Jump on it?

[e30slidewayz]

Dude, if you could stack another few grand, get a mid 90's 750il auto and just cruise

[5Toes]

Its just like an eta, but a little bigger?

[Matt-B]

528e? Id pass

[5Toes]

Engine is from an E30.

Or more technically. E30 engine is from e28s

[Matt-B]

r3v = e30s

[5Toes]

lol Brian

e28 are built like a tank - I'd feel really safe getting boned in one. They aren't as easy as a young guy.I would have never wanted to be saddled .

paging Blunt?

[5Toes]

E28s arent that big though.

And they are about as similar as it gets to e30s

[george graves]

e28 are built like a tank - I'd feel really safe getting t-boned in one. They aren't as easy as e30's are to work on as far as the suspension goes. As a young guy I would have never wanted to be saddled with a large car like a 5'er.

[5Toes]

Yup I hear you loud and clear George.

Well heres the new plan for me.

Find an auto E30 or E28. Buy and drive the fucker.

[george graves]

This is going to be your first car 5toes? Right. Suck it up man. My first car was a hyundai. Your first car is suppose to be a junker, ya know?

Here's your plan. Get an auto 2-door e30. Think of it as a placeholder. You can start learning how to work on it, and when you buy a part, install it. Then, some day when you want something better or a 5-speed, you'll know everything there is to know, and you can swap the parts over.

[5Toes]

Seriously?

I would be using two legs.

[Matt-B]

i tried Driving with 1 leg today...its not that hard...takes a bit longer

[5Toes]

Yeah I have invented several ways to make it so I dont need to touch the clutch pedal. All require more though.

The most straightforward way is swap pedals around

[e30slidewayz]

You're parents are doing it wrong. You should always start out driving stick. You learn more about the car.
