Title: SOLD: '91 318 iS - Sterling Silver, Euroweaves *NYC* *MANY PICS* $2995

SOLD

First some history on the car. This is my first E30 which I purchased in April, 2010. PO was an E30 enthusiast who had it for a few months before selling it to me due to cosmetic issues that it has. Car was traded into BMW dealership in upstate NY by an older woman for a new BMW. According to carfax, she was the only owner. I do not have any service records from the lady, and PO did not do anything since it runs great. More on this later.

Specs + Goodies:
1991 BMW 318iS
207,0XX Miles (hit 207K this morning)
Exterior: Sterling Silver
Interior: Black Vinyl Sport
5 Speed Manual
LSD
US Ellipsoid Lights (installed by me 2 weeks ago)
M-Tech 2 370mm Steering Wheel
15" Euroweaves
Sparco Strut Bar
Funky BMW Shift Knob
*Clean Title*
*Clean CarFax*

Maintenance:
1500 Miles Ago: oil change, Brembo blank rotors, Hawk HPS pads, Timing Chain Tensioner, Spark Plugs
1000 Miles Ago: front sway bar end links
100 Miles Ago: Replaced cone filter with an airbox + new air filter

The Awesome:
Runs VERY strong
Interior is MINT!
You can see everything else in pictures.

The Not So Awesome:
All four tires need to be replaced soon (I can help you get new ones at a good price)
Rust - You will see in the pictures that there is some rust in the usual places. There is NO rust under the battery. All rust is photographed.
Sunroof missing headliner and is different color.
You need to fill it up with gas slowly, otherwise gas shoots back (I can explain this better on the phone)
Other misc cosmetic issues that you will see in the pictures.


Reason for selling:
I love this car, but I am ready to move up and get a nicer E30 that I want to turbo :)



PRICE:
Lets start at $SOLD OBO However, it will include stock airbag wheel, 14" Basketweaves, and NO strut bar.

Possible Extras:
E30 M3 Springs that I did not install yet
Brand new Rear Shock Mounts that I did not install yet
IS Lip + RC Ryan Splitter that I did not install yet
If you want the above mentioned items, we can work something out.


I WOULD LIKE TO STRESS THAT THIS IS OR BEST OFFER SO BE REASONABLE, AND WE CAN WORK SOMETHING OUT

I CAN HELP WITH TEMP PLATES AND TRANSPORTATION

Looks great.  The interior is spotless and the M-Tech II wheel really helps.  That rear arch rust looks more than skin deep though.

GLWS, thanks for posting it here.

You're never going to find a better car for a turbo though...do it to this one...keep the M42!

I am looking to get the rust fixed... getting some quotes this weekend.

I LOVE M42 and I am planning to get another 318iS and turbo that one :)
Don't worry, I am not leaving the M42 family any time soon

Great photo location.

It looks like Floyd Bennett Field in Brooklyn NY.  

I grew up a few miles away from there.  That place holds some great aviation history.

BTW -- I vote that you keep it and turbo charge it.  I race a turbo M42 E30 and it's a blast.

Like I said before, I love M42 and will turbo an M42. I just want to get a car in a bit better shape.
