    What do you think?

    1987 325i Convertible 79k miles $7900



    Seems a little pricey to me but let me know what you think?

    It does seem high, I agree. I'd be curious how the seats look under those covers too.

      i would never pay that much. i'm also guessing that the interior is shot, hence the cheap seat covers

                ya know, there is a craigslist thread you could post this in?

                i would assume the seats are trashed under those cheap shitty covers.

                convertibles: '91-'93 are the facelift body style which is more desirable.

                87-90 is the early style. unless you are going to make an m3 cabrio, you are probably better off with the later body.

                it still has value. the paint looks great. there are some dents in the hood. he is smoking crack with his price. if the seats are nice under the covers, i would appraise the car at around 4900.00 +/- if the seats are bad, maybe 3200.00 at the most.

                        I agree with cab and I have a 87 e. It has all sorts of odd bull shit but the TPS is the same for a M3 which is the only good about it

                          WHOA now.

                          Can't comment on the harness, but my 153 DME feels better than the 173 and 412 I swapped in. The cooling systems don't work any better or worse, just differently. The oil cooler is also identically sized and located, just with different brackets. I'm not even starting bumper talk because it's ridiculous.


                          I think those things make the 87 special! ;D

                            The only way id go that high is if there were an s52 settled in there.

                              i have an 87 325 w/ euro bumpers. stuff can be fixed. but why get a 87 325i vert for the same price as you can get a nice looking 5+/91 vert?
                              also i hate the 153 DME and the lack of stop test.
