    FS:1987 325is - original California car - 58k miles - $10500

    This is an original California car with 58,000 original miles.

    Currently residing in a climate controlled garage in MA, bought her about two years ago. In excellent condition, have owned many old BMW's and this is the cleanest one I've seen. Zero rust, sport seats like new.

    New tires (less than 600 miles ago), timing belt, and thermostat, all installed by professional mechanic and just as preventative maintenance. The rest of the car is original.

    Currently own two e30's, this one is too nice to mess with, the other one is the project car. I'm not very savvy with computers, or making a fancy profile for this car, but I'd be happy to answer any questions about the car and/or post more pictures.

    Can be seen by potential buyer and mechanic by appointment, just call 617-584-7690.
    Asking $10500, open to reasonable offers.

    Pardon me while I pick my jaw up off the floor. Any interest in trades (clean & sorted '91 S50 sedan)?

      Only if you have a half completed cobra or a complete mid year stingray in need of a restoration

        Having seen and driven this car, I can attest to it being worth the money. It has all original paint and drives extremely tight. However, when I saw it there were some significant flaws that, if fixed, would make this close to a 15k car.


        AC not currently blowing cold (correct me if it's been fixed).

        The floor pan under one of the seats was badly scraped, probably in shipment from the west coast.

        A few dings, easily fixed by PDR.

        Wheels need repainting. Too much acid wheel cleaner.

        Needs new antenna grommet.

        Driver's side seat has a small cut in the bottom of the seat.

        That's all I can remember to nit pick.



        The underside of this car is super-clean, not a speck of rust anywhere. Good luck to the seller and new owner. If I didn't have such a nice E30, I'd buy this one.

          I have attached pictures of the issues Dana R brought up, not trying to hide anything with this car, she's solid and clean.

          The seat came like that from California, it has been correctly patched, will not rip more.

          Like he said, not a speck of rust, just some minor issues that come up with a 25 year old car.

          I'll try to keep up with questions/picture requests as they come.

                Could you address the AC problem? I'm assuming if a charge was all that's needed it would have been done.
                Thank you.

                    The A/C system has a full charge of R-12 according to a set of gauges.

                    There is no power from the dad switch to the Lo pressure switch, I have not gotten involved any further than that because it would take some time to trace.

                    If you jump the lo pressure switch, the compressor and the cooling fan come on and it blows cold.
