Selling a 77k mile, Euro Conversion, AC Schnitzer fitted, 1987 325ic with a 5-Speed Manual Transmission. The reason for the sale is a possible move out of state due to work relocation. The hardtop does not leak and has a redone headliner in black. I’ll be as detaile1s possible in the listing with pictures matching any defects. [[/B
History: I purchased this car as the fourth owner in the summer of 2015 after my 91 325i was totaled. The car was garaged and used for dates and dinners by the previous owner. From what the previous owner told me, the car has never seen snow since it was originally a North Carolina vehicle and the body shows. The car has been in climate-controlled storage for the past year with no leaks. All work including the 5-speed manual swap was done by Dennis at OMG Motorworks, a reputable E30/BMW Shop in Long Island.
Exterior: This car has all original paint except for the ACS body kit, and the hood. It’s overall in solid condition and matches the low mileage on the car but is not perfect. The original owner fitted red stripes on the car, which were removed, revealing a darker shade from the original paint and a few spots where the paint lifted. The metal on the euro bumpers are very clean with minimal to no rust. The rear metal bumper chrome has a scuffmark on it noticeable from certain angles. All of the exterior moldings have been replaced including windshield, driver, passenger, and rear and trunk seal.
Interior: The car currently has coupe seats in the front with vert seats in the rear. I would rate the interior a 9/10. The door cards, rear seats, passenger seat, dash, center console, and carpet are immaculate. The driver’s seat has a couple of blemishes you can find in the pic. The ACS Wheel is original with no rips or loose stitching. The ACS shift knob is slightly faded but you can still see the ACS logo. Interior seals replaced include driver, and passenger.
Mechanical: I’ve put close to 12k into the car in the past two years making sure it’s up to date with proper maintenance and upgrades. Timing Belt was done at 40k and most recently at 62k along with water pump, coolant flush and new tie rods. The transmission swap included all new seals, rod and shifter bushings. Other work includes motor mounts, full power steering rebuild, axel boots, and more. For a full list see blow.
