Listing this for a friend. I have access to the car, and can show it. If you are looking at this car, we can assume some things. This is a 34 year old car, and is not concours. There are imperfections and items that could be addressed- none critical. It was built to be and remains a great driver's car, in every sense of the word. It is cleaner than many E30s out there, but can be driven without anxiety.

Starting in 2010, this car has been constantly improved upon to create the best daily driver E30 with MANY choice parts. Originally built by Guten Parts in New Jersey, with much love and care. Then went to a new owner in same area, then to AZ Owner #1, now is owned by AZ Owner #2.
Via Guten in 2015: “If there was ever a definition of While you are in there... Roxy is it. We worked on this car for more then 18 months. The goal of the project was go through the entire car and make it an amazing daily. The exterior finish is not perfect, but if it was our fear was the new owner would not drive it. Roxy is meant to be enjoyed, she is light and super fun to drive. To say everything is new would be an understatement. Its newer and or improved. BBS wheels Custom finish by Renewed Finishes. Custom interior by Euro Interiors Engine complete refresh AC works HR suspension Super Spring Exhaust Short Shifter, etc. etc. etc.”
Since then, some things have changed or been improved even further. This car was not driven that much when it got to Arizona and it was no fault of the car, it was first owned by someone who liked newer sports cars more, and then it went to someone who simply spent more time on his other E30. Note: If you brought your own wheels, something may be able to be done to improve that price. I want my friend to get the most he can for the car, but he is reasonable and realizes it is time to pass this car on. Let's get Roxy a new loving home.
If you have read this far and are a serious buyer, I've created a document with as much history as I could find (130+ page document). I scoured posts on r3vlimited, archive.org, and other websites to find all the information and pictures possible. I also took over 100 pictures and some short videos.
Please only contact me if you are serious.
