Well let's see, I am leaving to teach English in Japan for over 1 year and I really don't want the car sitting in my garage for that long of time, or fear my siblings driving it :P

Just seeing if I can sell now and not worry about it the whole time I am out of the country,
1996 328ic with 130,000+ miles
Hell Rot with Tan Interior (power front seats)
Automatic transmission and the Semi-Automatic Power top
Roll-over protection

Recent Upgrades-
-Brembo Brake Upgrade (not BBK)
-1997 328ic style steering wheel/ airbag/ slip ring (Colored BMW Emblem)
-Eibach Swaybars + ES poly bushings
-Rear plastic window (Old one was too scratched)
-Color Matched U.S. Spec. Headlights
-Just had an alignment too.

New from Bav-auto
-Lower Control Arm bushings (1996 M3 Red Poly type)
-Full- Metal Ball-joints
-Wheel Bearings
-Bav-auto Sport Springs
-Upper Strut Bearings (1996 M3)
-Just ordered Bilstein shocks too
-New Tires with 16" OEM BMW rims (euro style not a US option)
- O2 sensors and factory 328 exhaust.

I have the E-46 M3 style wheels with new tires, but, I am not sure if I will include them in the sale. They too are from bav-auto, I will need to think about it first, truly the only thing I dislike is the paint, it is from upstate NY and has some chips and dings in the paint. I would really like to have this fixed before I sell the car. I also have all the OEM parts that I have taken off the car. I don't wan't it to see as if the car is too rough or is "done-up" wrong, I just bought the car as everthing was needing to be replaced and I decided to upgrade, The car drives great and there aren't ANY mechanical problems.
Please let me know what you think about this car, I was hoping to get someone into this car that would appreciate it as much as I have. I really wanted to get into the car show scene but I only have until the end of the summer, as of now, I have won a 2nd place trophy at a car show and am really hooked now.
Thanks again for your time, Zach.
