Why is it for sale?
I just purchased a Father/Son project car to work on with my father and I need to free up the space.
General Overview:
Car is an excellent 'driver quality' car. This means it's reliable, in mechanically good shape and drives great; it also means that it has it's bumps and bruises. I want to be as honest as possible in both pictures and description. The car is 98% stock save AKG FCAB, clear markers, m3 color stripes on the driver front kidney
The good:
Clean title. The car not appear to ever been in any accidents (all stickers/vin tags intact)
It's very dependable and drives excellent
It pulls strong, shifts great and the diff is quiet

There are two small surface rust spots where the drivers rear side glass meets the quarter panel
Rust on both mirror bases
There are dings
There is a 1/16th" crack on the diff mount ear- has not grown since I bought it.
It needs shocks/struts to replace the current OEM setup. I wanted to run coilovers.
