BBS style 5 rim and tire as a spare not sitting in the spare holder. I asked him why isnt the rim down in the space saver area and he said "It doesn't fit down there it's too wide." So I lifted up the floor panel just to find 5 bags of sand sitting in the space saver. His response "Huh I didn't even know they were there. Haha."
                          How long did he own this car you ask? 2 years and he wanted to try to play that shit off I was like LOL.
