One of a kind often means "built to one person's preference" and usually not in a good way.

Don't need to know much to see that it has a funky body kit on it that looks like an E30 M3 but probably isn't unless they chopped it to make it into one...

Can ask these guys too:

Not worth it man. I've had several E30s and still an active member on several forums. You will get your butt laughed at if you pulled up to a meet in that.

I'd say for $4800, go buy an E36!

There's a killer e30 on r3vlimited right now for about $8k, swapped s52, ast coil overs and the list goes on. It's a killer car with tons of goodies on it. I've been drooling over it but don't have the funds to buy

That's looks pretty ghetto dude... I'd stay away
188K is a ton of miles for any car

I'd stay far far away from that car. I see a buttload of fiberglass and bond discovery in your future.

If you mean your OP was sarcastic, then it was a bit too thin, because I definitely didn't take it that way.
