1989 BMW 320i Touring -$7000 Firm Located in Austin TX
237,000 KILOMETERS (which is 140,000 miles)
All European/German spec car. Left Hand Drive
M20 6 Cyl engine (strong)
5 Speed Manual (shifts great, no grinding, performs as it should)
Diamond Schwarz (Metallic Black)
Black Interior/Grey Carpet
Perfect Dash
Crank Sunroof
Factory AC delete
Power Front windows, Crank rear (Factory spec)
Brand new headliner, all Black
Sport, 3 spoke steering wheel (Sunburned top)
Lowered on Eibach Springs
AC Schnitzer single wiper conversion
AC Schnitzer Header (sounds very nice)
Aftermarket in dash CD headunit. Aux output works with IPhone
Leather M Shift knob
Aftermarket white face gauges with chrome rings
Recaro D&W seats. Best I can tell is they are the Speed seat with tiny debossed D&W logo. Good condition except the drives bolster is sort of "squished". Not ripped, but the foam has collapsed some. (I can swap in very nice condition stock seats with Grey cloth tops if the buyer wants)
K&N Air filer
Strut tower brace
Wheel options: 14" Bottlecaps AND 15" Euroweaves (Euro only? Like the e30 M3 wheels, but 4 lug) Bottlecaps have 4 good matching tires, and matching spare. Euroweaves have 4 mismatched tires, one with a very slow leak. Hence the car is on 14"s now.
Included but not installed:
Match Painted Eyelids
All Import paperwork provided, Although it has already been registered and titled in 2 US states. Current inspection and Registration in Texas. Original German Title with previous owners modifications listed. Some service paperwork from Germany, but all in German. Service by me is Belts/ Oil changes/Coolant
The Bad:
The car does have some rust, but nothing that stopped me from buying it. Has rolled fenders, so some rust in those. Behind the rear wheels in the lower valence. a little on the tailgate (bubbles), Bubbles on sun roof. Worst spot is under the rear window (see pics). I say worst because it is the most visible and I assume the biggest hassle to fix. As far as I know its all sheet metal, not structural.
Steering wheel is Sunburned on top with 2 tears. I have a German Aftermarket wheel if interested (no hub though)
Driver Seat bolster is worn
Rear Wiper in-op. Never really investigated.
Wiper fluid squirters function, but are weak. Probably clogged nozzles, never investigated.
Blower fan is noisy unless its at full blast (4)
Drivers door lock does not work with the key, but whole car functions with the key fob, so not a big deal during daily use.
Not really deserving of the Bad category, but the paint looks nice in pics but there are dings and scrapes for sure. Roof is pretty bad, scratch wise. Strange way to be worn. Will try to capture in pics.
This was a dream car for me and the only reason I am selling is I found an AC installed car, and bought that one also. No need for 2 Tourings right now. Of the two this one handles better and feels stronger, engine wise. Price is LESS than what I paid for it, and I have improved the car since I got it. You can find RHD automatics for less and Every LHD Manual will fetch more. I think its a fair price to move it on to the next enthusiast. Not looking for trades, but will hear you out. Porsches, Classic Minis, or Datsuns will interest me most.
