This is my 1991 318is briliantrot
275,xxx but it looks like a third of that.
I bought this about a month ago from the original owner and I have a stack of paper work all the way from new. It was garaged in winters for most of it's life but lately it had been his winter car for 2 or 3 years. I wanted this to be my daily driver for years to come but I have too many cars and there's been very little interest on the others as of yet so if I can get what I need out of this I'll let it go, if not I'll keep it as planned.
The car is all original, including the paint, minus the stereo. Sometime in it's life it had new high end alpine speakers installed including a 12" sub with amp.
The previous owner put in a new clutch, drive shaft bearing, thermostat, and water pump not long ago.
Also, the exhaust was in pieces when I bought it. it has been re done with stainless pipe and new high flow resonator and Cherry Bomb muffler, I was skeptical at first but it's STOCK quiet and flows and runs much better and also saved probably about 50lbs.
It's on nice Michelin snow and ice tires.
Has brand new brakes. Drilled and slotted rotors with ceramic pads all the way around.
Very, very little rust some tiny spots which are easily cleaned up.
Runs and drives wonderfully.
Issues:
Shifter is a little sloppy, it needs some bushings.
Has a vacuum leak causing it to idle high, it could use the "mess under the intake" fix.
The front bumper has been tapped in a parking lot at sometime and the plastic is cracked and some clips are broken, the euro plate kind of keeps it together as would a normal US plate.
There's a small dent beneath the rear license plate.
The rear valance has some damage, it was bent and torn causing some rust, but would be an easy fix for someone with body work experience.
Glovebox handle is broken and cigarette lighter is missing.
Tachometer sticks a bit.
I'll say $2,550







Sorry, it was a bit too dark out when I took the photos. If anyone is seriously interested I can take more.
