Too high of an asking price.
I'd say about 3k is about right. 3.5k tops. Remember, you will have to pay all the other fees on top of the sale price such as DMV fees, tax, etc...
Does it have records?
How many P/O's?
The dealership probably won't budge much on price and they will sit on it until it sells, especially with summer coming up.sigpic

If you're doing an S52 swap AND you plan to recover an interior anyway, then better to get one with a bad engine/drivetrain. You can get a lame duck like that for dirt cheap and toss the broken M20.
You will not get any significant money for a working M20 when you pull it.

$3k isn't bad, if the car is in good condition. Seat is not a problem. Upholstery will cost you about $400 for both front seats.
But like talltorontoguy said, if you're swapping the engine, you might as well go for a car with a bad engine. You can sometime find nice plastic bumpered cars with bad engines for much less than that.344is! Obd1 conversion

I'd take $1000 off the top just to punish him for that ridiculous Autotrader description.
Seller's Description and Comments
The 325i is not known for its 0-60 performance - it is not sluggish, but it is not a sports car. At passing speeds (50-80mph) it is quite phenomenal however - lithe and power-plenty, (I was much less impressed in this area by the automatic transmission 325is that I test-drove.) The amazing thing about this car (perhaps a general characteristic of BMWs) is consistency of the engine performance. The amount of torque, response and engine noise is completely consistent from about 1500rpm to 5500rpm. It is 'like buttah': soft and smooth.
