It kills me to have to do this but…

This is Dawn’s/Jam’s/coldaccord’s/100othernyspeeder’s whore e30. It has brought me oodles of joy and is a blast to drive.

It needs some love. I have sourced many hots and goodies to make it better but a divorce, school and starting a new career has made this car pretty hard to keep. I’m going to keep the previous few sales threads format and because I haven’t put many miles on it a lot has stayed the same haha. updated miles though 😉

Teh car  
-230k on the chassis, this is just a guess. cluster says 135k.  
-around 60k on the rebuild, 88 s-eta bottom end, i head.  
-5-speed  
-3.73 lsd  
-Ireland engineering exhaust (no cat/no res)  
-z3 short shift  
-sony mp3 cd player  
-50% tint up front 20% in back  
-Black vinyl e30 325ix rear seat w/ armrest and ski pass  
-15mm h&r hubcentric spacers  
-new bosch alternator replaced late summer of 2012  
-I have the black vinyl e21 Recaro sport front seats but they need some work. Sporting some tan sport seats now.  
-Tokico struts with H&R springs with less than 10k miles

The bad-

-She isn’t pretty  
-fuel gauge doesn’t work (warning light will come on)  
-Hood is chalk board painted

currently running on m20 afm and 19# injectors

I have momo arrows with random tires currently on the car, MSR wheels with falken azenis, good snows on bottle caps, most of a turbo setup with a holset WHC1 turblo, some random m50 swap parts, new control arms, new tie rods, new spare control arm bushing kit, new timing belt/water pump/tension pulley, various interior pieces, spare fenders, spare hood, new gas tank, front valance to replace current nasty valance, tan interior and currently a full tank of gas.

I pains me to have to do this so I’m pricing it easy.

$2000 without all the extra goods on momos with winter bottlecaps

$3000 with all the hots and bacon

I guess I wouldn’t be opposed to trades for something that isn’t a track rat/project car that will consume all of my time and love haha

Here is the dirty bitch.

Yeah, I didn’t want to take too much from the previous thread because it was 4 or 5 years ago. Again, not much has changed since.
