Hey all,
Looking for an e30 and getting ready to pull the trigger. I know 40(ish) isn't going to buy me something perfect or even close to it, but want something that I will be able to drive as I fix/modify things. The car will be hopefully a forever car. I'm 6.5 years into e36 m3 ownership and understand what these cars entail with the knowledge that the s14 is a totally different beast than the NA spec S52 motor. My first car was an E30 325 18 years ago, and I have driven modded/enthusiast cars since then.
I would really prefer an s14 car but will consider s50/52 swaps as long as they are done very well, with OEM standards for finishing. Modded cars are totally fine. Rebuilt titles are considered but A) must be properly documented and/or have a clear pass on a PPI and B) can not be flood related as we are not allowed to re-register flood related salvage cars. Long term owners are held in extremely high regard to me, but I will consider any amount of owners/ ownership lengths on a car.
List of things that are important to me:
Reliable runner
no serious structural rust
No stripped race/track cars that can not easily be returned to street cars (cages, fuel cells, major weight reduction, etc)
Not worried about:
milage
interior condition
minor to medium paint defects
looming maintenance like tires, suspension, bushings, etc.
colour combinations
Dot-R panels
Year of manufacture
I'm located in Vancouver, B.C. Canada, but willing to either travel or ship cars.
Thanks for reading, you can get ahold of me quickly at
