    1988 BMW E30 Coupe Pricing

    Hello everyone. I have a 1988 BMW E30 ready to be sold, and I was wondering how much it should go for? It is white and is the 325is model. Visually, it is in pretty good condition. It is not sparkling, but a deep wash or new paint job will bring its shine back. The badges and wheel stickers were recently replaced, so they look very good. There are a few decently sized scratches on the hood of the car however. The car has electrically powered windows, however the passenger side window does not work. The car also has electrically powered sun roof. The interior is pristine with leather seats and nice speakers. There is an installed Bluetooth radio and the rear speakers were restored recently. The original radio is still in my possession though. The odometer and tachometer do not work however, and the fuel gauge can be faulty at times. The plastic compartment underneath the steering wheel is hanging a little bit, but a few screws will fix that. The engine is 6 cylinders and works fantastically. The biggest internal problem is that the transmission is broken. This occurred because the transmission fluid leaked, and the transmission broke due to that. There are few problems with the car, but I feel it can still be worth a good sum because the majority of parts are intact and the broken ones can be easily replaced or restored. I was wondering if someone could help me out and give me a good listing, or even make an offer for the car. I can upload pictures if needed. Thank you for your time.

    it has a straight ( inline ) 6 cylinder, not a V6

    youre probably looking at getting around $1000 for it in my experience.

    with the transmission toast along with some other problems...really going to hurt your price tag.. MAYBE $2k ?? but i woudlnt expect much more.

    photos would help

    No e30s, again :(
    no way man, you are not getting 1k for it north of Houston with a bad trans and all that stuff not working.. running e30s are barely going for more then that in the shape you described. that is a, maybe, a 500 dollar car. unless you sell to an e30 person, you are not getting 1k for it.
    No e30s again.

    Your pics link is broken, can you re-upload?

    I'd also be interested in possibly buying your OEM radio, let me know which model it is and if you have pics, thanks.
