FS: CA - '91 318is Alpine White II - clean + mods
Sadly up for sale is my '91 318is in rare and sought after Alpine White II. I own several e30's and need to thin the herd. This rare beauty was my daily driver, and has been tastefully modified, owned and maintained by adult enthusiasts. I have service records going back to when the car was new.
The chassis has about 343k (odometer is original and working) and the engine was replaced a few years ago with a refreshed M42. The transmission has been kept up and shifts/feels perfect. Don't be turned off by the high mileage on the chassis. This car will put e30's with half the mileage to shame with its condition and reliability.
The car does not leak or burn anything. Engine is clean enough to eat off of. ;-)
