ebay auction starting at 7:00pm 6/25 west coast time auction number: 280363193032
Up for sale is my E30 Touring. I have recently completed the project and have decided to move on from the car world for a bit and into other things...
The car started as a 1991 318i but as you will see has been completely transformed...
Links are as follows:

The specs of the car:
Exterior:
- Genuine Mtech II bodykit used sides/door pods New Old Stock Front and rear with all new mounting hardware all around.
- New (used) doors, new fenders Euro Style OE, all rust removed from places it was started to permeate, new sunroof panel (used)
- New BMW windshield (not aftermarket)
- New fogs, new turn signals (clear), all red tails.
- GENUINE 16" Alpina Wheels
Interior:
- CD43 Radio Upgrade with working RDS
- Mtech II (new) Steering wheel
- One piece Mtech Lighted shift knob/boot (new)
- Custom Interior - OE Sport Seats recovered in 'euro' OE vinyl - I chose vinyl A. I like the perforated look and B. It wears FAR better - the perforated is NLA as I got the last 10 yards - no updated pics on this yet the one interior pic you'll see is a mixture of the old and new. I'll try to get another this weekend.
- All broken/worn pieces replaced - rear carpet, compartments, boot/dog cover, etc - new when I could or used from the UK and Germany
Cluster:
- Originally a german car the cluster was in KM. I found a used US cluster that was 250 mi MORE than the km one (when converted to Mi) I drove the car around with tools until the clusters matched and then swapped in the US cluster (photo documented) so it reads actual chasis mileage! Currently at 152,000 miles
Suspension:
- New control arms and bushings
- New billy sports
- Bav custom springs rated for Touring - OK but a little too soft for my tastes - I'd like to do H+R and may work with Turner to make it happen.
- New upper mounts (F+R) and other miscellaneous HW pieces.
Drivetrain
- Non Vanos M50 - 68k when installed
- 11.5lb UUC flywheel with m3/m5 clutch kit
- Getrag 265 5 speed tranny
- 3.23 LSD from an M Roadster with 50k when installed
- TMS Underdrive pulleys (alt, WP, PS)
- TMS/Conforti custom chip for flywheel
- Z3 1.9 Short throw shifter
Exhaust
- Ansa sport exhaust
- Custom Magnaflow Cat and center pipe mounted to M50 manifolds
Misc.
- Wiper arms
- Painted trim
- Roundels
- Etc
Paperwork
- Current Mass Title - with Euro VIN #WBAAG71060ED83291
- Original German title
- Original service records
- All receipts for the build - I'm somewhere between $35k and $36k including the purchase of the car.
