    FS: 1989 BMW s50 e30

    I have the opportunity to purchase a business from a friend, so I'm putting a feeler out on my e30.


















    It's an s50 swapped 1989 325is.
    173k on the body.
    Clean title.

    Engine:
    S50 Shortblock with M50 non-vanos head.
    -Turner Motorsport Chip
    -Revshift Poly Motor Mounts and flexdisk/guido s50/m50 swap kit
    -Bav Auto equal length headers to 3" exhaust and Magnaflow muffler.
    -Treehouse Racing booster
    -Bimmerforum silicon hoses
    -New gaskets all around. Vanos delete.
    -Bav Auto High Performance Ignition Coil
    -Bilstien struts and H&R Sport Springs.
    -G260 Transmission with UUC shortshift, Stage 2 clutch, m5 flywheel and 4.10 diff.
    -Ireland Engineering slotted rotors
    -Ireland Engineering Camber plates,
    -Ireland Engineering Stainless brake and clutch lines.

    -Around 90k on the engine, but that's word of mouth. You know how it goes with engine swaps, same old story. I CAN tell you it runs absolutely perfect, this swap was done right and I have paperwork on everything but the actual engine itself. It does not smoke, leak, or burn oil. It heats up to temp quick and stays right under the middle of the temp gauge. Heater is warm and quiet. There is no A/C. There is no vibration or idle bouncing. It runs like factory, or even better. I've never had an m20 that runs this well.

    -Ronal Turbos powder coated graphite with Brand new Dunlop 205/50/15s.
    -Rieger Front Lip (does have a crack. Ugh)
    -e28 spoiler
    -OEM Euro Grills,
    -New fog lights.

    -Tan Leather Interior. Two rips, one on the driver seat bolster I sewed back together and one on the passenger leg extension.
    -Dash is clean besides one small inch-long crack in the passenger side indent. Momo Monte-carlo wheel and matching shift knob. (The steering wheel in the pictures is different and will not be included)
    -Aftermarket Radio with reverse mounted usb for a stealth interface.
    -All Electronics work: Windows, Sunroof, speakers, OBC, Temp controls, etc.
    -Aftermarket keyless entry.


    The bad:
    -A crack in the windshield.
    -The paint isn't great. Hood and front end are nice, but has clearcoat pealing on the roof and trunk.
    -Car had a dent in the rear driver fender that has been fixed at a body shop. Not the best job in my opinion though. It has red primer over it currently while I decide whether to leave it or fix it. I have a spare quarter panel I may put on before vinyl wrapping/painting. It's a tough decision, the current bodywork is passable, but not perfect. The OEM fender line is gone. It doesn't pass my standards, but maybe someone looking for a track car or to add fender flares wouldn't care. I don't know. Text for photos on that.

    I have paperwork and more details on every single part if you're sincerely interested, please send a text.
    I will edit with more pictures soon, or text for more.



    $9500.

    Trades or offers I'll entertain.
    I live in Bend, OR.

    Thanks.


    I've been watching the e30 market for a long time and hope I price this accurately. If not, I apologize. I'm not trying to give it away. I've seen s50/52 swapped cars go for 12-13k. I understand this needs about $1000 in bodywork or a vinyl wrap, so I'm asking 9500.

            im referring to this..."I've never had an m20 that runs this well."

            almost sounds like he is confused about what is actually under the hood, i don't blame him because its a frankenstein build. Not to derail the sale thread but what happened to the vanos?

              What he means is that in comparison to any m20 engine he's had the m50 that's in the car now is much better.

                I was wondering what you replaced your 5 series with.
