I have a 94 E36 convertible with hardtop and bunch of bolt-on mods. Let me know if you're interested in more info/pics. Mechanic-owned and cared for. Soft-top is less than 2 years old. I am the second owner of the hardtop and 3rd owner of the car.
Mods:
Cosmetic: Smoked tails, corners, & markers | HID Ellipsoids | HID Fogs | Style 68s | 20mm H&R Spacers | Trunk Lip | Hardtop | M-Side Molding | Matched Rockers & Bumpers | M-Tech Steering Wheel
Performance: Slotted & Drilled Rotors | Braided Brake Lines | aFe Intake | Magnaflow Cats | Rogue cat-back | Turner Chip | UUC Underdrive Pullies | UUC Front & Rear Swaybars | UUC/SACHS Stage 3 Suspension | AA Front Strut Bar | Nitto Invos | 3.23lsd
PROS:
Mechanically the car runs flawlessly
Synthetic oil changes every 3k-4k miles with 10-w30 or 0-w40
Never beat on
Constantly cleaned and inspected
New soft top, rear window, headliner, and hardtop
TONS of preventative maintenance
-New Waterpump with metal impeller
-New Hoses
-New Thermostat
-Aluminum T-Stat cover
-New Radiator
-Rebuild Fuel injectors
-New Intake Manifold Gaskets
-Cleaned IACV and Throttle body every 6 months
-New IACV Hoses
-Rebuild VANOS unit with new seals and O-Rings
-New Valvecover Gasket
Alarm & Remote start installed (2-Way Viper Responder) And yes, this remote start is legal even though this is a manual car. I can go into more detail if you'd like.
Upgraded (E46) Front and Rear shock mounts with Z3 reinforcement plates on the rears.
CONS:
Paint could use a refresh
Typical dings
Sounds like a pulley or belt tensioner will need replacing soon, no adverse affects yet. (I've driven many E36s in the past that sounded very very bad and they were more than fine, I'm just nuts with wanted everything running in top shape).
Typical driver seat wear
That's about it really. If you'd like to see the car in person please don't hesitate to contact me.
PM me for email address.
Pics below: Many more available upon request.
Looking to get into a newer car early next year or sooner if the offer is right.
Over $5k was put into fixing up the car to look the way it does today with about 2/3 of it being towards preventative maintenance, none towards labor since it was all done by myself and my father. I know I'm not getting that money back, but just so the next owner knows that he/she really doesn't have much to do upon purchasing this car. It's basically a turn-key car, ready to go.
What do you guys think I could get for it?
