Anyone here have $45,000???

This thing is immaculate!







No blue cloth...









I realize there are probably about 10 threads about this being made at the moment...

I just don't believe it. The carfax looks legit, although that gap from 1995 to 2001 makes me wonder. I would need more info to convince me.

It looks clean but i would never cough up 45k for a plain stock vert! well its not like i have 45k laying around anyway :(

What bothers me is this line...

This gorgeous 325i convertible is in mint condition impeccably restored with all original or BMW genuine parts.

I'm guessing the seller just used the word restored when in actuality they just replaced belts and hoses etc because I don't know why a virtually brand new car would need to be restored.

only 227 miles and a tool missing?why would you need to use the window crank adapter tool within 227 miles

I believe that some sort of "E30 tool gnome" has taken it along with the blue cloth

I don't think that tool came on late models. pretty sure it doesn't work on the late regulators.

that does make sense ive only seen them a couple times in pics

[e30rapidic]

why have a car like that and never drive it? Not like its a Ferrari 250 GTO or 427 Cobra?!

that tool only came in e28's but the kit box itself is for both models.

So either this or a 1000 mile M3..

[gtdragon980]

So this is what a brand new e30 looked like...

You can always buy less than 100k well-conditioned E30 vert for about 5k...saving yourself 40k...more than enough to buy a BMW 128.

Help a new guy out here: How is this a 1993 model?
