SOLD to a local.
OVERVIEW: For sale is a sweet sterling silver 1990 325i with an S50 swap, black E30 M3 interior, E30 M3 5-lug and brake conversion and coil-over suspension. I don’t need to tell you that it’s fast and handles well – you know that – or you wouldn’t be looking for one yourself J.
Price:
$9000 and after you read about all of the premium goodies – I think you’ll find it to be a very fair price.
Why Sell?
I love the idea of a light(er) weight E30 with updated power and handling (they’re a blast to throw around) – not to mention the classic style. However, it’s far more than I need for the very limited use it will get. Not looking to trade.
What I know about the car:
Chassis:
· 1990 325i Coupe with about 270k miles
· VIN: WBAAA1314LEC68925
Engine/Trans:
· S50 had about 180k when installed
· Cold air intake
· TRM tuning
· 5 speed manual (original E30) -fairly smooth
· Short Shift Kit (type unknown)
· 3.73 LSD
· E30 radiator
· Aluminum thermostat housing
· New water pump and upgraded to metal impeller type
· A/C not installed (have compressor, new dryer and R134 retrofit kit – need lines fabbed [have parts])
· 9-13-09 Edit - New gaskets and plugs installed. Have new valve cover gasket (current one is leaking) and spark plugs waiting to be installed
Exhaust (new from cat back):
· Stock manifold
· High-flow cat (not sure of brand)
· Center resonator
· Ultraflo muffler with twin stainless tips
Suspension/Brakes:
· E30 M3 Suspension modified for coil-overs –Eibach springs & converted to wheel studs
· Bilstien shocks
· Eibach sways that are properly connected to strut housing in front like on M3s
· Treehouse racing LCAB's
· IE rear sub frame mounts
· Front strut bar (generic – aluminum)
· E30 M3 calipers and rotors (upgraded brass slider pins on front)
· Braided stainless lines
Exterior:
· Recent non-professional re-spray to what PO claimed was a very straight car. Job is about a 15 footer – I’d say about 6 out of 10 (I’m picky about over-spray and quality prep – this one does not meet my standards but most people say it looks great – car get’s lots of compliments)
· Original VIN on all panels
· Grille and other body trim was painted – looks pretty good
· 17X8 ASA Wheels (AR1 - I believe) with 235/40R17 tires -Some curb rash and scratches – about 7.5/10
· iS Deck spoiler
· Clean tail lights
· Have yet to find any rust and PO replaced sunroof due to bubbles
· Euro HellaH4 head lights
· Clean look with abandoned antenna (was pushed up inside the c-pillar) but reception not too good (see pic for plug in hole on rear quarter)
