He has wept with a number of us who have wrecked our boosted engines.

There is also a stage 3 clutch listed in the ad too which is possible evidence. But mostly its just his spidey-sense tingling.

he posted it on facebook as well. he has more info there: "It was boosted for ~9k miles on a very mild tune making 340whp ish. It was very healthy and ran great up until the head gasket went between cylinders 4 & 5."

That would be incredible for 24 hours of lemons or even better the lemons rally

There was a e23 limo some guy on r3v bought last year but it wasn't anywhere near as clean as that one.

Reminds me of this:

[stealthbimmer]

Picked up a set of style 42s for $50. They are ugly,but they will clean up with some work refinishing

Though about those myself until I rembered how much it sucked to refinish a set of style 5's...good score either way!

Considering what they are selling for in good condition (check out ebay)... I couldnt pass it up.

I work in the swimming pool industry. I've got nothing but time in the winter to work on this type of stuff...it helps me keep my sanity

Seeing as there is an F40 in the background, I assume he wants top dollar. As he should, that's an awesome car minus the autotragic.

Talking to the seller about this... I think I could get it for under his $700 asking price. I just don't want / have the ability to tow the darn thing home to fix it...

[HipMF]

Red e34 is an odd duck, but the price seems right; depends on mileage/service history. It's a crap shoot with a car this old, but if you're shooting for the low end of the price spectrum, my strategy is to go for high-mileage cars that are running and driving, or have been running and driving until very recently. I'll take a car with some wear and tear and a little rust over one that's in great shape but needs suspension, exhaust, brakes, cooling system, and has 4000 rubber, plastic and vinyl parts that are about to disintegrate as soon as you start actually using them.
