'87 325is 5 speed with some mods FS in NC (Raleigh / Durham / Chapel Hill)
SOLD
I am selling my 1987 325is. It's red (Zinnoberrot) with black interior, a 5-speed manual, and has some modifications I think almost everyone would enjoy.
Asking $2500 OBO. Update: I'm now asking $2200 OBO, because a pre-purchase inspection by a potential buyer turned up some rust under the car I did not know about. See pictures in album. (That buyer is still interested, but I think the car might fetch a higher price than his soft-offer). Contact me using PM.

Selected maintenance history from my receipt binder. I'm not including small stuff like oil changes in this. In reverse chronological order.
