    1996 Black BMW 328i Sedan Manual trans - 177k miles
    $2011 - Challenge priced GRM special Ypsilanti, MI

    Highlights:
    Recently redone cooling system. Eibach springs. Bilstein struts/shocks.

    Interior:
    Decent condition. Seats are leather and heated. A/C does not work. Driver's side A-pillar trim broke off. Otherwise interior is in quite good shape. Rear seats look barely used at all. Door panels seem solid. Rear windows and rear windshield are tinted. I removed front window tint for legality sake. Electric window motors and sunroof panel work properly. Driver's door lock has some difficulty.

    Exterior:
    Cosmetic rust. Loose heat shield under car.

    Drivetrain:
    2.8L Straight six is in good condition. Manual transmission. Pulls quite well. New cooling system, including all aluminum radiator, metal impeller water pump, new hoses, new thermostat, aluminum thermostat housing. Roughly 9 months ago. Transmission fluid changed 2k miles ago. Also replaced alternator, fuel pump and driveshaft guibo within last 6 months. However, clutch assembly is on the fritz.

    Suspension:
    A few bushings could stand to be replaced. PO replaced OEM springs with Eibach lowering springs. PO also replaced shocks with Bilstein shocks. PO's suspension work less than 4 years old.

    Brakes:
    Rear brakes need work. Have new-in-box rear rotors and pads. Will come with car.

    Pics: To be added this evening.

    Contact:
    Contact via "Contact" link. I'll then email/phone afterwards.

    Day late and $2011 dollars short as always.

    I have the feeling our government is banking on the popularity of American Cheese.

    I can be talked into this.

    All cars are now running. Time to go shopping for something that is broken.

    Note: Today verified that the issue I thought was the clutch is not the clutch. Apparently the rear diff is moving around which is making the thumping noise.

    This would make a great spec E36 race car.

    I am still interested. A rough weekend and little sleep has made me a little ornery. I am just waiting for one check to clear and I should be there.
