I like the new f30s except for the headlights. I hate the "eyebrows" that they have. Which do you think looks better?

Gotta get pictures of the beautiful cardinal interior, M3 sport seats in the front.

courter_man_08 · 09-29-2012, 10:45 PM

razz, the first one. by far. the second one looks too much like the new Dodge Dart for me.

Definitely the E92. Th F30 just looks so cheap and boyracer.

Good deal?

If everything checks out.

Note that the driver's side side skirt is falling off. Probably nothing major but something to ask about. Better safe than sorry.

also take note that there's quite a few pieces of trim missing.

and, if you buy it, i will trade you for the amber fender lights, corner markers, and tails.

Alan777 · 09-30-2012, 10:00 AM

I think I might have an extra set of amber corners if you want them.

courter_man_08 · 09-30-2012, 10:06 AM

i do. i have a spare set of clears if anyone wants those

Alan777 · 09-30-2012, 10:15 AM

I took them off the car in spring, I'll let you know if I can find them

Cleaned up the chrome on the diving boards, cleaned up all the bumper trim, gone french with the headlights, rebuilt the drivers sports seat (that was a ****ing adventure). I'm having some motor issues and I'm not sure what is going on. I believe the previous owner my have missed a tooth when he did the timing belt- the clunking noise is frightening.

I'm also hoping to have it wet sanded and buffed, the paint/clear is in good shape but it has a ton of light surface scratches.

MC Pee Pants · 10-01-2012, 09:47 AM

Ok so the guy with the previous M3 never called me back to look at it. So heres another one i'm interested in. This one is 3hrs away.

Alan777 · 10-01-2012, 11:11 AM

ASCOFF · 10-01-2012, 11:33 AM

I love the green. Not sure about the price. I'd try to go a bit lower but maybe I'm wrong.

The good news, if you're off by a tooth it's no big deal and usually it won't break anything permanently.

The bad news is, if you're off by a tooth, you sure as **** know it. It shouldn't make a ton of bad noises but it should act like you're running 30 year old gasoline and a moldy, restrictive air filter.

Here is whats weird, it run strong. No lag, no hesitation, no loss of power.. but listen to this:

Someone said it maybe the valves, I legit haven't had time to check them- went on vacation to DC and now I'm swamped with trial cases. Any other thoughts besides valves?
