    Im really curious what the 325iS will sell for today. The auto doesnt seem to be as big of an issue as I thought it would

      This will be an interesting one to watch.


      Is it me or is the rear drivers side tire riding much lower than the other 3 tires? All the other tires have stock like fender gap and the rear left one is almost tucked. Broken shock?

        Just the picture and the surface it was parked on. Look at the main picture in front of the bridge

          It probably is just the camera angle, but I'm not sure. That driveway looks fairly flat and if there is any incline it is the same for both rear tires. Look at the right rear passenger side wheel gap, it is much more substantial than the drivers side left rear in the picture by the bridge.

          You can notice it in a few pictures, but when you look at the 4 photos of the wheels/tires and compare the two rears you can really see the bumper side trim is a few inches different where they line up from one side to the other.

            $13,500 Not a bad price for an auto. Wonder what it would have brought as a 5 speed.

              A lady bought it as a gift to her husband for his bday....interesting. It does look super clean at only 85k miles. It's easier to do a 5 speed swap than it is to find one in this condition.

                Minnesota location and with two red E30s, one being an M3s makes me think it's the r3v member that has a fairly mint M3

                      There's also a 87 iS with euro bumpers. Totally missed that one. It's really clean.

                        This is his own car, he has another red s54 m3 as well. (2.5-12) I helped with both swaps (mainly with beer and food lol) and he was the one who helped put the m52 into my 325i.

                          Might want to also chime in on the auction because the grumbling about rust can kill the auction.

                            yup.. Any pics he can post to set peoples mind at ease will help his auction.
