Rust free ti shell. Needs a door and some body work but $600-700 seems like a decent enough deal to not have the burden of rust holes everywhere

basically my experience was: ad = "great condition seats." reality = seats with broken piping, mouse nests, and broken frames. pretty par for the course for craigslist, but, after driving hours and $15 in tolls to get there I was less than thrilled. 

i also didnt like his holier-than-thou-i-am-the-god-of-e30s-attitude. when i questioned the condition he got all butt hurt. Mr. $750,000 house guy is a cheap ass. 

TL;DR = Homer glen mope has good parts, but beware the condition might not be what you expect. 

Yeah. This is true for 90% of ANYTHING on Craigslist in Illinoying. I have bought maybe 2 cars from here and misc parts. I can only say 1 time there was no surprises. I have looked at so many cars there that werent 1/4th of what they were advertised as. Now I ask 1923854719327845 questions and ask for 92354782364578 pictures before I go down there.

If it was a bunch cheaper I'd consider reshelling the drift car

Reminds me of the last silver E90 I bought down there with a "blown headgasket". Hmm...

Someone on here owned this? Guy said the alternator went on it and it’s stuck in a gas station parking lot, he claims he has no money or a drivers license and tomorrow the gas station is gonna have it impounded. Sounds like he’ll take $2k... jk

Guy is asking $2k firm now, seems like a great deal for 370whp.

This is without a doubt one of the best things on the internet right now, out of all the things. It is amazing that the chassis has such incredibly high mileage and isn't completely fucked.

The whole build looks very nice. The thing that gets me is that stupid RED switch next to the window switches... WTF were they thinking??

NOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This seller has sold many clean BMW's.  his usual outlet is on BAT. this one looks like a great personal build, but with a high mileage chassis resale is problematic. probably not cool enough for BAT 

Awesome build never the less.
