      Oceanside Motorsports? They seem extremely legit have you dealt with them before?

                Noels car is a good price, its Bronzit but the paint is so faded that it looks silver :rofl: good price for a car that basically just needs paint and maybe a few other things

                  I just texted him for some pics of his car haha

                  My friend's budget is probably around 7k

                  He hasn't mentioned it to me, but that's my guess

                      I'm trying to find him a nice stock car that we can build to his liking. Really, I'm advising him to buy one with a straight body that needs work, so we can build it how he wants it.

                      He drives a C63, so I'm guessing he want's his e30 to be fast too, in a straight line haha

                        ahhh THAT guy ahah

                        Theres quite a few good ones out there, but theres a lot of crap to sort through. Also, Craigslist drives me nuts. A lot of the cars are sold or people dont respond to the messages.

                          Couldn't agree more, I messaged this guy last week, he responded they were sold Monday or Tuesday. Why are they still there???
