Help Me Find My First Car (1990 325i Sterling Silver Coupe)

[Digitalwave]

Looking to track down and hopefully buy back my first car. Someday, at last. I lost track of it around 2008 after Josh K sold it. Last I heard it had become a track car.

It's a sterling silver 1990 325i coupe. It had some distinct mods at the time, like DTM style cup mirrors, that could be long gone.

VIN: WBAAA2318LEC51650

Any leads would be greatly appreciated!

It'd be so cool if you were to find it. Good luck man!

I just sent a screenshot of this post to a local guy here in socal who bought a sterling 325i a couple years ago. I doubt it's the same car, but you never know!

Like the duce said, I hope you can find it and get it back.

Outside of a carfax like service to start to narrow the search, I'm not sure what a Private Investigator would charge for a vehicle? I'd think it should be cheap because it takes maybe an hour of their time?
I'd think they could get into a database similar-esque to law enforcement to get closer to finding the current owner. Maybe I'm wrong though.

Looking on bummerforums it went to (///MDex) after Josh K.
He then listed it for sale: https://www.bimmerforums.com/forum/s...mp-Reliable-NC

There was a very intersted party wanting it here: https://www.bimmerforums.com/forum/m...1-B-m-double-u
Or perhaps it sold local to MDex guy.

Maybe start with a carfax to find where it was last registered, then start posting in any sort of local to that area forum/facebook/other?
