There is more, but you get a pretty good idea of it. ALL of these modifications have been done in the past 3 months. All fluids are fresh and the motor runs excellent. Also, many OEM parts were bought brand new including moldings, f/r bumpers, misc. interior pieces, etc. The car has recently been claybarred, as well as full Zaino wax treatment. Also, leatherique and Lexol are used on the dove grey seats.
I am asking $17,500 OBO.
Please, no one interrupt my ad for the car, with comments such as, "95 M3's go for 13-15k." This car is not a high mileage 1995 M3 and is for someone who wants exactly what I have, which is a fast, clean, unique car.
I am negotiable on the price (cash talks) and I can make the cost lower by removing ANY parts. E-mail me, if interested, at will976@aol.com

Nice ride - Good luck with your sale!

Thank you. I hope it goes well also. I know a lot of people out there want a clean, clear title 318ti w/ all the M goodies and believe me at 14k-17k you CAN NOT put all this together, even without labor; let alone finding this rare, classy blue exterior matched with the super mint grey/dove grey vader interior.
The insurance money you save alone is worth it for any 95-97 M3 lookers in NJ. Full coverage under my father's name(clear) for a 1995 M3 is $5,100/year. For this 1995 318ti, it is a mere $2,800/year (not mere, but it's NJ haha). After 2-3 years of this insurance "break", you could have saved yourself enough money for a powerful supercharger or turbo kit on this OBD1 3.0L beast (this is what I REALLY want to see the buyer carry out).
The car in its current, lightly modded, all motor form is much faster than any stock or even mildly modded M3's with the 300+ lb's you save. And the simple, yet easily controlled e30/M coupe style rear suspension makes it a blast to drive. Not to mention the nice looks and compliments from people when they notice a cleanly modified BMW in a form many have never seen and some even think is new; a hatchback !!!
I REALLY don't want to sell it and there is a lot of money to be lost for me in this deal, BUT I need the money for college debt and other financial issues that have come up in my life. This car has only been in my hands for a few months and in that short time, I have built it to my long-time desired specifications with no expense spared. There was much head-ache filled planning and searching for this car and ALL the M parts on it. However, I LOVE every second driving or even sitting in the car, but (pardon my language) shit happens and I gotta sell it.
Hopefully someone will gain from my loss and enjoy this car as much as I do.

Don't let anyone hammer you on the price, I would have gladly paid that price if it had been available in January when I bought the turbo M3. Nice work.

Thanks for the support.
I like your car as well. Turbo sounds ...ahhhhh... and those wheels are among my favorite on the board. I have a thing for black rims w/ red lips (from the JDM scene like Mugen RNR's). I thought about powdercoating these Contours flat black with a polished lip, but I don't think the majority of BMW people or anyone in general "gets it".
Props.

Thanks for the compliment Joe, and to think I was only shifting at 6 - 6.5k RPM on those couple of pulls. I admit, I like to push the gas sometimes (who doesn't with 220rwhp :) ), but this car has not been abused, nor tracked or drag-raced..
In fact, 95% of the miles I have put on the car, in the short time of buying the shell and building it, (less than 3 months) has been trips back and forth from Rutgers, New Brunswick, NJ back up to Bergen County, NJ, near the George Washington Bridge.
This is exactly why I wanted this car. Pretty much for that 45 minute trip and keeping it on campus and at my house and not having to worry TOO much about it (real M3's get way more attention from thieves and dicks).
I built this car as the ultimate daily driver. Something that was a little fast (hehe), looked good, but not too crazy, relatively cheap to maintain, and at the same time had a little bit more luxury, comfort and style unlike many other fast daily drivers (honda's, DSM's, etc).
Sadly, I have to sell it because of a financial rut, I dug myself.

Just like 'madsedan' said - you shouldn't let anyone give you a rough time with your asking price - this car looks and sounds as it is in great shape and I bet the new onwer will be getting a true performance ti. The lowest I d go, just for the sake of it, is $16,8K.
Good luck to ya!

Hey, I said OBO. If someone makes this deal easy on me, then I can definately negotiate. I have sold a couple of my modded cars before and they aren't easy to sell with all the dreamers and flakers out there.
The price can drop a couple thousand if I take a few mods off here and there. i.e. ZKW headlights = $400 right there

Nicest ti I've ever seen. I know a guy who dropped a '98 M3 engine in one. Fast.

Thanks!

Hey thanx for the bumps. This type of project takes a decent amount of time since it is not your ordinary e36. In the end it is worth it though and shouldn't be TOO much of a hassle finding the correct parts to make it all work and run good.

Hey, does anyone know how to get ahold of will? I talked to him last night and i think we worked something out. I got the cash today (sunday) but he is not picking up the phone. If someone can get ahold of him that would be great. I am between cars now, and I think today should be the last day of this not having a personal daily driver. Thanks
