    What is wrong with the M3, and why is it so dangerous?

    It's pretty damn fun. But God is it a hot mess. Thing needs so much work. My roommate lost the key so I have to put a new ignition in it. The hood latch also snapped the last time I tried to open it. So I'll probably have to slap it on with hood pins. Oh well. It's basically a racecar, basicaly...

    Also it is a deathtrap.

    Have rode in it. Can confirm near death experience. There was also no passenger side seat when I went for a drive. I don't think we had traction once on the entire drive.

    ^yup, that would be it! I've been emailing back and forth with the new owner and he seems to want something a bit more stock, which is understandable.

    Pretty sure I'm gonna buy the coils back off him at the very least.

    It was unexpected, I decided I wanted to focus on my 84 coupe, and it's a total mess lol. I still haven't graduated and I really do have too many projects.

    Hank, is this your old car? If so, the new owner contacted me off my "WTB E30s" ad. Didn't last long, if that's the case.

    Sold my 318is yesterday.

    Looking forward to getting the 84 alpine shell I have running. Hoping I can trade a 24v swap for an m20b25 and all related wiring/ecu. I'll be running a pedal box amd no power steering for now, so that'll be easy to take care of.
    The 24v swap consists of an m52, 260g, revshift mounts, billet trans brace/adapters e34oil pan, pickup, dipstick, sap delete plates for the m52 exhaust manifold, 413 red label ecu, other stuff I'm sure. Comes with loads of fresh bits. Comes with an m50 intake mani and raceskids skins plate. It will still need a throttle body and some other misc stuff. Motor was last ran ~ 4 years ago before it was completely refreshed and put into this shell. New timing components as well.

    Looking for a decent running m20, if anyone is interested.

    Having gone to school with some Montana boys in Arizona - I think fenders were optional (having rusted off most of their cars!)

    Meanwhile - it's so nice to not be tripping over E-scooters again. At least, for the time being.

    OOP! No, I just assumed you big city boys (and girls) had to go thru emissions inspections like CA.

    As a former Seattlite, I understand the great sensitivity involved here!

    Anyway...here in the vast rural sticks of MT, I'm not sure it has to have lights or fenders on it to drive on the highway, much less emissions, much less inspections. That would mean the commies are infringing on mah freedums!!....or something...

    I like black sheep therefore I think the 914 is sweet.

    I guess I'll just have to deal with my overpriced turbo family sedan in the meantime.
    New math tells me that 3 bad 911s equals 1 good 911. Wait a year or so for the economy to fully crash. Then it'll be prime time to move the chess pieces.
