Yeah it said Hudson valley but has NJ plates. Thought it might be worth calling on.

That thing has really been growing on me since I first looked a the thread. :ohnoes

So i have a great looking Rx7 on the line, a minty M3, and I am going to have to look at the 190e.

Unfortunately; too soon.

viewing and negotiating wouldn’t be a problem if I was home but I still have a while longer. :Idiots

I’m finally back but I missed out on every car I was hoping to get. (i’m really kicking myself for missing that 190E and another Rx7 R1)

I do appreciate the help though. If anyone sees any type of interesting or fun car that requires no modification please post it up here so I could take a look at it.

I have an e30 m3 may be willing to part with for $16k. Some nice mild appearance and performance upgrades. Alpine white with black leather. I’ve owned it for ten years only driven weekends. 145000 miles total

I’ve been seeing 130-150k mile M3s between 13.5-14.5k dollars. I don’t think i’d be willing to go up to $16k.

It’ll probobly still be here. Every now and then I think I’ll sell it but I know I’d regret it. I’ve put a lot of time and love into it. If you are considering an e30 m3 be very carefully with the 10 to 15k range cars. They will require some serious work. At this point parts are becoming hard to come by as they go out of production. Mine had timing compont, seals, clutch etc done at 100k. I shudder to think what that would cost these days. Anyway if you find another one I’d be happy to lookit over for you. Cheers
