like everyone says, pretty bulletproof little cars. IMO, if you spend anything extra on it, just get anything cosmetic or mechanical back to good shape. when theyre clean, they look like baller ass little cars. and yes, it is slow as balls. the dash is prone to cracking. but for mid 80's cars, i was very surprised with all the options it had.

i would like to get into a bmw again after im done with the s2k. be sure to negotiate the price down for the ac and water pump. it is about to be summer and not having ac sucks. congratulations on graduation and good luck in law school.
paying $1000 for it as is, unless we can negotiate something. Needs tires and a water pump before its driveable. Then it needs a/c, seats and a paint job. No rust, just fade. its been sitting in the sun for about a year.

Thanks for the helpful insight.
