Apologize if some of the text seemed a bit odd since I copy pasted the text from the craigslist ad that I posted.
Selling my 1995 BMW 325is with a 5 speed manual transmission. Runs and Drives good, 246K Miles and going up. Everything works, heat, A/C. Interior 8/10. Exterior 3.5/10. Clean title in hand, located near Baltimore MD. Asking $2600
If you're looking for a perfect car, this isn't it. However, if you want a decent compact car that's fun to drive and has that classic 50/50 weight distribution, rwd+manual+LSD combo, then this might be it. This car still puts a smile on my face every-time I drive it. It has served me well over the years as a spare car and a winter beater, but I recently got a newer 4x4 SUV for winter duties, so this could use a new home.
Anyway, the car. 2 previous owners, no accidents. Everything works, sunroof, windows, viper key-less entry, good aftermarket audio system with Aux input, and a powerful amp, you name it.
Issues:
Clear coat is peeling on the hood and there are few rust areas on the exterior. Underneath there is minimal rust. It's a 23 year old car, afterall.
One of the rear wheel bearings is makes noise occasionally
Idles jumpy during initial startup, but goes away after warming up.
Upgrades in this car worth more than the asking price. Also, I can include any spare parts I have with the sale. This could be perfect for a drift/ autox, as it handles nicely with this current upgraded suspension.
Willing to negotiate in person.
