Before you begin... Please contact if you have less than 6 feedback score for more information! Thanks. I am listing my own 1996 BMW 328i Convertible with about 97,000 miles. I purchased it about 3 to 4 months ago from the second owner, and have decided to sell it because it's not too practical with 3 kids, etc. I really don't want to sell it, and my kids definitely not, but reason has to overcome infatuation! Maybe later one I will buy another one as a second car use. The car that appears next to the BMW's photo is what I will be driving from now on.... Not as sexy but it's bigger, has 4 doors, and and it's automatic, and my wife like it too, in part because she can drive it! I purchased this car because I was impressed with its condition-the previous owners took very good care of it. It was also garaged for sometime while they lived in Dubai. I have all paperwork history, etc. This is a very nice running vehicle. It's very tight, drives straight, etc. Mechanically needs nothing, A/C works too. I just spent close to $1,500 on rear wheel bearings, new tires, new slave cylinder, and new rear shocks. It also has a new top. As the photos demonstrate, the car cosmetically looks petty good, still, the paint has blemishes here and there. Some I have retouched with factory touch up paint brush which I will include with the sale. It has some small dings here and there, but these are too difficult to show in images. Also, the hood is bit weak (see photo). The door panels, which are typical of this BMW production era, some sections are coming unglued, and/or the sun has shrunk the material. Nothing alarming, but I would recondition at some point. Another point, the engine light is on, and I took it to my mechanic and he said that it was just a sensor (oxygen) of sorts, but nothing that affects the BMW whatsoever. I will leave it to the new owner to fix. I have the part too. For those that don't know the difference between the 325i and the 328i engine; the 325i and 328i both have about the same power. Actually, the 328i has one more horse power. The difference is in the torque. The 328 has more torque at the right places, and therefore it's quicker and more fun to drive. Critics used to say that It was the best thing after the M3! eBay stopped offering complementary Auto Check since April 1st. Previous owner showed me Car Fax report for this car but I can't find it. I do remember that the car scored very high, and had no accidents, and everything else checked out fine, so I will leave it to the new owner to pull a record history for this vehicle if such desires it. To sum things up, this is a very nice Bimmer, and I can assure you that whomever wins it will be very happy with. Contact me with any questions and thanks for looking!! This is a NO RESERVE LISTING, so this is a good opportunity to acquire a nice BMW 328i Convertible. Serious eBay members only, PLEASE!! As you can see per my feedback I don't play games so extend me the same courtesy. There's a $500.00 deposit due within 24 hours, so make sure this is what you want before bidding, and that your financials are in order too! I will assist buyer with shipping arrangements, but all costs are buyer's responsibility. No Warranties whatsoever, sold as is. I have the right to end listing before the end of auction if sold locally, which is rare but I have to mention it. Don't hesitate to contact me with any questions via email or at 727.522.2531 TO MEMBERS: I am not a dealer, I provide a service to individuals in need of listing their particular vehicles unless stated above. Most of the people that I list for; don't know how to use a computer, don't have the time, and/or don't want the aggravation. I do not take possession of the vehicle nor the title, I just assist them. It's important to express that I just don't list anybody, I check all paperwork, examine items, and test them myself including driving them if applicable. If I don't feel comfortable with the item, or individual I will pass on the opportunity! I consider myself mechanically inclined , and have a very good eye for paint finish, bodywork, etc, for I used to work for a restoration shop back in my days while attending college! Satisfied eBay members is the most important part of any listing transaction that I make. As much as one tries to best describe or list issues about any particular vehicle, it's impossible to account for all possible things that can go wrong with a machinery. It will probably be a good idea to have the vehicle inspected before the end of auction to be 100% sure. Know that I will always try to list as accurate as possible in order to avoid unnecessary issues. Of course it's always challenging to satisfy all members, all the time, but I will try to do my best in continuing enjoying my current feedback status with your help! So, bid with confidence and contact me with any questions!
