@SteelBlue They probably filled the M3 shell with dirt after they picked it up

I used to work for a place that bought aluminum cans.  It was always funny to call people out on trying to add junk in their cans to get a few extra pennies.  Empty whole cans weigh the same per barrel so if yours weigh more... Or if sand is coming out of the bag when dumping them out...

That's why you have to pay off the guy weighing them. Everybody wins!

Have thee no faith?

It is 5 speed, 126k. 

With each passing day I grew less and less interested in the E30. It simply needed too much work, I have no space, no tools, and coupled with a lack of motivation I knew it was just going to rot in the garage. Time to move on, but I'm sure I'll be back in a BMW soon enough, I always come back....

Next time though, I'm thinking another M car.

Some day...

Now that the GF officially passed  her big medical test thingy she wants to go test drive cars. So far it's between an M2, Audi TTS, and possibly a used Cayman if we can find one CPO in her price range. Needless to say I'm pretty pumped!

She's set her limit right around $60k, and truth be told, the Audi is probably the best option for her.

For $60k, an Alfa Romeo Julia Quad is in the sights.

No RS3?

She's leaning more towards a 2 door, as she wants something "sporty" before buying an SUV to haul around our hypothetical children.
