Hi OT,
Wondering if I can bend your ear on a weekend-car I'm looking at. If you are able to read through the entire thing, and give me some feedback, I'll donate $40 to sickkids in OT's name at the end of the day. This will be my first e36, and I'm hoping some of the more knowledgeable members can scan the descriptions and point out any holes/issues I should take a closer look at.
Won't be buying with the RS's, and the current asking price is half that in the ad.
- the new cooling system components were replaced in the past year
- window switches were replaced
- softop is manual-only, no rips or tears
- cracked foglights
- minimal wear on the driver bolster
- clean underbody, no obvious rust despite being a Toronto car
- no rust
- no leaks
I'm sure all of you seen this car for sale. Sad to do it but i need money, going to Euro2012 and it's not cheap. Considering trades for a 600cc sport bike.
I will copy and paste the previous owner thread of mods/maintenance.
The car runs like a champ and pulls hard ever since i bought it.
Since then it got:
-new oem rad
-new reservoir bottle
-new clutch fan
-new shroud
-new fan blade
-new door stikers/sensors
-rear trailing arms AKG reinforcement plates
-new rear trailing arm bushings
-oem air box
