Anyone here have any experience with E30 BMWs? I know a few guys in town who have them, and with a bit of work and a good drop they can be SICK. Plus they're just as bulletproof as the Toyotas, I know of quite a few all-original BMWs with over 300k miles. I've seen several for sale for $1000-1500 with around 200k miles that would make a great project. Looking for a 325i with a 5 speed and LSD, preferably a convertible but would settle for the right coupe. Sedan only if its an IX (awd).

This one pictured has been giving me inspiration as I follow his build. I probably won't go as low as he is since I'm going to DD the car year round.

I had an 1984 318i in high school; got it for $1200 with a big dent in the rear quarter panel. I've always wanted an E30 M3 w/E36 M3 motor in it in Laguna Seca blue.
