was considering going to look at it, but probably won't. Kinda have to assume the worst, and can't afford to fix an m20 with a broken timing belt right now... could be a great deal if it's something simple...

don't think i've ever seen a daytona violet e30 before (iX late model): https://www.panjo.com/buy/1991-bmw-325ix-daytona-violet-5-speed-coupe-328550?utm_source=email_followedcommunities_101816&utm_medium=email&utm_content=followedcommunities&utm_campaign=followedcommunities&pid=55273&emailtoken=9cb629d22dee46fcb65b93b90eed5e59

Daytona violet e30's are gorgeous. There was a special Daytona edition touring that had awesome purple accented interior=)

Can I keep it in your garage? 

[Earl]

I would let you if I had a garage=P IIRC, you did have an e30 in the garage next to your e21 and that has since been sold 

[The Full Banana]

Oh that is awesome. I really want that!

[Boris3]

Very cool car! Pick this up and join the vintage race circuit. Midwest Council even has a Vintage run group for the Long Race this weekend at Blackhawk Farms.

You are correct, but that is my tenants garage space unfortunately

Damn=/

[KaiserRolls]

Buy it anyways and store it somewhere

[Bassboy3313]

I would in a heartbeat, but I have to look at the big picture. It has been a race car from the factory (aka no title) which means I would need to buy a trailer and a truck to haul the trailer whenever I would want to take it to the track. Otherwise it will just sit in storage forever and never be used. Reality sucks!

[REKIII]

You can pick up car trailers pretty cheap, especially since this car is a feather weight.  I'm sure your bass boat tow rig could haul it with no issues.

Borrow Snap's van, remove the rear van seats, get some 4' 2x8s for ramps, push the car into the van = done, plus you've more than 1/2 way towards a chump car team. [emoji41]

Meanwhile, someone go lowball this guy and buy his swapped ti so I stop thinking about it:

6cyl ti must be awesome on track. The liveliness of an e30 rear susp. with the great engine placement of the e36 front end
