I need a Kershaw garage. I am getting soft for the AMGs. I'd better wait for an E55....

Ahem, you mean sharage!

I should probably mention that the ad for that C36 had changed in price from $3500 to $4000 in the short time it took to post it to r3v.

Because scam...

Foliage does not look like Orlando and the side marker lamps are clearly not USA. Maybe it is a scam.

Foliage does not look like Orlando and the side marker lamps are clearly not USA. Maybe it is a scam.

It might not be... but the foliage, no license plate, and email only contact all add to having to be highly skeptical. I especially am wary of email only contact. But as mentioned, it's probably worth an ask if interested in it, just be cautious.

Zen & Art 318is listed

Feeling like a lot of people are going to call Crack Pipe on me at $12K - which I feel is the ceiling for this car..

CL listing link

I'm the second owner of ~15 years. ~$16K+ invested for sake of health and optimum maintenance condition. ALL wear-items replaced. Drives like a dream and better-than-new ! Magical. Very fun. ~30mpg. Great daily.

NEW: Dunlop Tires, Optima Red-top Battery, Filters (fule/oil/air), Oil, Spark plugs, wiper blades, etc.

Suspension and drive-train fully refurbished.
Limited Slip Differential. SuperSprint Exhaust system. Full UUC Short-throw shift hardware.
Refurbished +1 size European-spec BBS Basketweave wheels. Very proper to the car.
Racing Dynamics side skirts.
Lowering springs w/ Bilstein sport shocks. (original springs included)
Sound system with Polk-Audio front components, 10" Boston Acoustics sub, and Kenwood amplification.
MOMO steering wheel (rare). (original airbag wheel included). MOMO pedals. MOMO floor mats.
The main dash/console panel is specific to a 1984-only, German-super-base 316i model, that does not incorporate a clock or "computer" .. (it's more-symmetrical and de-cluttered which is why I was attracted to it as a very specific part..) Original console panel included.
Coil-On-Plug conversion performed with new, OE-appropriate German Bremi coil packs.
Updated/superseded oil pump components, profile gasket, timing chain guides, timing chain tensioner, etc. parts installed.
Steering rack upgraded to a tighter-ratio e36 rack. Poly steering coupling. Welded-in/reinforced/powder-coated front subframe.. with new engine and transmission mounts. Very smooth with intuition-like steering and handling.
Rear sway bar updated to thicker e30/M3/convertible version.
OMG this car handles well !
Marc-D performance chip.
George Graves interior dimmer switch.
Sport seats/interior in great condition. All bolsters good/solid.
Map-light mirror upgrade.
Leather parking brake boot.
One year only car: Last-ish year of e30 run, with a 16-valve, 4 cylinder engine featuring: timing chain and header-style exhaust manifold from factory.
Fun fact: this 318is is equipped with a functioning cruise control system installed by myself using parts from other BMW cars. Cruise control was not an option on this model car from the factory.
Clean Carfax.. Clean title.
Rust free. Not driven winters. Lovingly cared-for..

Thoughts? It sounds sweet in the video. It was $25k 2 years ago. I wonder what a real B9 should sell for.

I don't know a ton about alpina e28's but that car is definitely not worth 42k. Seriously amazing car and that M30 is delightful. But not worth 42k.

Feels like this car has been on sale forever. It probably needs a bunch of things but I be damned if it doesn't look good with the m-tech 2 kit.
