SOME DINGS AND DENTS ALL THE WAY AROUND. 2. 20 YEAR OLD TOP WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED. NO OTHER KNOWN ISSUES! Well, here it is. Here is the one you have been waiting, and hoping for! You knew somewhere, someplace there was an e30 325iC Convertible sitting in out there in a garage with some incredibly low mileage. Of course as the days, weeks, months and possibly years go by and your search turns up absolutely nothing. You begin to wonder if any such car exists, or have all the old classic BMW been driven and worn out? The answer is no, not all of them. We managed to locate a survivor. An unmolested, ONE OWNER, non-smoker, doctor owned, wonderfully maintained, bona-fied example of a 1992 BMW 325iC Convertible. This BMW 325iC Convertible has proven itself an instant classic, and you'll enjoy pulling up and making an impression with this car. I personally have never seen a car with a personality that even comes close to this car's. Every time I have parked this car I have found myself doing one thing over and over again. Once I've walked about 20 or 30 feet it'll turn around and take a second look at the car and marvel at how beautiful it is. Then I remember that the car is mine! It's a great feeling to have over and over again, and with this car you can have that! This car proclaims status and class anywhere it is driven. There aren't many 20 year old cars that you can still drive around this day and still make an impression. This car has a timeless body style which will always have the place in many people's heart no matter where automotive design decides to go in the future. Here is a very rare chance go get a highly desired and very hard to find example of one of the best cars BMW ever made! Up for auction is a 1992 BMW 325iC Convertible! This 2.5 liter Inline-6 cylinder engine is regarded by most BMW enthusiasts as the best engine ever placed in a BMW! You'll really fall in love with this 2.5 liter engine! The mileage on the ad was not a misprint. This car really has 59,958 actual miles on it. That's nothing on a BMW as you know! The car has a spotless history report showing only ONE owner! The car's only owner was a doctor! It's very difficult to near impossible to find these cars with this kind of low mileage. Now if that wasn't an accomplishment in itself, this car still runs like new! I kid you not. This car still handles like new. This car is at its infancy. BMW have earned a reputation for being some of the most reliable engines ever produced. The car has never, ever been smoked in! The car has a perfectly spotless history report showing the car spending its ENTIRE one owner life right here in central Texas in a rust free environment! As a result the body and undercarriage is completely free of rust. The car comes in a very attractive color combination (at least for 1992 in my opinion) Green on the outside with Tan leather on the inside. The car appears to have never been in an accident, but as you can see from the pictures it looks like the owner was either older, or had a lot of junk in their garage. Just about every area of the car has been bumped or dinged at one time or another. These look like dings that would be caused by garage clutter. Either pulling the car into a full garage and bumping into something, or something in the garage falling on the car. The body lines are straight and true, and all the metal looks original. I decided to make the car available without doing anything to the body because i'd rather price it accordingly and let you, the next owner decide what to do with it. If it were up to me I would change the color to one of BMW's colors that is not out of style (like black, red, or white) which would match perfectly with the beige interior. Of course this work isn't completely necessary as the car drives fine just how it is, but for a looker like this in its classic body style, I would get it looking its nicest! This really is the opportunity of a lifetime! What will really impress you is the condition of the car's interior. You'll be amazed by how nice it is! It really is beautiful inside! The seats are still in fantastic condition showing very minimal wear, unavoidable for the car's age. Just look at the pictures! The car's interior is everything you'd expect for such a low mileage, well preserved car! I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. You'll be absolutely impressed by the car's interior condition. You have plenty of room in the back for the entire family. The trunk has plenty of room for whatever you'd like to place back there with a full sized spare in the back. The power windows work perfectly. The power top still works great. It opens and closes quickly! As I mentioned earlier the car has its original convertible top from 1992. The top is completely worn out and will not protect the car from rain anymore. It needs to be replaced. No way around this! The power locks work great! The CD stereo system works great and provides great sound. There are no blown speakers! The power antenna still works going up and down. The instrument cluster works just as it should, none of the warning lights remain illuminated on the car. You'll really be impressed with the inside of this car! If the looks of the car didn't already impress you, then getting behind the wheel and driving the car will take your breath away! This is where you really see how well this car has really been kept! After driving this car it seems silly to spend big money on a newer one when you can get a quality pre-owned BMW that has plenty of character and a highly desired, much more reliable engine for so much less! The engine accessories turn quietly and work well, with the AC compressor keeping the inside cool and the heater hot if need be. The undercarriage of the car is very clean. Under the hood is very clean. The steering is tight, smooth and easy. The suspension feels to be in very good shape. The car holds nicely over bumps. You'll be impressed with the good state of repair this car is in. Most of these cars have let go or are in need of some repair to keep the car driving its best. This one is ready to go! Keeping you snug on the road is a very good set of tires! They are matched to a beautiful set of the original BMW alloy wheels which still look great! You won't have to worry about tires for quite some time with this car! The car provides more comfort than most modern new cars could ever hope to provide! It handles very well. The 2.5 Liter 6-Cylinder engine, while very comfortable and smooth does have plenty of pep on the highway! You'll be impressed with the power this car has! The 5-speed manual transmission still shifts just as it should. The clutch feels great! When you need to get this car stopped, the brakes will do it just as they are supposed to do, stopping the car evenly and effectively. With all that said you might ask, "well, how much?". We honestly don't know what to ask for this car because there really isn't anything quite like this on the market so we can't price the car accordingly. So we put the car up for auction and we'll let you decide how much you'd like to buy this beautiful BMW 1992 325iC Convertible for! Bid to win, and rest assured you are not wasting your time! We are aware that most dealers stick their cars online with unrealistic reserves, we aren't one of those! We will be selling this one at the close of the auction! Have a wonderful mini vacation by flying down, visiting beautiful San Antonio, Texas and driving this car home! This may be your only chance to acquire a high quality ONE OWNER 325iC Convertible with this kind of original low mileage and a one owner history! Don't miss this chance to own your dream car! This is a very rare and hard to find car that features one of the most reliable engines ever produced! You never have to worry about a shortage of buyers whenever you decide to part with this car! This is a great investment that will still prove good even years from now! Any BMW enthusiast will tell you that this is the car to have! This may be your last chance to get a car like this in this kind of condition. There just aren't any of these left that are this good! Bid early and follow the auction to the end, don't let another bidder with a couple of quick clicks of the mouse in the final minutes of the auction take your dream car away from you! Don't settle for second best. Get the car of your dreams! Don't miss your opportunity to own this beautiful car! You will not be disappointed! Want a warranty? If you are accustomed to having the option to purchase an extended warranty when you buy your pre-owned car, we can help you! The car is eligible for several warranties that we offer from basic power train coverage for three months all the way up to comprehensive coverage for 4 years / unlimited mileage and everything in between. Smaller warranties are available if you desire, but these can be provided at a very competitive rate. If you'd like details on the warranty or have any questions about the car don't hesitate to call 210-701-1860. This car is just amazing! Here is the one that you have been waiting for! A 1992 BMW 325iC Convertible with only one owner! You'll fall in love with the timeless BMW styling! Just look at the bold appearance that this car makes up front! You'll really be proud to call this car your own! Just look at how nice this car looks! Just look at this beauty! This is the car to have! The large 2.5 liter engine mixed to the timeless style of the classic e30 Convertible! These BMW cars have a timeless look that you can't get with any other car! Those well defined lines really make the car distinctive! Just look at this car's body! It still looks fantastic! 59,000 original miles on this beauty! The paint still looks good all the way around, but the body does have its flaws (noted below) The hood looks great! Clean history report and no previous accidents! The car does have a very good set of tires matched to a beautiful set of BMW BBS alloy wheels! You won't have to worry about tires for quite some time with this car! Just look at those wheels! The car just looks beautiful from every angle, even from the back! As I mentioned the car's body has its flaws, so here they are. Crack in rear bumper, passenger side rear. Small scrape/ding, passenger rear fender Small scrape/ding, passenger front fender. Ding under grille, passenger side front. Front is also missing lower plastic trim piece below fog lamps. Ding on front fender next to driver's front headlight. Ding on lower portion of door, driver's door. As you can see it's not too bad, but it's flawed nevertheless. You've got a highly desired car for a reasonable price, so you can deal with these issues on the body how you see fit! The top folds under here. As you can see the the seam where the seats come together up here has split, a very common age related issue here in Texas. These seats dry out no matter how well you keep care of them. The top goes up with the push of a button! The power top does work great! This is the original convertible top from 1992. It's worn out! Needs to be replaced. This back window actually cracked when it was put down. This back plastic was dry as dry can be. It's 20 year old plastic. It doesn't matter how well you keep it. That's a hole as up there as you can imagine. If you place something up here it could easily tear the top. It's real brittle! In the trunk is the accessory to cover the back window when the top is stored. It's a 20 year old top. This is to be expected. Look at how clean that trunk area is! You'll have plenty of room for whatever you need to store back here! This car is very versatile and is well suited for whatever you need to do in it! Notice how clean this car's trunk is! Look at how clean that trunk area is! You'll really be impressed by how nice this car's trunk is! The owner was very careful not to place anything back here that would spill or make the trunk dirty! Just look at it! The trunk looks fantastic! You even get the original tool kit! If the car itself wasn't already amazing then this will blow you away! In the spare tire well you will find the car's ORIGINAL spare tire! All the original identification plates and stickers are still intact! This car really is a survivor! The doors still look the same as the day they were new! No kick marks from getting in our out of the car! Just look at them! Here's your first look into this incredible car! You'll be completely stunned with how nice this car's interior is! It's just amazing how nice these cars can be when you have a careful, non smoking owner! It's every bit as nice as you'd expect for this kind of low mileage! The driver's seat is in still in incredible shape! We're very confident that we'll never get one this nice ever again. There just aren't any out there anymore! + There is some light wear on the common area that would get rubbed when entering and exiting the car. These are the BMW sport seats. They have an extra support on the bottom that moves! The passenger's side is also incredible! The doors are spotless! Just look at them! You won't believe how nice this car's interior is until you sit down and take a look at it! Take a look at how clean this car is! You'll be in complete disbelief! Not only will people be shocked at this car's interior condition, but they'll need to be sitting down in it when you drop the ball and tell them this car's incredibly low mileage! This car is still more than capable of making an impression wherever it goes! Both front seats are still in fantastic condition! They are beautiful to say the least! It's incredible that this car is 20 years old and looks this good! You'll be nothing but impressed with the overall condition of this car's interior! Just look at it! All the levers and trim looks fantastic! These rear seats were hardly used if ever. The split on the back is caused by the heat drying and shrinking the seat over the years. Plenty of room for passengers! The driver will cherish every second they are behind the wheel of this car! You'll be very pleased with how comfortable and luxurious this car can be while still providing world class reliability along with incredible gas mileage thanks to the 2.5 liter engine! So will the passenger! This is an experience that most people will never have! A BMW is more than just a car, it's an extension of yourself. A lot can be said with a car like this! The dash is spotless! None of the cracking that you normally see on a car of this age! Just look at the interior of this incredible car! You'll be very pleased with the layout of this car's interior! Everything is designed to be in sync with the driver! The car's a/c controls still work great! Just look at how nice they are! The a/c controls are immaculate. Virtually no wear to be found! The car's Blaupunkt CD stereo works great! The speakers are in great shape! The power top still works great! Even the onboard computer works great! You can adjust it by pressing this in! The ashtray still looks beautiful! The cigarette lighter has never used. The car has never been smoked in! Look at how clean everything is down here! The transmission still shifts great! Even the window switches is in great shape. That's incredible considering that this car is 20 years old! Everything down here is still incredibly clean! This is the real deal! A 5-speed manual! The sunvisors still work great! The instructions are dried out as you'd expect, but it's all there. The check control lights work great! None stay on! You get all the car's books along with a bunch of keys. Unfortunately the car currently needs a separate key for the trunk, ignition, and driver's door. The tumblers get old and wear out so they were replaced over time and the previous owner never had a locksmith key them all the same. It can be done still rather easily. I'm not sure why it was never done. Yes, it was 9 years ago that the timing belt was replaced, but it was 12,000 miles ago and 9 years is better than 19 years! It's safe to say that you are good to go for a while on the current timing belt! The instrument cluster works great! No warning lights stay illuminated! Original mileage! Wow! If you thought the inside of this car was clean, open the hood! Just look at how nice everything is under here! The engine's condition more than keeps up with the condition of the rest of the car! This engine is spotless! You'll be very pleased with the engine's condition. It was very well kept and is well on its way to giving you a lifetime of quality service! These engines are rated to last well over 500,000 miles with proper care! This car has still got plenty of miles left in it. If this car's overall condition doesn't show you this car has been taken care of I don't know what else will! The timing belt was replaced at 46,994 miles! This is the highly desired 2.5 liter 6-Cylinder engine. In addition to providing world-class reliability, this car features great gas mileage. These are very rewarding cars to drive and maintain, and their owners tend to be fanatical about them - often posting thorough and informative Internet sites about maintenance tips and tricks. A person armed with so much reference and the widely available stream of new and used parts can maintain one of these these cars very inexpensively and with much satisfaction. This is an engine that you would be proud to call your own! You won't believe how nice this car is! Just look at this beauty! It's very hard to find these BMW convertibles on the open market because most Mercedes-Benz enthusiasts are getting these cars with no intention of letting them go. I firmly believe you'll never get another chance to get one this good!
