Title: 1992 318i Cabrio Northeast Flordia... SOLD
Post by: vonkamp on May 06, 2012, 07:32:16 AM

Car is sold

I bought another so I'm selling this one...

First, the bad. AC clutch locked up so no AC. Kind of a big deal if you are middle aged going on old and live in Florida.
Link for new compressor (http://www.discountacparts.com/addtocart~year~1992~make~BMW~model~318~descript~A-C_Compressor~part~60-01260.asp#)

.Other than that, it needs nothing. I have done all the usual stuff you see here on the  website. Has 175k on ODO

COP
Intake mess
Oil pan bolts
M3 control arm bushings with new control arms
Tie rods
replaced braking system/ OEM from Turner motorsport
Hella headlights
Cam chain tensioner
Magnaflow muffler (quiet)
Battery
Euro clock
Differential mount
Professional window tint
Odometer gears
Falken tires have about another 8k left on them...

I would like to get $3200 for it and I'll throw a full set of Bilsteins in the trunk.

I'm just advertizing here for now as I would like to see someone who appreciates the M42 get it....
PM or call 904-449-6774 Serious inquiries only please as I am very busy these days...

So you have NOT done the chain on this car?  Have you taken off the cam cover to look at the sprockets and chain?  Does it make noise?  Soooooo what is better about the car you bought that made you want to sell this one?  Anything else at all wrong with it?

The one I bought is a super low mileage, 9.9 out of 10 condition that I paid commensurately for. It will be my daily driver.

I have not taken the cam cover off and it does not make any noise.
I can not think of anything else that is wrong with the car. It really drives well and was my daily driver until I got the other one about a month ago. I should also mention that it has been garage kept since I have owned it...

I wish you were closer, and my wife was more amenable.

What's the base lemon lot?  Military?

Yea, lot on base where you can park your car with a for sale sign dubbed the "lemon lot".

Will the military cut you a break on shipping the car to a different "lemon lot?"

I wish. It's an informal thing and not "official" in any way.
