    Cool car, j-let simplicity but still injected. An M20 so still a reliable engine. That is like-new mileage for an E30. It should have plenty of miles left in it. Just make sure they have changed the timing belt and waterpump recently.

    What year is it?
    Im now E30less.

        heres some info:
        1984 323i Euro, located in the Pacific Northwest
        ~92,000 miles
        all paperwork including orginal purchase in Germany, importation, EPA conversion, etc.
        taken back to european specs in 99 (notice bumpers & the side marker lights)
        $3000 paint job
        recent 325is exhaust
        ATE powerdiscs
        UUC Short shift kit
        Boston Acoustics speakers
        Blaupunkt Alaska CD player & Amp
        Euro H1 & H3 headlights
        Euro straight pipe (not currenlty installed)

        You'd be hard pressed to find a better example. $7000 obo.

        I definately dont plan on paying 7k. so ill prolly just go take a look at it and see how that goes.

              It sounds very nice if you can talk the owner down a bit, I hope it all goes well! :D

                  i've seen one that matches that description floating around in tacoma.. i was trying to get a flyer to him after classes (i see him around campus), but he's always taking off before i get a chance.

                    Sounds like he is trying to get the money back for the paint job and all the other mods.

                    My car was $1200 stock.

                        Don´t get the 323i

                        Get a 325is , ´90 model instead,

                        those 323i where amazing cars, only to be run over by the 325i´s later,
                        325i has everything like the 323i and more power and equal or better mpg,
                        also since you are in the states having a 325i is alot less hassle, as that car has everything ´83-´85 based, and bunch off stuff not found in US cars,
                        mostly little things

                          Not really since most of my parts come from Bavauto. Funny going through the dealer here (La Maddalena) it takes 2-3 months to get spark plugs, valve covers. Call Bavauto and get it in a week :D
