What's up all! Long time no see. Just thought I'd pop in and see what's goin on. Here's an update on my bmw situation: I don't have one right now. Wife and kids and jobs and all that stuff have taken time and money. I did sell my swap car to my brother though, and he's since swapped in an s52 and done some other things like paint the snow steelies and add low.
We haven't moved across the globe as we had wanted to, but hey, sh*t happens.
I'm looking for another car since I'm driving either my motorcycle when it's dry, or my volvo beast when it's not. Anyone wanna sell me an e30m3? :)
Seriously though, I'm looking for a clean shell e30, doesn't need to run as the next project is going to be a little ambitious in the driveline department. I may actually consider an e30m3 if I can find one for the right price (sub 20k). I've got a few months to find the car, so no hurry really. I'm all about a great deal, so let me know if you hear of anything! Work has slowed way down and I have some time to be a little more present here. I miss all you gearheads, sad but true.
EDIT: I also might be interested in a 2002, doesn't have to be a roundie, but I'd like it. This would be for a rally/track project. :)Last edited by monkeytaco; 01-31-2014, 10:36 AM.

No one makes this car anymore. The government won't allow them, normal people won't buy them. So it's up to us: the freaks, the weirdos, the informed. To buy them, to appreciate them, and most importantly, to drive them.

Overall, pretty reliable. Timing belt needs done at 100k, but that's the only major issue. Keep an eye out for modified cars, they're sensitive to needing to be tuned properly.

Meh, I sold mine for $10,400 almost three years ago with less miles and a non-replaced engine. Also had a bunch of nice, taseful and subtle mods including the Enkei RP05's and RCE springs.
I'd pass on that one, they aren't hard to find in better shape for pretty much the same money. 9-2x forums are your friend. Also keep in mind that body parts are basically impossible to find, so if you wreck one it will likely be totaled. Last I saw wait for a front bumper is ~2 years.Exomotive Exocet

@ lambo, I would go with a bugeye, my cousin bought one 3 years go and hasn't had any issues with it.
On another note I bought my first ix!!
Been super busy with work I haven't put all the parts it needs, well was waiting on h&r spring to get here but now they are, hope is nice this weekend so I can have it on the road by next week.
Will be doing PB swap and some little upgrades.
