    1988 s52 Touring, 122km/76k m

    Car was originally built by a friend of mine and the owner of a BMW specific parts business after he drove it with the stock drivetrain for several years. I since purchased it in the spring of this year with the intent of keeping it long term as it's my ideal e30, but priorities are shifting and I need to purchase my first home.

    Car is sitting at 122k original km's and will continue to rise on days I cannot ride to work or until it hibernates for the winter in the coming weeks. Car was resprayed DS 2 years ago while receiving the swap.

    Drivetrain

    - s52b32 swap w/ rebuilt head
    - z3m transmission, under 70k with short shift kit
    - 3.25 lsd
    - stage 1 dr.vanos
    - obd 1 swap
    - TRM chip
    - Racing Dynamics mid-pipe with magnaflow muffler
    - The car made 224whp

    Steering and Suspension

    - Ground control coilovers and camber plates, 440/600 spring rates
    - z3m steering rack
    - 17x8.5 Azec type C's
    - BF goodrich G-force sports, 215/40/17
    - Drilled rotors of a proper brand who's name escapes me, SS lines

    Interior

    - Reupholstered seats f&r in fathom grey faux synthetic suede
    - Black headliner
    - Alacantera sparco wheel with qr nrg hub
    - map light mirror

    Stereo

    - Alpine IDA-X305 headunit
    - Alpine MRP-F300 4-channel amp
    - Orion 2-way components with door tweeter's
    - Hertz ES250 10" subwoofer
    - Custom-for-me ported lukebox

    Car has one surface rust spot on the rear hatch which are notorious for rusting out, it's been por-15'd and is not showing and signs of spreading until I have the chance to treat it 100%. Has one notable ding on the passenger side C-pillar. Other than that the car is free from stories, quirks and issues. It's sorted swap which runs as reliably as any untouched e36 m3.

    $16,500, willing to work with any buyers near or far to make the purchase possible. NO TRADES. It's not exactly a pain to own this car, so I don't mind spending more time with her until the right buyer comes along

          Two years in the future, and this touring would be sold immediately.
