That's an example of a car that you don't mess with when they're cheap and beat down. Decent ones can be had cheap enough. 8 series specific parts are stupid expensive.

i can't remember ever seeing an e31 gutted track car. ditch the 12-banger and go with something easier to maintain. although there are much better choices out there, it would still look awesome around the track!

^I've had a swapped e31 as a dream floating around in my head lol

Looks like a really clean e30 sedan for a great price, considering the condition and miles

I always get confused when a car has snow tires and is claimed to have no rust

'no rust' could be the loosest term in the history of craigslist.

generally 'no rust' means the person doesn't see any rust on the middle of body panels. it doesnt mean there isnt rust under panels, in corners, on the underside of the car, etc.

Odd way to look at this.

A few years ago I was at Concours and I saw them pull a brand new X5 off the showroom floor and take it in back to put on snow tires as the new owner wanted them on. They installed the snow tires and then rolled it out into the lot......should I have assumed it was rusty?

I do see your point. But brand new x5 you saw them roll onto the lot vs a 25 year old e30....
