Car & Driver September 1990 - BMW 318is & BMW M1
« on: February 27, 2011, 04:38:55 PM »
I have (1) used, but in excellent condition Car & Driver Magazine.  This magazine is from September 1990 and among many of the articles, there is a feature article on the BMW 318is!  The article is a complete review of the then "brand new" BMW 318is and all of it's specs, pros, cons, pricing, first drive, etc.

If that is not enough, in the same magazine, there is also a feature article on the very rare BMW M1!

The magazine is in excellent condition, with NO rips, NO tears, NO missing pages and NO dog eared pages.  Magazine is complete front to back.

$15.00 shipped to any of the US 48 States.  Definitley a must have for the BMW M42 Enthusiast OR a BMW M1 Enthusiast.

Pics are from actual magazine:




Many refs can be supplied upon request if needed.

Thanks!

Tally my vote. Please do.

We are the only keepers of this car's memory. Perhaps someday it will assist with a slight bump to value.

A scan of this road test is floating around on the web.  It is not a great scan and Page 1 is not legible.  Here is the link: http://www.motortraders.net/groups/attachments/1_35_car_and_driver_sep_90.pdf

There are pdfs of many other 318is road tests on his site.  It's a treasure trove of information!
http://www.motortraders.net/groups/group.asp?group=1&menu=35.

I've had a Road & Track subscription since 1990.  If anyone needs any e30 or e36 articles, please let me know.  I'll do my best to scan and share with the community.
