The amount of abandoned "drift builds" on craigslist is ridiculous

Search "drift" on Craigslist. It's enjoyable

they spent all the money on vape.

Yeah, it's never abandoned I guess. It's "went a different direction"

And a welded diff is a "pro"

Even if you did plan to drift a car why the fuck would you tell everyone when you're trying to sell it?  To look like a badass?  Putting that in your ad makes you look dumb and tells a seller this car has been abused and treated like shit.

nail on the head. kids building drift cars is very trendy right now. 'rat' cars were the trend before that, and if you have a ratty drift car, then you're on the pulse of car society, man.

I texted the seller, 113k and a full binder of service history, at $3500 with the hard top included that is an absolute steal. If I had the time/money I would totally buy this one

minty clean 318is that only needs a transmission (they cost like $200) for $5500 is a good deal these days. a near identical car popped up for sale in Madison when I was searching for an e30 - I called the guy about 6 hours after the ad went up and it was already sold.
