    FS: '91 318iS, D/S, Slicktop, 5-lug, M20, Street/Track

    SOLD!

    '91 318iS Slicktop, Diamondschwarz, M20 Swapped, E30 M3 5-lug, Street/Track Car. Clean NC title in my name. About 140k miles on chassis, unknown miles on M20 2.5l block, 4 weekends on Bimmerhead Race head, 1 weekend on most consumables (brakes, fluids, radiator).

    I'm the second owner of this car and have owned it for over 8 years. Before I spend way too much time prepping the car and making a ridiculous for sale post, I figured I'd post it up "as is" and see if anybody wants to spring on it now.

    27 page build thread with thousands of photos: https://rb.gy/01hajq

    Full list of mods: https://www.risingxedge.com/e30-mod-list/

    The good: This is a well sorted and developed track car with some very nice and desirable parts on it. It was resprayed before I bought it and it's a very solid 5-10 footer even with the issues described below. E30 M3 5-lug and brakes, rare BMW Motorsport Group N coilovers that are fresh, 4.45 3-clutch LSD, new Bimmerheads Race head, Megasquirt standalone, carbon fiber parts, nice looking interior with 4 point roll bar, pretty looking partially shaved engine bay, the car made 175whp and 170wtq last time I dyno'd it. Entire build is documented in the link above.

    The bad: The passenger rear quarter panel and trunk lid have dents from backing it into a tire wall in 2020. I hammered them out and they are fine for a "race car" but you'd probably fix it if you cared about those sorts of things. The frame is straight and otherwise has never been in an accident. The harnesses are out of date but OK for HPDE and TT. The tune could use some more refinement regarding the idle; it doesn't catch well when the car is very hot due to the 8lb flywheel.

    It could use an oil change and new tires, but otherwise is track ready.

    Included at asking price is a comprehensive spare parts package, and extra set of wheels and tires (15x8" Sparco FF01 with Toyo RR tires), both the carbon fiber and original metal hood, the carbon fiber and original mirrors, and any relevant spare parts that I own that are specific to this car (I have a lot of parts).

    Does this mean you're on to E90s for good to get your racing fix?

    If so, end of an era (again?) kinda. Ever find out where your old silver e30 wound up? Be cool to see you get it back someday.

      Thanks. I'm not really sure if this is the end of an era or not. It is for this car, at least. I never pursued it that closely, but I would jump at the opportunity to own my first sterling silver car.

          Car is still available. All of the decals have been removed, the ballast taken out of the car, and the car has been cleaned up. I'll be posting new pictures this weekend.

            Do it. I think my old e30 is lost forever. Quietly hunting for its replacement.

              One of the best e30 builds of all time and one of my favorite e30s ever. This is an absolute steal for a car where everything on it was well planned and executed to a such high degree.

              Wishing best of luck on the sale!!
