Im buying this e30 next weekend and I would like someone to go check it out for me. It looks pretty decent with a little rust on one fender.

if you want awd get an audi, finding replacement parts (like front axles) for an e30 xi can be a headache

if youre willing to travel, buy this [http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=178347](http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=178347)

I’m willing to travel but my budget is the major concern now. I reaaaaallllyyyy need to sell my accord. I’ll probably work something out with dawn, even though I wanted a white 4 door ix. hers is quite the opposite.

you cant be fucking serious. the car is 20 years old and not to mention i heard what she was asking for the car with steelies and no spare parts… maybe its just me but i wouldnt expect air conditioning.

her car is suprisingly very reliable she just drove it to marthas vinyard and back last month. ive driven it numerous times and honestly its what made me end up getting a bmw in the first place.

I’m saying I would have to put it back on some time, not that it excludes it at all.

I just dont know if I would want to drive it to ellicottville and back in the middle of winter…

Since I had Gary rewire the whole engine bay, and minglor and I replaced the head, new gasket, and metric blues, the car has been a lot more reliable
