Price: $5700 negotiable

Up for sale is my 95 318ti clubsport. For those who aren’t familiar with them the clubsports are extremely rare, with only about 300 made (this is a real CS with the vin as proof). I bought the car last year with a swap in mind but after finding out how rare these cars were I just couldn’t do it. Now I’m on another project so I gotta let this one go. I have put a considerable amount of money into the car since I’ve had it and now it’s a rock solid DD. The paint is definitely lacking with clear coming off in several areas and a few minor dings, but the interior is nearly flawless minus the headliner and some bolster and steering wheel wear. Theres also some rust in the usual spots.
I’m asking $5700 for this. My price is slightly negotiable but I’m already losing money on the car and I don’t need to sell it either so don’t lowball me please. I’m also open to trades. I prefer Japanese sports cars (rwd or awd manual trans only please) but I’m open to most stuff. All of the below has been done in the last 8-10 months (except for a few mods by the PO) and I have receipts for it all. All parts are OE or similar quality, no cheapo stuff. Even oil filters are Mann only. I tried to list everything but please contact me with any questions or for more pics.

Also, since its for an e30 I just need the head as the vc and intake are different.

From what I'm reading the head is the same minus the valves and cams. What's the condition? Mileage? Ever been over heated or worked on etc? Send pics please. Also, since its for an e30 I just need the head as the vc and intake are different. Also, price shipped to 23504?

Hi,

I pulled off my the head on my 95 318ti's m42 today to replace what I thought was a blown hg only to find worse: a cracked head. I'm taking it to a local cylinder head shop to see if it can be repaired tomorrow but in the mean time I need to look for a replacement if it can't be, along with a few other parts. You can respond to this thread or email me at jmejia019@yahoo.com. All parts are for MY95 318ti, production month 10/95, M42 engine.

-M42 cylinder head. I dont know how many different heads there are for this motor but it must match my current one. cams are not necessary but ill take them if the seller doesn't want to remove.

-CLEAN (or reasonably so) valve cover. I have a perfectly functional one now, just dirty and grimy with cooked oil all over. a clean oil filler cap would be nice too

-CLEAN upper intake mani. the same deal as the vc, just a cosmetic upgrade so it must be clean.

Thanks you all for you help!
