    1992 Calypso 318iC V8+6SPD W/Hardtop $old

    Sold

    As far as work needed,
    -Needs a front lip spoiler
    -Needs tires
    -The interior needs patch work. Not terrible but typical for a stock cabrio
    -Needs a muffler for the exhaust to be complete
    -Soft top is nice with new rear window but some of the corner seams have come loose.
    -the front seal in the diff was installed half assed so it leaks
    -hardtop needs headliner and new canvas. I was going to wrap it but no point now since it's being sold
    -the plastic engine wire harness has typical cracks. I would recommend a replacement

    Cons,
    No AC. But hey, its a vert. I do have the perfectly working r134 compressor thats oiled up
    Few dings from people opening their doors on my car. Paintless dent repair if you're picky.
    Water spots on the hood and trunk
    Tie rods haven't been changed in idk how long.


    Pros
    -M60B40 V8 With everything electrical replaced with new.. This includes x4 $80 knock sensors and the MAF
    -Perfectly shifting Getrag 420
    -Brand new driveshaft by driveshaft king of dallas $550 well spent
    -Rebuilt2.93 LSD with perfect lockup (super fun!)
    -Wilwood Boosterless brake setup with 5/8 masters ($1,000 well spent)
    -reinforced front subframe and mounts
    -treehouse control arm bushings/mounts
    -comes with bends and pipe to finish exhaust. You just need a muffler.


    I'll get some pics together and some videos. MAybe a burnout or two but nohing that'll steer away potentials ;)

    Please, if you're serious then reach me. If not then keep moving along. Pic requests are fine

























    New photos


    ***someone asked if the clear was fading in this picture. No, this is just dust from mowing the yard. The bumpers are freshly painted and look great.

            Thank you. I know I'll regret this but, sadly-no-so-sadly my little girl comes first. :(
            Like I said, I may not sell her. (her name is Claire btw) I've got an SUV and a pickup but would rather something lower and safer with side airbags for daily use. E39's have that.

            Give me this week to get pictures and more details. As I'm driving it, I'll be going through things that I feel need replacing/fixing.

                I'm moving to Fort Worth in less than a month. Been looking for a swapped Coupe. I might have to consider getting cabrio though as this is a monster, and a monster of a deal. I'll come look at it if you don't get it sold by the end of the month!
                West German BMWs, they just don't make the same as they did before the wall fell.
                ^Case in point: Auto-Repair Technology. Everytime my car isn't starting or acting up I let it sit, sometimes for an hour, sometimes for days. But it eventually fixes itself.

                      Just added a few pics from the weekend to the first post. I Put about 200mi on her. Pretty impressed although I'll need some resonators.
                      I'm not yet sone with the harness adapter which is why you'll see blue tape. Final placement of the resivoirs willl be in the battery tray. Rear seat is still out but I'll probably do that this week.
                      I love this car. The head turns are fun. What's not fun is how it attracts lots of attention and occasionally she'll have to batle off a few cars. The important part is she wins. ;)

                        I just died a little inside. That is the sexiest car I've seen for a while. Just the though of a e30 with a v8 make me.... You know...
                        leave me some feedback if you've bought from me or I've bought your stuff!!

                            I'm greatful of the kind words! That was the goal, wolf in sheeps clothing.

                            I'm sorry I lack photo skills.

                              The price has been lowered. Would like to sell around February 2014
