These are not being sold through my dealership, they are private sales. I am helping my mechanic sell them. We have clean titles for both.

1996 BMW 328i  
5-Speed  
173,000 miles

Engine, tranny, driveline are mechanically sound. Clutch good. 4 good tires. Body is straight with barely any rust and interior is clean gray leather. Been sitting for a while, may need rotors and pads but the brakes work ok. ABS light on, maybe wheel speed sensor. I think it needs a rear shock mount or a bushing somewhere, it makes a clunk over bumps. My mechanic knows what it is so I’ll have to ask him. $2900

Or more…

Sorry to sidetrack your thread ☹ That’s a great deal on a decent condition E30. There are much much MUCH more beat ones going for more money.

the e30 is pretty beat, but it runs and drives.

The e30 M3 is my fathers car. It’s an 88 Henna red, very rare color. He doesn’t care to sell it but if someone is seriously interested it could be a possibility. It’s not going cheap…

Is there anything wrong with the 325ix besides being really high mileage and the body being beat up?
