SOLD.
$5500 obo
1990 325i, has most of the 'is' extras, clean but no show car, beastly daily driver.
Will be at the e30 picnic this weekend.
As far as stats on the car, it's got ~185,000 miles, had a top end rebuild about 50,000 miles ago. I have compression numbers on the engine (m20) from 1 1/2 years ago and they are all in spec 173-178. The top end was rebuilt with 172 cam, stiffer springs, rockers, etc and it doesn't leak or burn a drop of oil and is the healthiest, strongest running m20 i've driven. Miller MAF, KAmotors intake, idles, revs flawlessly. H+R sport springs, bilstein sport shocks/struts all with ~50,000. Bav auto drilled and slotted front rotors, UUC short shifter, Supersprint SS catback exhaust, BMP aluminum strut bar, other stuff I could tell you about. Alternator, fuel filter, cap, rotor, ignition wires, subframe bushings, shock mounts, motor mounts, tranny mounts, etc. all replaced. Pretty mint BBS RZ378 15" wheels with pretty fresh tires (no spacers, no rings, direct fit). Euro smiley smoked headlights with 55W HID bulbs. If you are into stereos it's got a great stereo with an ipod/iphone adapter integrated very slickly. The interior is on par or ahead of the exterior, sport seats recovered in black vinyl (not a top dollar recovering but they look very good and will for a while). Euro clock, husco armrest, center console cupholders, maplight rearview. Cruise control, windows, sunroof, wipers, mirrors, everything works.
Bad things are fog lights don't work (need new housings and bulbs), paint is pretty good but flaws show up in person that you can't see in the pictures including minor dents you can't see, I don't have receipts for any of the work done above but you can look the car over and see it's all there. AC doesn't pack much punch, haven't had it looked at to see what the problem is, heat blows hot. Like I said, no garage queen but a great driver, I've had 5 e30s all with stock engines and this one is the most predictable, responsive, and beastly driver of them all.
The car does have a bit of rust at the bottom of the battery tray which connects over to the right rear valence. There is a small hole in the right rear valence where I scrubbed out a rusted spot and primed it, you can see it in the pics if you look closely. Those are the only rust spots, a local body shop was going to cut it out and weld in sheet metal for $200 at some point but I haven't had it done yet. I looked over the car very closely before I bought it and there was absolutely no structural rust and the body is otherwise clean, nothing at all on the strut towers, rockers, doors, or anything like that. No collisions, original paint and all body panels as far as I know. I ran a carfax on the vin before I bought it and nothing came up but in full disclosure I have never looked to verify that all of the body panels match.
Only selling because since the birth of my son 9 months ago I've had my eye out for a sweet 4 door and recently bought a cherry '87 535is.
$5500 obo (put that in there 3 times cause I hate for sale ads when I have to look for the price)
For the right price will come with a fresh crack-free dash (to get rid of the ugly pod) and a set of studded snow tires on bottlecaps.
Onto pics, will get more up later this week:
The replacement with one of my other toys:
$5500 obo, hope to see you at the picnic.
