Also auto and salvage title... http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/cto/4957071131.html

Selling my 1990 BMW E30 Sedan because being a full time student does not particularly lend itself to owning a project car for transportation. Unfortunately for me I purchased this car from someone who did not know what they were doing with their modifications, so I'm going to be as upfront as possible in order to deter any unmotivated buyers. I absolutely love driving this car even in this semi-compromised state, which can only attest to it's future potential. If you'd like to contact me, please shoot me a text and not call, it will be easier for me to get to you, my number is in the reply section.

Here's what needs to be fixed:
- Springs
- Rear Brake Pads
- Alignment
- Inside Driver's Door Handle (still works but is broken)
- Rear Right Tire is having problems staying on the wheel so the full sized spare is currently on.
- Needs New Tires
- Wheels are not the correct size so they would need to be replaced (on the upside they do retail for about 600$ each new so you could sell those)
- Air Conditioning
- Front Fender was hit while parked needs to be replaced
- Odometer (previous owner stated that it stopped around 176,000, I estimate it should be around 180,000 currently)
- Front Passenger Window
- Speedometer
- Other Minor cosmetic flaws

The good:
- The interior is very clean and in good shape
- OEM BMW System still works well and plays loud
- Newer Kenwood Unit with CD player Radio and Aux Cord (needs to be hooked up to the back of the unit)
- Engine still pulls hard and sounds good
- Manual Moonroof that opens or tilts
- Unique maroon color
- New front control arms and mounts just replaced
- New Oil Pan

1987 BMW 325is - E30 Delphin Grey - Price Drop - $8500

http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/cto/4960837892.html

PRICE DROP

1987 BMW 325is

I am regrettably selling my 1987 325is, which I have owned for 2 years. I purchased this car in beautiful cosmetic condition but it needed some general maintenance and updates to bushings, suspension, tires etc. I purchased this car specifically because it has the cleanest and most original interior I have ever seen in an E30. The paint is in good condition, it's not show quality but an older repaint. The car runs awesome and I wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere on a road trip. Below is a list of all I have done to the car since I purchased it. Everything was done less than 500 miles ago.

- Ground Control Coilovers: 650 front 450 rear. - $1900 + install
- Replaced all bushings in the front end with Polyurethane
- All 4 wheel bearings
- Front control arms and bushings
- PS Delete
- BMW style 5's off of an e38 740i
- Falken tires
- 5 lug conversion adapters
- Oil and all fluids changed
- The previous owner rebuilt the top end about 20k miles ago so it runs amazing.
- 100% crack free dash!
- Rare Center console with cup holders


Things that don't work:
- The Radio doesn't work at the moment, this is common in E30's and can be easily replace for $100
- Odometer is pretty intermittent. I replaced the odo gears and it worked for about 6 months then randomly stopped again. The car shows an indicated 138,500 miles, it's probably more like 145,000.
- That's about all I can think of right now, because it runs fantastic.

If you would like to see it in person, feel free to call/text or email and we can set something up.

http://losangeles.craigslist.org/wst/cto/4977297892.html

NOT A TYPO!!!
I am selling my 1987 325IS 5 speed Red/Black all org. 100% clean and clear carfax no acc.
Need to sell some of my cars before my wife kills me.
This is a 100% stock 325IS, the market is only going to go up
with these cars. But I have no room to store it anymore.
My lost your gain!

1987 BMW 325is, Original Zinnoberrot Red Paint with Black Leather Sport Interior, 5 Speed, 84k miles, 3 owners, all original and completely unmodified. Simply awesome.



The black leather interior is absolutely perfect. The BMW sport seats, which generally wear, are remarkable. Side bolsters are near perfect, no scuffs and no split seams. The carpet is like new and there are new black BMW floor mats with red binding. Headliner is original and like new, as is the dash, switchgear, radio and interior plastic. Complete tool kit under the trunk lid, tire jack, wheel chock, lug wrench and original spare mounted on BBS wheel remain in the spare tire well.



The car has always been well-maintained and documented. All books and records are available. The presentation under the hood is as nice as the rest of the car. All decals, under hood pad and factory cosmoline remain intact.



Great color combination and amazing original condition make this 325is special.

With a curb weight of 2,800lbs, 168hp and 164lbs of torque, the 325is is agile and quick, shifting through a Getrag 260 5 speed. These have always been super fun to drive and this particular car is like the day it drove out of the showroom.

Price will be negotiated before shown.
Yes it is that good!
I have about 40 plus picture I can send of every angle

Please e-mail for more info due to busy work schedule.
14,988 OBO
