I have access to a grey market 1992 e36 325i. It is Diamond Schwarz in color (not avaliable in the US on the e36, previously avaliable on cars such as e30 M3) and has a black cloth (euro only cloth design) interior. The car has 219,XXX kilometers, (approx 136,000 miles) The car has NO sunroof.

Special *EURO* features include M Tech non-airbag steering wheel, gauges in metric (cluster, heater/ac controls, euro obc) crank rear windows, elipsiod headlights, euro trunk lid, no sunroof, euro cloth interior (non sport, non heated seats), Sony deck with changer, aftermarket speakers.

Things that need some care: Drivers seat has a repariable 4 or 5 inch tear in the center portion of the seat. Rocker pannel on passanger side has a small dent. The car has some dings as any 12 year old car would, and paint could use a good detail, which will be provided as I am a proffesional detailer. Body would be a 6.5 or 7/10. The reason this car could possibly be for sale is that the engine has been hydrolocked. The car is not flooded, but water was ingested through the intake path and this is the only water damage sustained to the vehical. No rust was noticed from my inspection of the car.

This car would be PERFECT as a track car to have a new motor swapped in such as an s50 or s52 or even having the current engine rebulit.

I will post up pictures Tuesday, and will be able to answer more questions once I see the car again.

I am entertaing offers at this time, so post em up!

A lot of plusses on the car, but I don't think non-M '92 E36 rollers sell for that much - even if you were to make an attempt at rebuilding what was in there it would be a non-vanos M50, so you are almost forced into making some kind of swap.

I appreciate the bumps, but please don't post unless you're interested in buying the car, thanks.
