    If you insure your car thru Hagerty, they track all the auction prices for you and they show the value trends based on car condition. For example:

    I havent really, but feel free to add them. I wont be tracking them on sale prices, but worth sharing cars here for people who might be in the market

The tell is usually manual sunroof and 6 button OBC, as all iS cars had power sunroof and 13 button OBC, among other things.

    That blue car above is a good example of a non-iS car being sold as a true iS.

    In '90 they changed it so 325i coupes were listed as 325iA on the sticker instead of 325iS/A. '90 325iS cars still had "325is" on the sticker.
    In the garage atm and can only confirm that I'm an idiot - I was thinking of the tire pressure sticker on mine, which says "BMW 325i/A USA", but the VIN sticker does say "325is-2"

    So what's the difference? Pretty sure my '90 says isA or iA or something. One of the stickers does at least.
