WTB: early model e30 (auto 325e coupe preffered)

[vtechnik]

Hi there,

I'm on the hunt for a certain e30, the closer we get to this spec the happier I'll be:

- auto (manual acceptable, not looking to pay too much though)
- original red car (must be original paint / red almost required)
- 325/e/es (318i not preferred, 325is acceptable, again not looking to break the bank)
- coupe (required)
- pearlbeige (preferred)
- running (strongly preferred)
- clean (borderline required)

I'm located in WA state, willing to roadtrip the car if its capable.

price range < $4500

If you have something similar to that spec let me know! Thanks.

October 27, 2021 Update – The high bid of $2,500 did not meet the seller’s reserve price of $5,000 on this 1986 BMW 325es we offered in a reserve style auction on behalf of the private seller. As a result, we've moved the car to our "Rides Still Available" page where you can either pay the seller's reserve or make a counter bid.

The second owner dating back to 1988 is currently offering his E30 BMW. The car is currently located in Sacramento, California and it just passed its annual SMOG Certification last week.
