    FS: 1987 325iS - Alpine White

    ***Asking $4,500. Price is FIRM*** Fresh, Updated Pictures!!

    After a decade of owning an e30 it’s time to move on. For now...

    As near and dear as this car is to me, it’s the right time to sell it. Without space for 2 cars and my need for a reliable work commuter, some lucky enthusiast will gain a fine BMW classic! If a R3v member buys this car I will donate $100 from the sale to keep R3v's servers running. This site was a huge part of my inspiration and helped me learn so much from a lot of amazing enthusiasts! I would love to see it go to a forum member!


    I’ll try to keep this simple, yet thorough. Please don’t hesitate to ask for details or pictures on anything!

    - 1987 325iS

    EXTERIOR
    - -Good condition original paint job (Alpine White)
    - -16” BBS RS replica wheels with new tires (couple hundred miles on them)
    - -iS side skirts
    - -Euro plate filler
    - -Mtech 1 spoiler
    - -Unknown aftermarket rear bumper (Anyone know what it is?)
    - -iS lip with black splitter
    - -Fully refurbished OEM foglights w/ yellow lamin-X film
    - -Euro grilles
    - -Non-pitted, great condition Ellipsoid headlights (w/ 6000k HID’s)
    - -Plastic bumper swap
    - -Euro bumper trim (plastic bumper euro trim)
    - -Almost new windshield
    - -Smoked turn signals

    INTERIOR
    - -E30 M3 front seats (Decent condition for 30 year old leather seats anyway)
    - -Ski pass rear bench seat with custom headrests installed
    - -Mtech 1 steering wheel
    - -Euro check panel
    - -Power mirrors, sunroof, and windows
    - -Pop-out rear windows

    ENGINE/MECHANICAL
    - - built motor w/ roughly 160-165k miles on it
    - -New Bilstein Sport shocks &struts with new strut & shock mount kit (less than 2.5k miles)
    - -Front strut bar
    - -Spark plugs replaced (10/2017)
    - -O2 sensor replaced (10/2017)
    - -Fuel system adjustment (10/17)
    - -Rebuilt Driveshaft (9/2015)
    - -Driveshaft flex joint replaced (9/2015)
    - -Control arms/bushings replaced (9/2015)
    - -Tie rod assembly replaced (9/2015)
    - -Throttle boot replaced (9/2015)
    - -Booster vacuum hose replaced (9/2015)
    - -Battery replaced (6/2015)
    - -Drive belts replaced (6/2015)
    - -Valve Adjustment (7/2014)

    Here are the issues/wear and tear report on the car:

    EXTERIOR - -Small crack in 1 taillight
    - -Splitter has a crack in it (essentially making it 2 pieces, but very much “functional”)
    - -One fog light doesn’t turn on (I most likely wired it terribly, as I’m awful with wiring)
    - -BMW roundels are worn out
    - -Mtech 1 spoiler is off at the moment (in the middle of being repainted)
    -
    INTERIOR
    -Driver side interior door handle is seized or broken. I have a replacement door handle but have failed to properly install it yet – door card is currently off as a result)
    -Top part of shift knob is loose
    -Driver’s side seat has some wear and tear
    -Sunroof still opens, but isn’t as smooth in doing so (has a hitch in it)
    -Check panel lights come on when they shouldn’t be (classic problem)
    -Drivers side knee bolster needs to be reinstalled (I still have I believe)
    -Gauge cluster not functioning properly (Sometimes speed gauge will go dead, the odometer only works about half of time but this only started happening a few thousand miles ago, oddly no problems with RPM, engine temp, or fuel gauges)
    -CD player needs to be replaced (but who needs music when your car sounds so much better!)

    ENGINE/MECHANICAL
    -Rear passenger side wheel makes a strange whining noise occasionally
    -Windshield washers do not work (Local shop in Redmond previously fixed this issue but it came back shortly after, our family no longer uses that shop now among other reasons)

        Thanks! I think it's a very fair price. Hopefully some R3v'er will give it a good new home.

                My buddy is looking for something like this...

                Is the A/C still installed at least?... Im guessing it doesnt work otherwise you wouldve mentioned it

                Rear bumper & Trim, are they properly trimmed to fit the higher arches of the early model?

                Status of Mtech1 rear spoiler?

                I sent it to him and will forward him your answers

                  A/C does not work, but I believe it is still installed.


                  Bumpers fit great, the trim on the front does as well. The rear bumper trim sticks out a TINY amount past the bumper ending next to the wheel well.


                  Mtech 1 spoiler is in good shape, however, I was in the middle of repainting the colored insert portion and never finished. Obviously included in sale.

                      not sold

                      This car is a very good buy in my opinion. Just the bumpers and I think that is euro trim?
                      are worth a lot.
                      This car will be gone this week! Still wish I had not just bought a car!!

                        Thanks for the kind words! It's no garage queen and certainly has a fair amount of issues, but there are SO many cool goodies and work done to this car. Someone with wrenching knowledge is going to strike a gold mine! Praying it's a R3v'er!

                          so what did you do to warrant raising the price $500 from $4500-> $5000?

                            Nothing. I understand if you are no longer interested, but I am free to change price as I wish.
