Am i stupid for wanting to buy this?
I should be selling the e30 soon and with that money i can pay off the duc and buy this and have a few pennies left over.

I like these, and like the late models, but this is kinda $$$. I wouldn't pay more than $3K for an XJ. These are cheap in other states like in the South. AZ, TX, NM, etc.

Also, I know we've discussed T4R's, but please do consider.

Nice 3rd & 4th gens could be had for the same/less :-)

This one is expensive because it has. 2drs.
I really hate 4drs.
the last few months I've rented a Corolla and Camry and hated both so much I'm afraid to test drive a 4Runner or Tacoma..

Lol you’re more than welcome to take my 4Runner for a spin.. I promise it’s not a Camry or corolla.

Eric, if you get a 4x4 we'll have to go down to Hollister and have some fun in the dirt.

The 20 miles you live from me takes two hours to get there :(
Soon, I'd like to meet up. Or are you hitting Hollister any time soon?

[freeride53]

I’m down for a little Hollister action once it fully dries up. I spent $100 at a self serve car wash over the course of 2 months getting dried up mud/dirt clumps off the underbody

:rofl:

I just bought an XJ for 3k to replace the Subaru and get rid of my payment. It has 200k miles and is a 1999 with a 5 speed. I replaced the suspension with a 3” lift and some ZJ parts, the A/C compressor, and put some 31” allterrains on it and I’m still in it less than 6k and it’s an awesome little truck.

Also I’ve owned like 5 so if you have questions I can help you out.

[ohthejosh]

Im down for some Hollister shennanigans

[bastianshaw]

anyone sitting on some bilstein rears?

[jpod999]

I wonder how much interest there would be if I put my drivetrain up for sale?

[spyder918]

hey guys..any good e30 shop recommendations in the south bay? I found one called bavarian motorsport in milpitas that seems to have really good reviews.

Those guys don't work on E30s. Like at all. They did my corner balance / alignment but they don't do anything outside of that. They say it's cus E30 owners are too cheap lol.

I would highly highly highly recommend Motorspeed West in Santa Clara. Ken is an E30 expert. Dude friggin tuned my 323i L-jet. lol. He also has a 323i with a stroker he built. Very awesome dude with a lot of practical knowledge. Rates are higher but hours are lower. Levels out to be pretty reasonable.
