Wait, so you got rid of your s2000 because it was impractical and uncomfortable yet you are buying a stripped, trunkless coilovered 23 year old BMW? haha, that will be interesting. You could have run into big issues if the title transfer hits any snags as you can never know what really happened to the title regardless of what the guy says. If you plan on throwing in a semi-decent interior and want to get the body at least respectful, you are looking at spending more than the asking price assuming you get it for $400.

I will say that I have driven a 1988 325 and that was an extremely fun car as it is such a simple car with less to seperate you from all the steering, chassis, and engine. It looks to be more of a track rat though and not really what I would say could qualify as a DD beater.

 

I found an interior for 150.
trunk for 30 bucks etc.

The title thing is whats stopping me at the moment.
Theres something better i found that im keeping a secret.

 

Christ.

 

i had a 1987 325i soft top for about a week. I was using it because my jetta i had at the time shit the bed, all i can say is not a bad little car. My father still has that car with only 168k on it, but the car needs a new roof .

 

The suspense is killing me

 

Seems to be a practical DD

 

Saablink.net ≠ BMW Forum

 

Go Mike Go

 

That thing looks like it was driven like it was stolen.

 

Is there a reason why you are dumping more funds into another car? Especially since the mentioned car would be completely crap for a daily beater. If you want a daily beater get a c900...at least then it makes sense that you are posting on a SAAB forum...

 

Plus, by the looks of that BMW you'll spend less money fixing a c900.

 

So, wait.

You're going to buy someones gutted, dropped, straight-piped, beaten, no title track rat 23 year old BMW to use as a daily driver because it's somehow going to be more practical or reliable than your high-mileage M3? And you plan to buy it for under 1/3 of their asking price?

 

Its actually "butted" according to the CL ad..... i can't believe that guy wants anything more than scrap value for that piece of shit. I'm sorry but damn, buy a nice factory one Luca, they made some really nice ones.

 

your gonna pick up some ladies in that ::lendostar::

 

hahahah, i think I'm gona have to start posting some bmw stuff now. If luca can do it so can i*

 

It has sweet MODS, yo!

It makes perfect sense!

I bet it will have some sweet used tires on it soon!

 

Looks very reliable. Get it!

 

Have you considered getting a high millage E36 M3 and using that as a daily?

On a serious note don't buy a fucking car without a title unless you live in a state where that is not an issue. Make the asshole, and I'm assuming he's an asshole because of what he has done to that car, seller go to the DMV and get a replacement title.

P.S. Don't buy that car.

 

Use Extreme Caution- Sharp learning curve ahead.

 

Nice, I want an E30 to doosh around in. Do a replica M3 front bumper!

 

 

I'm keeping that one.

Bet that car is broken down more than it's moving.

 

I was just kiddingg.
I bought a 1985 325e with 325is seats.

Running for 200 dollars. =]

 

Does your sister like it?

 

I dont know i havent gone home.
It has a full interior, radio works, a/c works, windows roll down, sunroof works.

It needs a steering rack, and shocks. thats about it.
I bought a battery for it too, because the old battery sat for 2yrs.

 

Have you picked it up yet?

 

Yes its at my house now.

 

Hell, I don't care what kind of car it is if it works and was only $200. Worst case you just wail on it and have a ton of fun. I am just not sure how a $200 DD would work though...

Pics?

 

After driving the e30 all day then getting in my m3. i appreciate the m3 more ALOT more.
The e30 is fun as hell, my parents hate it, and are asking me to flip it.

But we will see shit it cost me 200 bucks id make way more than that.

Nothing useful to post but I'm going to post a reply anyway.

 

^ straight...up...hustler...*

 

He'll prolly flip it.

 

$200 for any running, inspectable vehicle is a freaking steal! Scrap value for most cars is more than that!

 

dont encourage him pleeeeeassseeeeee

 

Pics or it didnt happen
