91 318is - (FL)
« on: February 04, 2010, 01:45:01 PM »
This car is described as the poor man's M3 .. I now understand why ..
Only after driving will you understand. This car is the most fun to drive next to the E30 M3
The Good:
New Tires, New Shocks all the way around , new Clutch, New Front Brakes
E36 M3 Leather seats (Front and Rear)
Short Throw Shifter
Performance Chip - I have the stock Chip if you would like to put that back in (I also have another computer with the stock Chip in it)
New Water Pump and Thermostat
Tinted Windows
Alpine Stereo

This Car Drives unbelievable - I woudn't hesitate to take it anywhere

So Why am I selling ? My son (new driver) doesn't want a Stick Shift .. He doesn't know what he is missing ..

The Bad:
Paint on Top surfaces(Hood, Roof,Trunk) are peeling
Small rust spot near wiper (about the size of a quarter)

Extras - I also have some more extra parts that will be included in sale
(2 door panels, 2 taillights, fanclutch, factory rear seat and various odds and ends)

Asking  $4500 OBO .. Photos available on request ..

You really shouldn't take the time to type out a reply to flame the guy.. if you think the price is too high, don't buy it.. Its his ad, his asking price,, give him some respect and mind your manners....

Well I'm just going by experience, I had the same car. I recently sold it for 2200. Not to bust your balls but I think u should get around the 3k range. Sorry no need for a test drive, I bought a m42 E36 after I sold the E30 for 1500.

Well ThaiRacer , you may have had a similar car , but I am pretty sure you didn't have a full set of E36 M3 Vaders in yours and all the other goodies. Anyway , I appreciate your input ..  So Long..   P.S.  Congrats on your E36

Like anything, it's worth what someone will pay for it.  If it does not sell at his asking price, he'll get the message.  He does not need every buyer, just one.

Says the one that prefers an E36 to an E30......

I didnt say I prefer the E36 over the E30, the E30 was my favorite car. I got the E36 cause it was more classier.

but to OP Gl with the sale.
