There's a direct relationship between how ridiculous a thread is and how much shit talking we'll allow in it.

Happy to post photos, not a problem, my fault for not reading the rules before posting. Will get on that now. I'm not here to cause any problems or stir up anything, just listing a car for sale in an enthusiasts forum.
To those calling out the "lust for 20 years and flip" - I own several cars, I buy and sell cars for a living. Just because I have admired a car (e30's in general) for a long time doesn't mean I am attached to it, nor am I necessarily in hurry to get rid of it. I am just throwing up a for sale post and letting it sit to see if anyone is currently interested. I love the car, it is a great driver, and if I could keep every car I buy that I love I'd have one heck of a collection, but I am in the business of buying and selling cars.
I am the second owner of the vehicle, so yes not a one owner car anymore, I will adjust how I describe the ownership history to be more accurate in that description. Fair point.
The tail lights are tinted and easily removed, I prefer the look so while I have the car I did it for the hell of it. The Stereo was put in by the previous owner at some point, I imagine so they could listen to CD's back when that was in vogue. Bumpers were painted by the previous owner as well (the husband) at some point. Kidneys were dipped black by me, again, because I prefer the look of it while I have the car. Everything done to the car that is outside OEM look is easily reverted back to stock, except the headunit.
I understand the high level of skepticism, much expected and not unwarranted for a car like this, I get it. Fire away, gentlemen. Good detective work so far, I was curious how quickly someone would find my IG ect. Its my username on here, BTW. If you go on there you'll see I'm not some scummy dealership owner or 5 car a week auction buyer/flipper. I am an enthusiast, collector, and broker. Not an avid E30 diehard as Im sure many of you are, but I have owned a few BMW's over the years and love the brand.
I am happy to address the car point by point for any parties seriously interested, but would kindly ask that the pitchforks and torches be put away in the meantime. I don't believe the amount I'm asking is over the top, although I realize it is up there. If the market doesn't see that value in it then it will show when the car goes to auction.
I am a pretty easy going person, not here to be a wheeler dealer, this is just what I do- I buy and sell cars, sometimes I keep them longer than others. I honestly would love to hold on to this one for a few years but I simply can't.
So now that the expect round of grilling is done, again, Im happy to discuss any and all info with interested parties.

Plus, really reading the ad, the car sounds a bit rough for being parked in the same garage every single day for 30 years. Rust on the sunroof? Receipts for every oil change, but nothing on the reupholstered seats?
Blah.
The sunroof rust is not obvious, the paint is bubbling a little bit and if you look from the underside while the roof is in vent position you can see where the oxidation is happening from the underside. It is extremely minor, but I felt definitely worth mentioning.
Ill be sure to post pics of that specific area so you can see what I'm referring to.Last edited by iHunt4Cars; 02-22-2018, 02:46 PM.

No need to whack the ban hammer buddy. I am a human being over here, I know that gets lost in translation on forums a lot, but we all make mistakes, sometimes even honest ones.
