What’s up? I got in a workout, tried to find a spot for car photos (would like to borrow my buddy’s E46 M3 or R33 for that), and the rest of my day will be Halo based.

Sitting on hold with Verizon support waiting to get my sim flagged as CDMA-less so I can get texts on my new OnePlus 8 Pro. 25 minutes and counting.

Godspeed. That sounds awful.

The hold music is just a 30 second loop.

The worst part is that I should be able to do this through the website but the website doesn’t think my sim card exists.

You think at this point they could patch you into satellite radio or something.

Alltrack is cool in my book.

I guess that means it really IS uncool

I think it’s cool, but it’s also a white Volkswagen station wagon, so I’m probably with you in having... unconventional taste.

Yeah, I guess white wagons are kind of — hold that thought.

Kind of lame.

Yeah, absolutely.

Would you be interested in doing a photoshoot of the E30? I could use good pictures for the eventual sale ad. I polished it, once.

Yeah absolutely!

I don't know what your work schedule is like but I'm free on weekends, I also have vacation booked for the last 2 weeks of August, or if you had some way of picking it up I could give you the keys and could use it as long as you want.

I'm free August Long, or end of August at some point.

August long weekend sounds good.

I’m interested in clean e30s. Just putting that out there. Also, wanna drive it to southern Ontario?

During a pandemic? No!

After driving it to BC last year for the OPPO meet, I realize just how fatiguing the NVH is on a 34 yo, lowered, de muffled car is. So also no.

Heh, fair points all around. I wouldn’t personally want to drive it across either, both having owned an e30 before and having recently done a long drive in a modern car and gotten tired of the NVH in that too.

I dunno if "clean" would describe it....but it can hustle!

As long at it’s not terminally rusted like my previous e30 it qualifies as clean enough to me. My standards for cleanliness aren’t as stringent as yours might be. :)
