    For your cons, i'd remove everything, except needs a new strut. the others will be a HUGE turn off for buyers.

    The pros and cons are definitely not on the Craigslist ad haha. I have a quite a few people interested in it actually, and someone wants to trade a minty e30 too. 5500 is the highest offer right now.

      Is this even a question?? For the price point you're in, I'd look into e46's. I've had e46 daily drivers for the past 6 years, and of the 45+ cars I've owned they have been the most reliable. I put about 25k miles a year on my daily.

        The only problem I have is the fact I put 2000$(at least) into it, and finally got it to perfect working order. It's hard to justify that.

          If you are 3 semesters into your ME degree and really think you'd rather be a machinist/diesel mechanic/other job you shouldn't look at the time and money you've already invested when considering the idea of changing majors. Its a "sunk cost". Otherwise you may end up sticking with something you dont like and regretting it in the long run.

          Cars are not as big of deal as a career choice is, but sometimes you have to take a loss in order to get to something better (like I did when I decided to sell my house)

            Damn good example.

            Mitch, Take the mint E30. or get an E46. Honestly, the VW isn't worth it. Dalton Morris totalled his twice before he realized they're hunks of junk. Get rid of that pile of shit asap

              Snap, that is possibly the best way to put it. Definitely not sticking with it now. Probably going to get an e46 because its newer and the ladies like them ;) I also hate e36 sideskirts.

                        Sell it. The Vr6 is a nightmare. Your very honest in your posting, but the cons are mostly opinions. If the strut is bad, fix it before you sell it. It will make your life a lot easier.

                          I definitely didn't put the pro's and cons in the Craigslist post haha. It's not bad, but I feel like it might be bad sometime

                          Soon. Maybe the spring is? One side sits a bit lower than the other.

                            Which side sits lower? Drivers or passenger? An which side is the gas tank on.

                            Little factoid. Cars naturally sit lower on the passenger side, so that when a driver is in it, it sits relatively flat. Ironically, my car sits lower on the left, partially due to me being blind, and because a full tank of gas weighs more then I do.

                                or just light it on fire, accidentally of course.

                                probably safer, don't have to jump out of a moving vw.

                                    Duh. It's on the side of the gas tank. You may have solved it, because it rides just fine.
