Well, as most of you probably don't know, I sold my ep. I owned it for 3+ years and was kinda getting bored of it. Typical 20 year old I guess. Well here she is, last picture I took before it was sold.

Decided I wanted something RWD and cheap, So I could actually mod it. Well here she be, a classy 1987 325e E30.

Can't decide to either roll sleeper or mod it a lot. $2500, clean title, no accident, only 110,000 miles. I love how the Inline 6 runs, such a little "torquester" Anyways tell me what you guys think about it.

120 some hp and 170 some tq and rwd with 2500 ish lbs of weight isn't bad at all, they're fun cars to drive! I was thinking about picking up a cheap one and running it in the 24 hours of lemons race next year. As far as reliability goes it's not the best, but hey, as long as you're happy that's what matters!

ive been looking for a clean e30 for a yr now! im very picky tho... my bmw buddies keep telling me to sell my "shit" and get a real car lol
as for ur car... not hating but not my style
diving board bumper=grosse, unless if u convert it to the plastic bumpers
4dr, not for me, i prefer a 2dr, just like the way it looks better
looks clean and unmolested tho congrats on doing something i never had nor will have the guts to do, sell the ep for an e30 :)
i would make it a total "slammed" sleeper to get guys like me that dislike 4drs and diving board bumpers lol

Awsome!!! I own an eta e30 as well!!! They are amazing fun, and SSOOOOO much easier to work on compared to EP's. And they are reliable as well! 250k miles and counting for me.

just because I bought it that way, doesnt mean I am going to keep the bumpers. I bought the car because it was unmolested and super clean. I will be changing them out as soon as I find a suitable pair. IMO the 4 door looks better than the 2 door. The coupes look too stubby. To each his own.


So far I love the car though. Selling the EP and buying a solid e30 for $2500 was smart in my oppinion. Moneyz in da banhk.

I just got it started recently. Hopefully the new timing belt, headgasket, water pump .... etc etc etc will allow it to live for as long as i don't have enough money for a m50. Now.... just have to fix that gaping hole in the exhaust haha, she runs fine...... so far.
