Keep the e30... until I sell mine.

now that the 03+ 4th gen legacy is importable that might be the better option. i dont know if the newer twin scrolls are better on our fuel though. but at least you can opensource tune them

I wouldn't blame you. I let my 94 Supra go a few weeks ago and it is nice to just have one fun car again. Older cars need upkeep and maintenance so it can take some of the fun away. Time and money.

I like the 996, Cayman, Boxster choices for modern weekend fun car. Or S2000.

this M3 is tempting if it can be grabbed in the low 20's

https://vancouver.craigslist.ca/bnc/...460706562.html

over 15k rule - would have it inspected.

if I can't have laguna - this is my fav e46 colour combo. It would look very handsome in my garage.

I should be more specific, I'd be getting rid of both pcar and E30 if I were to go modern... Hence the tough decision.

if downsizing - dont get the 1M - it won't do

maybe a lotus or nsx - but mind as well just keep the 911

speaking from experience - e46 + e90 m3, 996 c2, 1m, etc.

If the blockchain gets clogged like a week and a half ago. My transfer was stuck in limbo for like 7 days. Does the owner transfer the title when you see me send it or do I have to wait and hope he doesn't run away? Imagine sending it to the wrong address lol

Can’t you just hand him one of those fancy hardrive wallets with your coins in it? Keep in mind I have never dealt with this stuff. Ha

keep the 325i e30 (since BMW didn't actually make a 91 325is).
The 325is only ran from 1987-1990
