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

Extremely clean e46 touring with a ZHP swap.

'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....
