I have to many projects; it's hard to finish when there are to many to think about.
84 GTI complete car with TONS of parts, big bumper kit, nearly rust free $1100 bought it for $1000 on here and added a bunch more parts but it has sat another year so...
07 Mazdaspeed 3. It's rusty, it has 245,000 miles. It stopped running I guess (wouldn't start today). I've driven it and it's a blast but it needs work. Again, I bought it, fixed some stuff, bought some stuff, have to much to do without it. Comes with a bunch of extra parts including a 3" turbo back, Megan coilivers, a spare black seat set, boxes of parts and knick nacks $1300
2006 I think C230, bought with a blown motor, bought a 67,000 mile engine out of a wreck that will need swapped in. Updated intake and all on the replacement engine. Smells of vape and desperation but is an over all decent car. NLA
If you are interested hit me up and I'll provide way to many pictures of each. They are all located in NW Ohio 567 20ate 918six
All clear titles in my name, no games just want to clear head space.
I really like a C230, is that the sport trim?
Yes it is, the stock intake on this one disengrated and ate the pistons. I can't find another instance of that occurring but looks like that's what happened here. Stock intakes were troublesome so the new engine already being upgraded is a plus
Interested in the Mazdaspeed depending on the severity of the rust.
Underneath is pretty OK, rear fenders are meh
What engine is in the 230?
Love the GTI but I'm also having to thin the herd
I still want the speed3 very badly. We just spent ~$50k on house repairs this month and my wife threatened me with death if I bring home any more cars
Yeah, I don't mind keeping all of them but it's hard to focus with so many extras in the wings
Bump, the Mercedes is off the market

Rabbit looks solid sir.
Thank you, it's very good
If the Mazda is still available this summer, I might have some interest, as well.
It's spring, the Rabbit and Speed3 are still for sale! I might add my 300CE to the list...
Dang, I go to Findlay to see the hose guys - Nagy. No room to snag that GTi.....
In reply to chandler :
we had a 300e and 300ce; I loved driving that 300ce until a high school kid totaled it.
$3500, it's kinda a project but mostly a driver. I daily it when it's nice
That 300ce is a good looking car.

I love it but could use the space and money for something else
In reply to chandler :
Interesting, currently have an e90 project runner. What does it need? I am trying to decide whether to keep doing the minor things for the e90 or find something older I am familiar with (ie e46 sedan, e39 530i).

I'm guessing the Coupe? It's weird little stuff that doesn't affect it enough for me to make it a priority. There's a driveline vibration; I've replaced the guibos and the carrier bearing and it's still there. It idles rough and stinks, probably an O2 sensor....runs fine just at idle it's rough. Clear coat is failing. Heater is stuck on defrost...even in the summer, there is a fix but I had planned to just get another controller from a junkyard. I just pop the sunroof and open the windows. Leaks a little oil and trans fluid; just did trans filter and fluid and oil change. Engine taps at start up. I love it and it breaks necks but I have a lot of cars and if it sold I'd be OK with it.
*sigh* Tell me more of this GTI...
