      Tough crowd. Why all the hate? He seems to appreciate and enjoy his E30 -- shouldn't that be enough?

        I'm just annoyed with the overuse of "restoration" this days.

          Not really, I just don't like him. I don't like how he talks about his "restoration" in a way that makes it sound like he did any of the work.

            I can't figure out why he doesn't have a "respect your elders" sticker and CCA badge across from the ///m on his grill yet. I heard that is an unstoppable combination at the vintage concourse events.

              because everything he has done are prefect examples of previous owner mistakes most of us try and correct after buying one.

              shitty paint job
              fucked up engine bay
              missing parts
              gay wing
              poorly running engine


              video sucks. 16 yo kid also sucks. sucks to suck

                  He has never seen a build thread. I do not have the time/space/money to "restore" anything. All I can do is what I can in the driveway but I don't even have a hoist. What's funny to me is both my cars could "use" a paint job but even with a friend giving me a hell of a discount I really can't justify it when I could put the money into actual parts.

                      All joking aside for a minute.

                      I do respect him for buying an E30 (or convincing his parents to buy him an E30) that had accident damage, rust, and un-buttery paint, and putting time and money (or someone else's time and his parents money) into fixing it.

                      A lot of people part E30's for far less.

                      I can't count how many cars I've parted because the God damned paint wasn't buttery enough.

                        really?

                        the kid takes what looks to be a pretty beat to crap 325ix and turns it into a respectable daily driver and you guys are hating on him.. because?

                        I guess you guys don't like it since he doesn't have a stupid fucking rusted hood, isn't "drifting" it, it doesn't have shit hanging off the tow hook/roof rack, sideways stickers slapped all over it and washed out looking hipster pics posted on facebook? oh and don't forget the Chinese/ebay wheels sticking 2" out of the fenders with the smallest tires money can buy. :|
