- E34 leather ebrake handle
- original crack free dash (not too common)
- headunit with iPod hookup

things to note:
this car is 23 years old, expect the occasional hiccup. that said the car is daily driven and runs great. it doesn't burn oil but it does leak some, i generally keep a quart in the trunk to do top offs. front shocks need to be replaced, rear shocks are all good but the mounts should be replaced. brakes squeak occasionally but the pads are new... i heard that turning the rotors will solve it, but it doesn't bother me nor effect braking whatsoever. the temp gauge like to bounce, ive replaced the fan clutch but it really does a bouncing motion from hot to cold to middle, so i think somethings messed up with a sensor somewhere... i haven't investigated it as i dont believe the car is actually getting hot. the only "issue" it has is that the axle on the drivers side separated and hit the differential mount... this too hasnt effected anything, but i would look into replacing it if you want to drive it aggressively. all around its a great car... i truley love it, and will be happy to keep it if it doesnt get every penny im asking for it.

$5,000 with parts listed.

EDIT: i suppose you can make offers, i am motivated to get into bombbuilders car but lowballers will be turned away.

:cheers:

[T-Wayne]

FML i want this :shock:

[Mike V]

I'm a crappy salesman for saying this but you should really drive mine before selling this car after you've put so much time into it. While I love my M3, I miss my old 88 325is.

[TRsixxx]

This thing is sick, I seriously wish I had the money, I'd buy this car in a heartbeat...

[TehXshizzit]

This thing is sick, I seriously wish I had the money, I'd buy this car in a heartbeat...

me too. :puppy:

[99sil-teg]

I would say don't sell it man... its so sick

[Nick B]

For what it's worth, this car is worth every penny of the $5000 asking price. The BBS wheels alone are worth $1000+, Mtech steering wheels go for $250, roof racks go for $300-400, euro wiper setup is $200+, sport seats go for $500, LSD for $200, etc.. plus these cars are SO RELIABLE! They rarely ever break, and if they do, parts are cheap.

Not to mention all of the time Tyler has put into his car - he sold me some sport seats on my old e30, hooked it up with a deal, and even offered me a Natty Light.

Don't sell it to anyone who doesn't deserve it:cheers:

[Danielson]

hhmmmmmmmm........................................ .....................:thumbsup:

boy i wish i could afford that right now.

[tyleR]

lots of interest and lots of people saying keep it lol...

people should really see it in person to appreciate the condition.

also, about the weird temp gauge thing, i picked up a water pump (even though i think it must be sensor causing it) that ill throw in with the car.

[Danerer]

Lol this E30 is sick!
Glws.

[Scooby24]

Could the water temp thing be as simple as a sticky thermostat? Seems like the symptoms of one.

could be...
sometimes the temp gauge waves like its in the wind

thermostat :yesnod:

[Danielson]

most e30's do this after a while, these gauges dont have a buffer or smoothing effect that new cars do so if a wire is a little loose or you hit bumps they tend to move a bit.

does the gauge straighten itself back up when you smack the dash? mine did, my 3 e30's all had a jumpy gas and temp gauge lol.

lol i havent tried smacking the dash...
i have a brand new thermostat and im picking up a new coolant temp sensor today. easy fix!
potential buyers can scratch that off thier concerns. :thumbsup:

[Nick B]

Hey Tyler, will your wind splitter fit on a Scion tC?

Also, as said before, temp gauge is super common.. smack the dash and it goes away. I learned that after thinking my old e30 overheated like 3 times and sat and waited on the side of the road to cool down, replaced water pumps, etc haha

haha yeah i pulled the sensor to swap it but they gave me the wrong part, wiped off the old one and put it in and it hasnt been acting up. i know its not really getting hot, but its obnoxious haha

[Red_Rocket]

Yummy!

I've always liked the look of this car man!

Little of both :lolg::leaving:On this note.

Tyler, will you accept secksual favors for a down payment?:???:

[Attn2detail]

Mine dances around, just a light tap of the dash and she straights right up. I'll take it apart someday and see if I can improve upon it.

It hasn't happens for me since I removed the temp sensor, wiped it off, and put it back.
Give it a go! It took 30seconds and a deepwell 17mm socket.

[trd_supra_guy]

[87supraT]

I might be interested in this depending on what happens with the insurance on my hatch after I was rear ended this morning.
