more crackhead pricing. $600 for e30 bottlecaps

Woah, must be that gold paint and the VW emblems. 

I've sold sets to Honda guys for cheap, looks like I should have posted on VW forums.

By comparison, this is a good deal for a very clean set of e30 sport seats. Anyone know the seller?

yeah i think it was something like 14k for a couple years. the guy has one of the sentimental attachment problems. a clean e21 could be worth a few thousand, but the 80s ghetto-blaster theme (white everything, terrible wheels, bad tint) make it look cheap.

Check recent BaT results, even safaribeige automatics make $4k these days.  An "S" package car can make $10 grand+, if it's the right car, which this one is not due to the aforementioned "theme" and the 175k miles.  My opinion is given the miles and the un-doing that would need to be done, it's a ~$6000 car, if he "un-whited" the bumpers and grille he could potentially get $7500.

The thing I find the most interesting is that this car was for sale when I first decided I was going to get another e21, this was every inch of 6 years ago, maybe even 7 or 8 and he was using the exact same pictures and ad back then.  Only the price has changed and maybe the mileage.  I don't remember what it started at.

I've got some 16x8 et23 style 4's waiting for a coat of paint and some sticky rubber! Those would look pretty nice though

Right. There is no way in hell its still in the same condition. If he keeps it much longer though and doesnt budge on the price, im sure sooner or later the price will be accurate. lol

The engine is bullet proof, the headgasket on the other hand.  That not so much.  Duhhhhh.

Salvage title E46 M3. Seems solid minus the title issue.

I've seen that car in person. Knew right away something happened in the rear because the back bumper just doesn't look right

[Ryan...]

I wanted that thing hella bad, almost listed the Rover and went to look at it.

A LSB M3 is the first car that ever actually caught my eye, and the reason I'm into cars, specifically BMWs, today.
