    Been Waiting a LONG time!! Finally!

    Hello All,

    Thank you in advance for your time. I just purchased a 1987 325i and it is on a transport truck as we speak.

    Thought I would share and hear some comments. I have been a long time looker and car fanatic with prior, E46, E90, E60 and P-Cars. Anyways, lets get on to it!!!

    1987 325i

    Seller found it in a barn at estate sale sitting on 4 flats i am told
    Odometer=25,xxx
    All Original with extra parts that were in the trunk and car

    Seller put new tires, brakes, rotors, pads, calipers, oil change, and fuel pump.

    Car currently wont stay running all the time, but does crank. Seller stated he thought it was the fuel pump but that didnt fix problem. He also stated when he taps the relay harness for fuel relay it will start sometimes.

    Im hoping i didnt get a money pit but we will see.

    Here she is....

      It'll be interesting to see if the odo works when you get it.

      Looks really nice. Good find!

        The seller states it works and hes was driving it before the fuel issue or whatever the issue at hand.

        Thank you..

            It looks to be extremely clean in the photos! Good luck!

            It looks like the trunk came from a 325e (the "e" appears to be debaged)?

            Also, if it's been parked for a while you may want to see if any small animals have made homes inside (or chewed through wiring).

              Based on the pictures of the tach, engine and exhaust, it appears to indeed be a 325e.

                Make sure you change the timing belt before you crank it anymore. Nice find!
