Very nicely sorted and reliable E30 track car, perfect for driving to HPDE events. I’ve driven from Atlanta to Birmingham (Barber), Savannah (Roebling), and Bowling Green (NCM) without issues. Dyno’d at 198 hp and 195 lb/ft at the wheel. Car ran a 144.06 at Road Atlanta and a 123.5 at Roebling Road with more time left on the table.

I bought it from a BMW Technician in 2018 (knew the two previous owners as well) and have had a blast the past 18 months and greatly improved my driving skills. But not getting to the track as much lately and need to make room in my garage.

It's been a southern car it's whole life and is rust free. Bodywork is in decent shape but does have some minor dings/scratches that have been painted over, and the clearcoat is almost nonexistent on hood and roof. The rear seats, AC components, radio and rear section of carpet have been removed but everything else is still intact.

Mileage is ~203k, of which ~40k was put on since the engine swap.

Asking $9,500 OBO.
