E-30 becoming more noticed by collectors?

The April issue of the BMW CCA magazine (Roundel) featured two different E-30 stories. These demonstrate how timeless these cars are. One went to Barrett Jackson for 29,700 and the other to a collector as well. There were some nice ones advertised for sale in the classifieds. One of the ads was mine and it did not get a response right away but I repeated the ad in June with a much better response. I think the market for these cars has been noticed by collectors. I may be sorry I have let that one go.
I still have two to take care of so will keep working on them to make them better. Fixing some oil leaks for sure.

Good to know. I have been debating whether it is worth it to get the old girl re-painted. The clear coat is starting to lift. The problem is urethane paints have pretty much been banned in California. Everything is now water base.

Might be worth a trip out of state to a shop that uses the good stuff. It is painful putting $4000 into paint that will not last. If the car is otherwise in good condition, the expense is worth the enjoyment of having a very nice ride. It is enjoyable having mine noticed nearly every time I take it out.

Recent issues of the Roundel has some nice E-30 for sale and the prices are also very nice...for the seller. These are truly collectible cars.
