    FS: Super Clean Laguna Green 1991 Convertible 318i with 113K original miles in NorCal

    €€€€€€€ SOLD €€€€€€€
    I would like to sell my clean titled 1991 Laguna Green 318iC with 113K original miles that is in beautiful condition. I purchased this car 3 years ago with 95K miles and it has been my reliable daily driver (mostly driving to work 3 miles round trip) with occasional trips to Southern California to visit my folks. The way I understand the history of the car is that while it has been in zero accidents during my ownership, the original owner (an older lady) hit the left bumper against a traffic post in 1994 which resulted in the left fender having being replaced by the factory with a DOT-R unit. All other panels are original.

    I am a physician by trade and felt proud of parking my cabriolet next to the other fancy vehicles belonging to my colleagues mainly because I thought it looked just as good if not better than theirs. I am also a proud owner of a genuine M Tech II, 1989 M3, and a 1998 M3 and unfortunately I simply can't afford to negotiate safekeeping four cars in the city of San Francisco so the 318iC will have to leave the family. I also have to mention that these cars are a hobby of mine that I come to after hectic weeks at the hospital and I enjoy working on them. For this reason, I hardly have any repair receipts from mechanic shops but I have tons of receipts for parts that I have purchased new and replaced myself. The was registered today and therefore the registration is good for another whole year ( a 98 dollar value, that's how much it cost me to register it)

    With that said, here is a list of preventative maintenance performed on my 318iC:
    -Oil changes were regular and OEM oil filter was solely used
    -Car doesn't leak a drop of oil unless parked on a steep hill in San Francisco
    -New slotted rotors and pads, break fluids replaced at 101K
    -New BMW OEM Crank Position Sensor replaced at 110K
    -The mess under the intake modification at 110K
    -New Fuel pump and filter at 110K
    -New Thermostat, water pump, cooling system refresh at 100K
    -AC converted to R134a at 95K, new evaporator, drier tank, etc.
    -New NKG spark plugs at 110K
    -New Air filter at 110K
    -New SI batteries replaced 3 months ago along with odometer gears
    -New Front KYB shocks replaced
    -New manual top installed 6 month ago (an intoxicated idiot, for lack of a better word, thought it was a fun idea to sketch his name on my brand new rear window at a Giants game at AT&T Park. His ass was accordingly kicked into shape but his name remains on the window. A simple polish will remove this but alas my busy schedule has prevented me from doing this.)
    -Differential replaced with an open 3.73 medium case with confirmed 67K miles on it at 100K due to a small leak in the original unit)
    -Rear shock mounts replaced at 112K with OEM BMW units
    -The front worn seats were replaced with clean vinyl sport seats with a very minor imperfection on the top of the driver left top bolster, consult the pictures for a better understanding. The door cards were also replaced to match the color.

    My asking price for this car is SOLD. I can be persuaded to lean a little this way or that way if you work with me and don't insult me with a low offer or make a big deal out of a ding here or a scratch there. Furthermore, I'm in no rush to sell this car. I have paid its registration and it sits in an indoor garage at work so it's safe and sound. Here is a link to some photos I snapped three days ago:



    I would also appreciate it if you keep any negative comments you may have to yourself. Positive comments are certainly appreciated and encouraged.

          Really pretty little vert! Price is reasonable, as well, unlike a few I've seen on here recently. I bet this moves quickly. GLWS!

            Thank you brother. A few local interested folks are dropping by tonight to check it out. We'll keep y'all posted as to the outcome.
