    1987 BMW 325E Coupe
    143,XXX miles

    BODY:
    Repainted Zinnoberrot red in 2008, base coat + clear coat
    Late model plastic bumpers
    OE rear valance from late model car, fully boxed into body like they came from the factory.
    Euro bumper trim ( no side markers)
    All red tail lights professionally painted
    Smoked front turn signals
    U.S. Elipsoid headlights with HID kit and 10k bulbs
    Euro grilles
    Euro license plate filler
    IS front lip
    IS rear spoiler
    Black base/surround on mirrors, custom painted
    All black shadow line trim (Everything is powder coated except the rear windows)
    Smooth front valance
    Miro STP1 wheels, (16x7.5 in the front and 16x9 in the rear)

    The body and paint work on this car is amazing and near show quality. This is not a macco “Good from far, but far from good”, paint job. The closer you get to the car the more it comes to life. The amount of depth and gloss is crazy. The rear valance was very well done, even if you are underneath the car you would have a hard time telling its not original. I have about 300 pictures of all the body and paint work to show the level of quality of the work.

    DRIVETRAIN:
    M20B25 swapped from a 325I (All work done by Ryan G Motorworks)
    Ported head
    New oil pan gasket, timing belt, water pump, valve adjustment, and spark plugs
    325i oil cooler and lines
    Newer Sachs clutch and single mass flywheel
    Z3 shifter with new bushings
    Ireland Engineering ceramic coated headers
    Free flow exhaust
    Miller MAF conversion with adapter to factory air box
    K&N air filter
    19lb injectors
    Black painted valve cover and intake manifold


    SUSPENSION
    H&R race springs (New)
    Bilstein sport shocks (fronts are new)
    Mtech 15mm drop hats
    Cabrio front 21mm sway bar
    Ireland Engineering 19mm rear sway bar (not installed)
    Ireland Engineering Billet rear sway bar mounts
    Rear trailing arm tabs reinforced
    Mason Engineering rear strut bar
    UUC adjustable camber plates
    New OE sub frame and trailing arm bushings
    3.73 LSD in great shape, new rear cover and gasket
    Stainless steel brake lines
    25mm 750i master cylinder
    89 325i brake booster
    New front control arms
    New M3 offset control arm bushings
    New front sway bar links
    New tie rods and ball joints
    Brand new Falken Azenis tires


    INTERIOR:
    Crack free dash
    Black vinyl sport seats (clean)
    The rest of the interior is hounds tooth
    Pioneer CD player (Ipod ready)
    Upgraded speakers
    Mildly tinted windows
    Fully functioning 6 button OBC
    AC has been retrofitted to R134
    Manual sunroof

    The car is mechanically very solid and needs nothing. It drives and handles like an absolute dream. It recently won first place at a local car show
