similar power and towing potential of the wagon,less weight,and exchangability of parts I already posess.

they're within my price range as well. my wagon is only worth about $10k as it is.

nothing has been decided yet,a lot hinges on what happens with the wagon tomorrow.

I've been over the car for a while now,and the gearbox decided that it didn't want to play any more on the way home from work today. just managed to limp back,and am going to get it towed to the A/T guys we use in the morning to check it out. hopefully it's nothing major. if it is,it gets fixed and the car gets traded for an R34. if it isn't,I keep driving it.

get an M35, bigger, faster than your C34 (stock i mean) and will probably use less fuel!

car was towed over to the auto tranny guys this morning. the box is stuffed and has to be pulled out. I'm taking the spare R34 RWD box I have here over to them in the morning to use for parts if required.
bottom line,it's getting rebuilt.

it's a waiting game atm for how long and how much it's going to cost.

regardless of the outcome,the stagea is now up for sale. if anyone wants a S2 C34 with towbar,tein coilovers,leather interior,etc. etc. bring $12k and come see me.

what I'm going to replace it with is still undecided.
