Mods please delete as this post is off topic.

In all seriousness, this is really cheap. I am looking at getting a new TV this year, likely during or after the holidays. Would be interested to see the picture quality in person. Cheap TVs haven’t done me wrong yet.

Reviews are hit or miss, looks like some screen edge bleeding. Would make for an awesome shop tv. But if you wanted a better picture might be worth spending another hundred or two for a better display.

Alot of off-brand TVs are actually made by name brand company's like Panasonic, Sony etc.

So dont let the name steer you away. See who the parent company is before you buy!

Or at least the panel is made by LG or other name brand.

Curious what that might end up going for, price-wise. Might be a semi-affordable way into an M3.

On the other hand, I wonder what might be lurking under that fresh white paint. That steering rack looks corrody...

[straight6pwr]

is it me, or does that new white paint look pretty flat? still needs wetsanding/finishing?

imola e34?  just needs a set of M-parallels and a razor blade.

Yeah that steering rack/front subframe look pretty crusty... I wonder if there is any documentation of the body work. If I had to guess on price I would guess maybe somewhere around 15k if it doesn't come with an engine/trans and the bodywork was done reasonably well.

Paint looks damn good. IDK what @straight6pwr is talking about. I would be curious to what underneath.  What I don't see is an S14 anywhere in that storage unit. I guess for $1 a lack of a drivetrain, and some assembly required, it is a fair price.

I posted this same car with Mpars and no stickers that is a lot closer just a few days ago!

Seems like he at least has a good sense of humor, BUT it still ANNOYS me when people cant put an asking price. 

And damn it, I just realized he said he would drop it off.

I can make an assumption.... Old man likes little cars, took on too many projects to enjoy and now is getting too old to keep up with them.

Translation from his post.  What he said, "brand new water pump and thermostat"  What it means "Heads cracked and I am trying to pass the problem along to another sucker."
