Beautiful Austin.

Someone's going to get a perfect E30, how much are you asking?

Going to "Bring a Trailer". We shall see what happens. Hoping for big money, but as long as I can get it's replacement purchased with the proceeds, I'm good with it. I'm losing money either way, but just want someone to have a nice car at the end of it all. It's definitely the nicest e30 I've owned or driven.

Can't wait to see what you do next. I lost money on my last car too, but I'm okay with it because I think I've enjoyed the journey and learned a lot in the process?

Now definitely seems like a great time to sell, I can see prices dropping soon.

Are you planning to stick with black out grills?

For me, it's all about the journey of the build, hunting for rare/desirable/uncommon parts and making something better than it was when i started. For the finished product? Meh. Don't care all that bad. I end up making stuff too nice and then am afraid to drive it anywhere.

Next up is S54 MT2 cabrio (procured the engine today) and I will reveal this car's replacement once the cash is in my hand...

Yeah, the black kidneys work on this car, since all the trim is black. Chrome would just look too out of place. I will be reinstalling clear smileys, though.

I’m thinking about S54 in the X3 when the 2.5 shits the bed.

Figure it’d be a fun family hauler.

Debating doing it to the Touring as well.

LS swap for the win. Always wanted to do this but never the motivation or energy.

Ha! I kinda feel the same way. My e30 is a collection of parts I sometimes call a rolling shelf of mods. Meaning, it's always changing, and I'm never 100% happy with it. I have a goal, but between now and then, it's a bastard child of a "project car".
