Down. 6k down.

A guy can dream...Did you read the post? He said $6000- you have to add a zero to get a GTO.
I saw quite a few regularly on CL in the Seattle area for $5k-ish - routinely. Very nice ,garage kept, 60 to 100k miles on average (pre-Covid). They are the V8 ones (which is a good engine, as is transmission). I like inline 6's, too, but also love V8s. Currently my drivers are a V6 and an I-5 turbo (which is ok), but I need to get an i6 or v8 for fun.
I was referring to the Jaguar XK8 I mentioned higher up - sorry I was talking across you; should have figured out what you meant. The six in the E46 is indeed sweet. M54 (?).A 330ix is most definitely an inline 6. The only 3 series that I know of that came with a V8 is the E92 M3.
Perhaps you were referring to a 5 series?
Beautiful car. One of the great American icons. If you limit vacuum advance and run 30* to 32* total mechanical, it should run OK.It is a ‘66.
I don’t drive it much, doesn’t run great on pump gas as compression is too high and I don’t want to convert it to E85. Runs great on >100 octane racing fuel when I can get it.
I’m currently adding A/C with factory parts. Might have to use R134, haven’t gotten that far yet.View attachment 35743
I need to learn what all the bmw lingo is and means. I read the e46 had water pump and vanos issues. I know nothing about vanos. they seem intriguing to own though.E46 BMW, maybe try and find a 330i with a stick? My sister has the 330i "Performance" (2003) and it's a fun little car.
I have a 2007 Accord V6 sedan with the rare 6MT. Room for 5 with a reasonable amount of luggage. Or 2 and an Xmas tree (has a fold down back seat).What about an Accord V6 of a Camry V6 with a stick. They did make them. My wife had Accord Coupe V6 with a stick which had plenty of zip.

Thanks. I think I’ll try that when I have some time to play with it.Beautiful car. One of the great American icons. If you limit vacuum advance and run 30* to 32* total mechanical, it should run OK.
You made my day...
The DOHC I6 isn't hard to work on, but BMW's in general have a lot of plastic in the cooling system so stuff does fail. My sister's never had a water pump issue but I did have to help her replace the plastic overflow tank which is a common failure item as are the valve cover gaskets and oil filter housing gaskets. None of it is "hard", the cars are actually pretty easy to wrench on, but they can be a bit needy.
This checks all your boxes and it's under budget. Time for a road trip.

Instead of spending $15-$20K on a larger, reliable car for your family, you decide to spend the money on two separate, small old cars? Sounds very practical.
