d.mcknightHaha yeah in the picture its that way i just hadn't fully tightened it onto the shift knob, its sitting the proper way now though
just a heads up, im not sure about the laws where youre at but i know in vancouver bc if you get pulled over with a non-conventional shift knob (ie beer tap/ski pole/ big black dildo/etc) you may end up with a ticket

no biggie, check cause it might just be vancouver that sucks donkey balls. a friend of a buddy of mine got over $1000 in tickets for his civic si being lowered too much, too much tint, speeding on the sea to sky highway, a budweiser beer tap as his shifter, and a few other things i think. needless to say, he deserved it, you have to try pretty hard to get pulled over on that stretch of highway nowadays..... but still, it sucked ahha
Winter beater on the left, summer driver/daily driver on the right. The e30 is in the process of a matte army green wrap with carbon fiber roof at the moment for winter time.
looking to buy a 05 wrx with 175k on body, 20k on a rebuilt engine (previous one was blown), new clutch, new trans with 50k and lightweight flywheel. The guy is asking $6200 boo, would it be worth it to buy it?

No, 175k with a rebuilt engine because the other was blown? Thats maybe worth $3-4k. Im guessing the owner was a ken block wannabe and still beat the new motor up. You can get something so much better for $6200

buying a used WRX is like marrying an ex-prostitute
Titus69My god, thats sexy as hell. What are those wheels?
Titus69They look sick on it. A lot nicer than all the same looking wrx's on here imo
Granite_StateLove the stance and bolt on fenders.
LucasThat wide fitment is $$$.
I appreciate the kind words. Pictures don't really do it justice for showing how wide it is haha took a lot of work to get the wheels fitting properly haha

Unfortunately the paint is pretty much destroyed from not being taken care of by previous owners, so until i have the time to properly paint it, it is getting wrapped this color

big fan of that color personally on the right car. Looks great with black accents / rims

It's a BMW not a Messerschmidt...
I mean, if you're going to wrap it, wrap it in flat black or something.

properly wrapping a car cost the exact same as painting one. Not to mention e30s aren't very easy cars to wrap with the way the body is. e30's are small cars, it really doesn't cost much to paint one. Please please please, just paint it.

to propoerly paint it would cost at least twice as much, and unless theres some rust problems, if you want a flat black car i would wrap it instead of painting it. flat paint is a bitch to maintain

its a matter of paying thousands for a paint job + making sure all the panels are perfectly straight and completely rust free. All i am paying for is the vinyl, which is around $500, and my good friend wraps cars professionally and is going to do it in return for me helping him out on some car related projects. no point in getting a perfect professional paint job on a car that is currently a winter beater, especially when the paint job would cost more than double what i payed for the car back when i bought it. will it get a nice paint job? most likely someday, just not until other stuff is finished first.

God, just please one day restore it. 325ix's are a dying breed and one of the most amazing cars ever made. I looked for two 1/2 years searching for a Black 5speed in half decent condition until I settled on my 97 impreza coupe (with sunroof! so super rare! being it's the 2.2L). Take care of that thing.
omnidataI have stronge urges to buy a Z3 and dress it up Afrikakorps style as James May did:

Don't worry its absolutely going to be restored, after the typhoon is restored and painted of course. Until then ill be on the hunt for a transmission to get rid of the autotragic that is currently in it. I love both of my cars and don't plan on letting either get in any worse shape at all. I like to think of the wrap as a sort of band aid for the horrendous paint that is on it until i have the time to properly bring it back to its glory days.
What would you say if I found that the picture of you on your profile looks nothing like the actual owner?Because I have found him through some car page lol. Explain.

Because he helps build these cars and doesnt own them
lol unless stock and rustless then he should. Other than that itll be horrible, drifted to death and rotten. OP should get something like a Honda CRV..like me.. or even a nice Tacoma. Subarus are good but $6K will get you so far if you live in a area known for rotting cars.
