    The body is in awesome shape. The driver side front fender had been backed into at some point but I just replaced it with one from an identical car same color and it matched perfectly. Still have the original dented fender as well. One noteworthy dent in the driver's door, but no paint damage and likely an easy fix.

    All black interior, also in great shape and kept very clean. It has an analog euro dash clock. Engine compartment is very clean also.

    It runs really good, I haven't had any issues or bad signs in the past six months.

    Whole front suspension is new. Steering rack from a '95 M3 with about 125k miles on it. 325i H&R sport springs, Koni shocks, and e90 top spring hats. Alternator bushings were replaced last year, tires were replaced about a year ago also.

    I personally have had this car about 6 months and am about to move abroad so it's time to sell.

    $4500.00 OBO

      How do you like the suspension? I'm installing the same springs and shocks on my 318is this weekend, and I'm debating e90 top hats.

      GLWS! Clean car!

        I've only driven one other e30 and that was a while ago so I don't have a good frame of reference, but the suspension feels great. Handling is super confident and I am going to miss it.

                    Except for the new fender, all VIN numbers match.

                    As for rust, there's a spot on the passenger side front fender that's rusted some (I have a clean piece cut off of the same car I got the fender from that could be used to replace this seciton). Underneath theres a little surface rust in some spots but nothing substantial that I notice. Pics below. Two shots of the body rust spot, one shot under the back, and behind the front driver side wheel. Note that everything is a bit salty thanks to road crews coping with the weather here.

                      I have a binder of 7 receipts from the previous owner including control arms, muffler, front spoiler, some hoses and gaskets. I personally don't know what other work has been done on it besides what I mentioned in the OP, and obviously the front spoiler and muffler.

                      Here's some shots of the door dent and the new fender.
