‘87 325iS

[Tdubzly]

Hello all I may be buying my first E30 and I was hoping y’all could tell me if it’s a M-tech or a clone. I’ve tried to find info online but I was unable to find a good source. I figured y’all would be able to help me out.

Thanks in advance

Why don't you acquire the VIN number of the BMW vehicle and go to:

Well according to that it’s just a 325i.. so I guess it is a clone after all

FYI, the iS is just an i with more options. I don't know where you're getting M-tech from, but that looks like an iS (they're two different things). What's the VIN?

[Tdubzly]

Oh. I though M-tech was a package and the “iS” was the model
Vin: WBAAA1309H8250673

- ///M logo on front and back
- side panels
- rocker panels
- mtech spoiler
- mtech steering wheel
- factory lowered on HR springs
- etc........

what makes you think it is even a clone?

i guess I didn’t understand what the MTech was. My bad...

Just so you know, that is a genuine iS however.

Just so you know, that is a genuine iS however.

How exactly can you tell it’s genuine? By the vin info? And what the options were?

[ELVA164]

Yes and yes.

[Tdubzly]

Yes and yes.

Cool thank you kindly.
