I love all these cars but wouldn’t be able to choose if I had the funds which I don’t.

Why don’t you get a cheap one?

the white on red car claims to have 8k in fresh work done. 2 years ago I looked at a pristine 318is for sale and a ppi revealed 2500 in work needed to be done. id rather spend more upfront on a good looking car than be suckered into a 3k project that looks like crap. under 10k I still think these cars are the deal of a century and the days of clean 3k e30's are gone so might as well hop in now before prices get out of hand. with all this said I don't have the space for another car right now and would feel guilty not garaging it.

You could get an E46 in decent shape for the same price.

the stock one, you don’t want someone else’s frankenride no matter how well done.

Though I hate the combative nature of his ad, would make me less interested in dealing with him.

I like the red guy. I wouldn’t buy a swapped one but that is just me. It seems as if the red one, and the white/red one have both had a good amount of work done, but the interior in the red once is the nicest.

E30 is an itch I hope to scratch someday, but I’m hoping “the one” will more or less fall into my lap.

Get it up on a lift to make sure the underside is clean and as long as it is I’d take the white/cardinal red car all day every day. Price is a bit high for the miles but these cars are appreciating. Closer to $6k is fair.
