    1993 E30 325iC Cabrio For Sale

    93 325iC Cabrio/Convertible for sale. Priced now at $7500 OBO. I'll throw in a 3.73 Limited Slip if the offer is reasonable. Fly in to Monterey and drive it home. HellRot Red with a black cloth top, 5 speed manual with 166,000 miles. The engine and suspension were totally rebuilt at 133,000 miles: Eibach Strut Brace, Bilstein HDs, Turner Sways and springs, Korman Stage 2 ported and polished cylinder head, 282/272 M20 Schrick cam, Korman M20 strengthened rocker arms, Titanium valve spring retainers, new Rocker Arm shaft, Korman HP valve Springs. Intake and exhaust manifold extrude-honed by Korman and port-matched to the head, Korman big throttle body and Korman custom chip, new clutch & pressure plate with a lightened aluminum flywheel and Korman shift linkage. Cost of this work was $8800! In May 2002 a new BMW OEM cloth convertible top was installed by BMW Austin, ($5800). December 2003 the car was repainted original color by Continental Auto Group ($4600). New brakes with rotors in June, 2004, and a transmission rebuild by Phoenix Transmissions in November, 2005. The car has a Supersprint Stainless exhaust and 15X7 BMW/BBS Basketweaves with Toyo T1R 225/50X15 tires. It's a great runner: pristine and competent. Pictures available via E-Mail. Last E30 series made, and I know I'll regret selling it.. Please ask questions but don't flame me on price, etc. PM me your E-mail address for pictures. Thanks much

    Sounds like avery nice vert , although I've never heard of Helrot being available on anything short of an E36 M3 .

    Auto or manual ?

    Also some pics would really do your sale some justice .

        I'd be really happy to e-mail pics to someone who'd post them here. If the Cabrio sells I'll even PayPal a commission.

                      Car's in Santa Fe, New Mexico now and registered, titled, and plated there. Garaged for the last 11 years at least and in the garage right now as my forlorn 87 325iS sits under a pile of snow. If it doesn't sell by February 23 it'll be in Monterey, California. Moving is one of the reasons I'm selling.

                          Oh heck no. The 325iS was a Roadfly California find: excellent shape, modded engine and suspension, new BMW interior. It'll be my track and everyday car until I can afford an E46 M3, then I'll probably E30Spec race it. I'm willing to consider offers, but I'm not going to sell this at a ridiculous low-ball amount. Also willing to consider interesting trades: an old Norton Commander, R65 Beemer, a 5 speed manual Toyota 4runner with the 3.4 V6, F40 Landcruiser, etc.

                            Car's on a transport truck on the way to Monterey, California at this time. Still available for sale. Thanks for all the questions. Willing to negotiate.

                              I'll be in Monterey late next week joining the Cabrio so I can negotiate sales from there. I'll be working as a Sales Consultant for the BMW dealer: that'll be fun. This car's a quick & competent screamer with a touch of class. Offers considered. The drivetrain is so competent in this car I'm almost tempted to swap it into my 87....
