Wonder if I should part it out for the tranny, to put behind a K swap. OFC not for what they're asking. There's 328xi for the same price.

also spotted, but was away

I was going to grab it to steal the seats.

welcome to the baby shit magma seat club

RevYouUp 08-18-2021 11:55 PM

I’m not feeling the seats tbh, don’t mind the colour, but my lower back started aching driving back and fourth from Surrey to Richmond in a day.

BIC_BAWS 08-19-2021 12:53 AM

Are those the stock comfort seats? If so, they suck. LMAO

westopher 08-19-2021 06:04 AM

They’re Vaders. Vaders suck. Sport seats are awesome. Trade producer!

twitchyzero 08-19-2021 06:43 AM

seats are highly subjective to body type and can also take a while to find the ideal position

westopher 08-19-2021 06:47 AM

8 years of sitting in Vaders. There is no ideal seating position lol. At least they look cool.

BIC_BAWS 08-19-2021 07:41 AM

I'd trade for vadars if sedan/coupe is cross compatible. The Lux seats are what I'd imagine sitting in a Ford Galaxie 500 is like.

They are cross compatible for you, but the person in the coupe would be fucked because no quick release fold to get into backseat.

tofu1413 08-19-2021 12:09 PM

i always thought the lux/ sports seats were lovely in the E36


Vaders felt stiff... but they do look good.

TopsyCrett 08-19-2021 02:13 PM

Yeah agreed. Wanted to swap vaders into my e36 m3 but after sitting in one i was like nah. Ive done long cruises in my lux pack and the heated comfort seats didnt hurt my lower back

1993 Mazda MX-5 Special Edition - $6,890

Someone needs to go check this out. 200k km with hardtop seems like a great deal - only thing is the questionable North Van dealer it's sitting at.

I don't think it was a joke per se, but what ssjGoku69 said is correct. I'm unsure whether this particular model is supercharged or not (could very well be) but there were certain trims of that van that had I think a roots type supercharger from the factory.

Think of how many supercars out there have that design and configuration and then compare it to the van itself. Is it a joke? That's up to you to decide.

Hey if rusted out 4runners with 350k are selling for 7 grand, a manual previa is worth 10 in that condition lol
