I saw an E30 convertible stopped at the apex of an intersection. The L rear wheel looked like it came unattached at was leaning into the wheel well. I don't know much about 'em. What does this sound like, broken control arm?

Could've been intentional.

probably hit a curb or something and bent the trailing arm or subframe.

I've done both

Looked just like that. A guy was trying to jack it up, & I was thinking why bother, but maybe it was a nut related issue.

Hahaha that VW is awful! I don't see the appeal of doing that to your car..

How much was it leaning? I know I need to get around to doing the rear bushings in my Ti and both rear wheels lean in slightly because of that
