Actually, the exteriors are OK, I just get all bugged out and OCD about stuff on the interior -- especially if you are going to take a photo of it! Especially if you are going to try to sell the thing!! Here's a snap shot I did of the one I'm trying to sell right now:

I'd be embarrassed by showing some of those photos! :smilelol:

I was going to say, what appears to be a crack in the windshield on the passenger side. from the middle of the wiper, toward the a-pillar and up.

I hope it's some kinda reflection. instead of the above.

Used to have a friend that was into BMWs. Helped him about twice a week as he was putting a S52 and trans into a E30. Super pain in the rear.

Overall the little E30 was super cool. I'd love to have just a regular 325iS (I think that was the fun little 2 door?) just to drive around. Before he ripped the interior out, I sat in it and thought it would be the PERFECT little date car. Heck perfect little car just to drive back and forth to work.

Not a huge LWB fan - but if someone had a B5-B6 Audi Avant Wagon Quattro stick shift - I'd trade as I could use a wagon again. :cool:

Want.

I love the classic wagon with a stick shift.

I was following a 4.2 S4 wagon on the interstate about a year ago. When the traffic thinned out, he punched it and was gone.

Quite a grocery-getter those things are...

I got a '93 LWB S.E. from RB. Rare, nice vehicle. Bought it 1200 miles away.

Done some work on it, but would consider letting it go if the deal is right. Especially if it is another deal with RB. Respectable guy and I'd trust him on a BMW deal.

Doubt it - but I see them all over New Zealand - in fact I passed one today that was clearly modified - it was moving from 80 to 120 kph really fast. :)

That said there also a huge number of mitz's with head gasket issues here.... But lots of vehicles here have hat issue. USE ANTIFREEZE people, it's also good for the metal/gaskets. Crikey.
