    88is 5spd 2-door

    Ok I have not got to drive my baby much in the last 3 years maybe 2k miles, I am never home in the summer and just dont get to enjoy it. The little woman needs something better to drive than what she has. It deserves to be enjoyed and I can always buy another one in the future.


    Bronzit 1988 325is 5speed w/182,xxx, sitting on a H&R cup kit, and vintage MSW/route OZ 15x7.5 wheels wrapped in 225/50/15 BFG G-force sports w/7k miles on them
    summer of 07 got moved from MI to MT drove a bit around here totaling 3k miles on the year

    Summer 06 finish the respray from bare metal (all PPG products used no short cuts) and put back all the way together in DEC of 06. There was so much little stuff that I did while it was apart painting trim fixing this and that Also got a new timing belt water pump, coolant hoses, belts and Fresh vinyl on the sport seats and some other little shit I dont remember, No miles driven in 06

    Summer of 05, drove a few miles driven then took it apart for preparing for respray striped to bare metal, rust free patch panel for the license plate lights was put in and all rust repaired new rust free door shells the works. Diving boards tucked and the clear coat stripped off an bumpers polished (they need it again kinda spotty atm).

    Summer 04 acquired the car drove about 4k miles. all this in the fall and winter, Cup Kit, all Bushings IE urethane (green Rear SFB) new front control arms and ball joints, tree house CAB's, front upper strut bearings, IE rear shock mounts and reinforcement plates, all 6 SS break lines, ATE power slot front rotors, brembo blanks out back and mintex red box pads all round, ATE supper blue fluid, new cap rotor plugs an wires, new AFM, T-stat OBC back lights, valve adjustment, and a whole lot more stuff I know I am forgetting. has an older alpine Head unit in it.

    The bad
    has 2 assembly chips on it that I have not had time to get fixed and a little paint boil on the hood (who knows why it didnt take) and a couple if small rock chips, I have a quart of PPG mixed in the same batch as the car to fix with. Was painted in a barn by a friend of mine who is a pro so it has some little shit in it. Needs a Cut an polish(to be 100% but looks great as is), 1 fog light took a rock but still works but is lose in the valance needs the antenna reinstalled, low beam lens on pass side is cracked (elipisoids) needs a lip and new muffler (was gonna swap an s52 and do exhaust then) works fine looks like shit. Needs the rear defroster hooked back up.











    am looking for about 3700, but am open to offers (that are reasonable)

    Car is located in central IA

                  I'd be all over it but, its not in my price range!! Not saying the car ain't worth it, people just don't have that kinda money I guess.
