FS: E36 325is with upgrades

[drewwtms]

1994 E36 325is coupe, 6/94 production, 166,000 miles. Black with tan leather. 5-speed manual. Serviced since 2004 at Turner Motorsport (BMW dealer service before that). The whole car is in great condition with many parts replaced since I bought it in August, 2004. Black exterior (great paint and only 1 small area of rust), tan leather interior in excellent shape. No issues or abuse.

Power windows, locks, sunroof, seats (heated too), remote alarm/locking, OBC, traction control, etc. A loaded car with nearly every option out there. Two sets of wheels/tires included: summer 17", winter 15".

Major upgrades: 17x8” Original BMW multi-spoke wheels, Bilstein shocks, H&R sport springs, Hartge front bumper, M3 clutch and M3 aluminum flywheel, B&M short shift kit, stock M3 muffler, TMS chip, TMS underdrive pulleys. Just added: limited slip with stock 3:23 gearing.

Alpine tuner/CD head unit and I'll include a Kenwood 6-disc CD changer (not yet installed in the car). Stock system also included.

Thousands of dollars in new parts and maintenance in the last two years. The very short To Do list is for a coolant level sensor and summer tires.

Clean and solid throughout. I'm only selling because a nice E36 M3/4 would fit better into my family plans.

ASKING $7300

Thanks.

price?

Oops. I edited the original.

ASKING $8000.

Thanks.

$8000 is still way too high, its a 94 325is, try $5000, you don't get any money back for modifications.

As much as I agree you shouldn't bash his asking price ;)

Miles?

[M3Rob95]

i would say its fair, suspension alone is almost a g, plus the clutch and what not, i would love the car if i saw some pics...

[JohnnyWash1]

Miles better be very low. I have only 100K on my 1994 325is, and I was asking $6900.

[loudes 13]

I think it has 189k miles

Here are some pics from today. The inch of snow yesterday has made the roads a little too dirty. The car was dirty a mile after leaving the car wash.

Too bad I can't post pictures or even URLs here but I guess you can try this:

Interior, engine bay, and other shots will come later.


As for the price, it's up to an interested buyer what they want to pay but thanks for your feedback. In defense of my asking price I know that this is a car with average mileage (166k), needs nothing but a few small parts (which I plan to do before selling), has a straight and true chassis (no accidents), and is upgraded to make it a much more enjoyable car without sacrificing good looks, reliability, or compromising comfort. I know there are cars out there that are less money up front but then you factor in that it might need control arms and bushings, a brake job, shocks, or a clutch -- or (gulp) all of these things. This is a car where the new owner doesn't have to concern him/herself with these issues. If I were trying to get back the money for parts/service my asking price would be thousands more.

Thanks

I don't know where you got this number from but it's pretty far off. The car has 166,000.

[drewwtms]

I am lowering the price on my car to $7300 and including a limited slip diff that I bought but have not yet installed (installation to be done before sale is completed).

Thanks.

Coming this weekend. The weather looks it will be cooperating tomorrow afternoon or Sunday.

[drewwtms]

Interior pictures are done. I guess you have to e-mail me for the photos or the actual line because I don't have enough posts to put up pictures.
