Best places to look for a decent 318?
« on: January 20, 2008, 06:40:12 PM »
I am a sucker for base model BMW's.  I have decided I NEED a base model 1991 318i sedan. I am looking for as basic a model as I can find.  Zero options would be the ideal.  Any leads or good places to look would be appreciated.  I am not a bottomfeeder and realize what I am looking for in great condtion will be a tough find.  I will pay top dollar for the right car.

Thanks in advance,

Andrew

Those cars are few and far between, although most of the sedans are zero-options cars. California, Arizona, Texas, and Florida would be the places to look, as it is almost impossible to find any e30 on good condition in the north.

Strangly enough, I've seen several driving around here.  Although only one for sale.  They all look pretty rough though...  :)
But until I got one from 600 miles away, I just did not realize there were ignorable ones right here.
Just keep yer eyes open for awhile...

Hey - lots of early BMWs here that are clean and rust free. Denver area. Good Luck.

Where are you located? I might be willing to sell my '91 318i in the Portland, OR area.
