Selling my car. Anyone on here want it?
It's time. I've been bitten by a bug that goes by the name of Motorcycle. It's a real bitch to transport a motorcycle in an e30.

I went the other way, came from motorcycle to e30. Matt (ten2doyle) lives in Appleton and is hunting for an e30, might want to pm him.

You can list that as a $4k car with how good the body looks from the pic, and given your location, you'll probably get it.

Re: Selling my car. Anyone on here want it?
I still hate you for doing this. IDK if you got my message, but I am interested in the seats, IIRC the leather was still pretty decent right?

Re: Selling my car. Anyone on here want it?
Not fast at all. I'm planning on buying a little pickup. Thinking about a 1st or 2nd gen Ford Ranger. haha. I had a 95 ranger and loved it, but it was gutless, so I got the e30. I could have the e30 and the truck, but I don't have space for both.ten2doyle102 wrote:How fast are you looking to get rid of this

Yeah, there's some rust, thus the $3000. If I put it up on craigslist, I'll put $3500, but that's just because nobody pays full price on craigslist.M20_fever wrote:IIRC it has some rust issues doesn't it?
The leather on the driver seat was f*ed on the bolsters (same place yours is torn IIRC). Passenger seat was ok, but I took all the upholstery off and never got new stuff.Nsquared97 wrote:I still hate you for doing this.

It's like a 2.73 (2.79? 2.72?) I can't remember which number is right.Yoshi wrote:I hate you.

Yesterday I went on a golf outing with the guys I work with (we hit a sales record, so we had to celebrate). Anyway, everyone was routy, and one of the guys I work with drives a 91 z28 camaro (which is in MINT condition). Needless to say when we got on the highway, we both opened em up. Hit 100mph a couple of times. It was a blast. haha. Fact is though, that's the first time, pretty much all summer, that I had that kind of fun in it, and it was illegal as shit. I don't make enough money to make it into a serious race car (the way I would want to at least). A lot of you on here will probably disagree with me, but motorcycles give you 10x the sensory overload, are way cheaper (in terms of power/speed to cost ratio), and are way easier to work on. I bought an enduro from 1978 and it spanks most cars on the road. Cost me $900 and gets 50mpg.
My e30 needs to go to someone who will love her like I have for the past 5 years.

Re: Selling my car. Anyone on here want it?
nah man I get it. I kinda got away from bikes for all the reasons you listed except the MPG and ease to work on. I scared myself several times on fast bikes, and riding motocross. Seems odd, but the racing I do now is WAY safer than when I was on a bike, even on the street.

I'm actually looking for another 2-door, and I will be in MI in 3 days... Not near GR though, I'll be in Monroe.
