Long behold guys, what we have all been waiting for, the best e30 in the world!

http://pistonheads.com/sales/988023.htm

Im actually impressed by how the rear windows go down as I havent seen it done before but thought about it.

Dont know why he hasnt posted more pics of the engine bay if its so good.

Have any of you guys seen this car at "Sana pod", is it really that good in reality ? winkeye

its probably an e46 system he has retro fitted, quite a good mod, but is it actually worth the effort.... No :)

They're motorized pop outs. Can't remember if some e36's came with them or not. Best E30? I wouldn't be seen dead in it! My old V8 though.. That to me is the Best e30!

"BRAND MEW CONDITION MUST BE SEEN TO BELIEVE WAS FICHERED IN TOTAL BMW MA" as far as I got, I'm afraid. What was it like?

To be fair, it looked reasonably well put together in the TBMW feature. Not to my taste at all though, and E30Pratz.com (sic) are a waste of space - I knew they took the michael on their advertised prices, but when I was looking for a part I couldn't get anywhere I emailed them and got the most retarded reply I think I've ever seen, from one of the proprietors. Way to do business, dickhead! There's also no way in the world it's worth 6k - if they had any brains at all they'd be breaking it up anyway, bearing in mind the business they claim to be in. Perhaps the know they'll never sell anything that way either, so have to cut and run.

Lool, I suppose he could argue that it wasnt advertised with the steering wheel in the pics!

The thing is sooner or later there is going to be an idiot that wonders along and buys it at that price convinced he has one of the best e30s out there!

I likt the pop-out windows and sat-nav mod to be honest.
Rest of the car is pretty crap though, especially that paint job coupled with body coloured eye-brows, M3 mirrors and Alpina reps :roll:



Maybe it's 6K because it transforms into BumbleBee like is shown on the pratz website :P

I think the best E30 in the world would have the M tec kit on straight.

Can think of some cars which could be the best E30, but that isn't even in the top 1000.
