yes it is old, yes it is an eta, and yes it has db bumpers. But damn, it has every bell and whistle that i didnt think they even offered in the early ones, not to mention the condition. I could see it going for 5k plus. your thoughts?

[xwill112x]

not 5k plus, more like 3.5k tops

You can get much nicer car for 5K. Especially in CA.

Looks nice, but seeing that the reserve has yet to be met at $2850 it might be a bit steep. I bought my '84 eta in good condition for $1800 and I felt like I overpaid. I might go as high as $3000 for a pristene early eta but not more.
Also I'm not seing many bells and whistles that aren't almost always found on 84-85 etas, other than the ski-hole rear seat. Most early US-etas had power everything and were heavily optioned. The eta was the 'premium' 3-series at the time here (your only other option was the 318i).

^I was just gonna ask about said "bells and whistles"

its clean and original. I like it, especially the interior
it also looks like a great iS cylinder head swap + turbo candidate.
do that and update suspension and youll have a beast sleeper

my old 85e had: Lsd, OBC, and Sport leather seats.

i just wish mine looked half as good as that one...

I didnt think an 85 would have power everything, including sunroof and cruise. It is super clean though

[txtorquemade]

you guys can cripe all you want.....thats a nice eta and I would say around 3.5-4.0 range

[325ix]

thats nice but I don't think 5k nice

My 84 eta had everything, black leathers sport seats, 13 button obc, power everything, also came with cancer.
