SpeedWorksRacing Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 That kidney is not in decent condition. Good luck with the sale man, I can assure that whoever buys this is going to be very happy. This thing is one of the coolest E30's I've ever seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrackRat Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 how is a 2000 dollar car going for 11500 It's not a $2K car folks. It was a GRM Challenge car, then was an Ultimate Track Car Challenge - lots of new parts/work/etc was put into it. I have seen this car run several times, it's incredible. Amazing power and super light. Free bump for a cool seller and great car! Someone give it a good home! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sscguy Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Interesting. I read the most recent issue of GRM with the rat-rod version of this for the 2011 Challenge winner, and wondered how much a better, non-Challenge version would go for. Not a bad price, really Out of my range, by, oh $11K, but good to know for the future. Good luck with the sale! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fair Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Very clean car that is well worth the asking price, if not more! You have to ignore the whole "GRM $20xx" budget numbers, as that doesn't include a lot of safety gear or the hundreds if not thousands of hours of labor involved with making every little part to meet the rules for that competition. Not to mention that they've added thousands in parts and work after they took it beyond the GRM Challenge rules. Great price on a sweet car!

Karl Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 if only you spelled it Kondor than I would have to buy it, to protect the name. Very cool car, I wish I could own it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
