Tell me I'm wrong, Oppo. Tell me I'm so, so wrong for wanting this.

C'est la vie of a poor college student.

It's disappointing it's the eta, and I've never really done car maintenance before so I wouldn't feel comfortable taking on swapping in the 325is engine, but still...

Its a low end E30 with a M20 I6, you can fix that car with a hammer

Thanks, man. I'll definitely keep that in mind. What sort of things do you have?

I don't know enough about E30's or M20's but I'm sure anything from the odometer gear breaking, some electrical issues, rust (but this one seems clean).

Timing belt and water pump are common maintenance items but they are easy to fix, vacuum leaks on a car that old, and maybe the drive line coupler but aside from that not much mechanically. I loved my 325ic (convertibles are a flexy bunch) but it was taken from me too soon.

Hmmm. Interesting. That sounds very promising for me! Thanks a lot.
