Fantastic car, but you are not going to get that much for an automatic, especially with top down season being pretty much over.

Well, with all the beautiful convertible weather we're having here in Chicago right now, someone local might be much more inclined to drop a pretty penny on such a clean BMW! GLWS!

Single owner with service history and as clean as it is. This thing will sell just fine. GLWS. looks like one of the last clean original cars.

BMWCCA.org would be more in the market for a type of car like this, good luck OP!

[Ether-D]

Yeah man, a one owner e30 cabby is certainly worth that. If you don't sell it this fall, you'll certainly sell it in the spring. Glws.

[jdbimmer]

Only thing wrong is the gearbox.

[8ball]

ain't that the truth and with this one it would be a hard decision to tamper with the originality by swapping it IMO.

[heatmakerz]

Very clean. It must have lived its life in the garage because I see none of that Chicago rust on it. Where exactly are you located in Chicago? From the pics I am guessing one of the Chicagoland suburbs?

[bradnic]

Phillip drop me a PM - I'm in Wheaton and have a neighbor that's expressed strong interest in a clean E30 vert. Haven't talked to them about your car yet though.

[bradnic]

All the too bad it's an auto comments - if you were seriously interested you wouldn't care. A 5 speed swap is cake and definitely reversible in a car like this.

OP here's the VIN feature listing for your car. Factory LSD (probably a 4.10 with that auto), Feb 90 build date.

Gorgeous! GLWS!

Very clean! But honestly being automatic and the diving board bumpers is pretty high in price!

I get all those comments, but it is what it is: a really great example from an original owner who has 100% of the car's history and no rust. Car is bulletproof.

More than willing to consider any informed offers; as mentioned before, I'm happy to ascribe values to every pro and con for what we would feel is the most accurate deal.

This is a very awesome car, a far safer opportunity than any of the cars where you arent quite sure what the odo ever read, or what the history really is. You get what you pay for.
