Vehicle Detail
For sale is my 1998 BMW 328i Auto with leather seats, and premium package heated seats in the front. The Good. Motor runs great (after a 15 - 30 second slightly rough startup /idle, which is common on these cars the e36). Newer brakes with centric rotors and akebono ceramic pads with less then 15 thousand miles on them. Doesn't leak oil (got the only oil leak fixed which was the oil filter housing gasket). Rear seats in Good condition, front passenger seat in Okay condition and drivers seat need to be repairs or recovered. Transmission shifts fine for a transmission of this age, slight delay from 2nd to 3rd but nothing to write home about. Newer tires with only 30k miles on 60k life tires with plenty of tread left. Engine pulls strong with no hiccups. A/C blows ICE COLD. Recently replaced Spark plugs, lower mileage coil packs, lower mileage secondary vacuum pump. This car has been rock solid reliable for me and has taken me on many vacations Good condition M3 Exhaust installed Short ram intake with heat shield. 5000k 55W HID's installed European Glass DEPO headlights installed (passenger side lense has a crack from rocks but does not leak). The bad. car was recently hit from the side on the last 2 feet of the passenger rear quarter panel. The entire back is damaged however the bumper is in great shape! (not show in pictures, was in someone's trunkat the time. The car still drives normally and tracks straight and true. No drive train damage, no differential damage and the exhaust system is untouched. Car is completely DRIVABLE just not very pretty to look at . I cannot afford to fix this car right now but it seems like the car could be fixed or if not could definitely part out a lot of the car yourself. I just do not have the garage space to do so. The odometer reads 247k however the previous owner replaced the gauge cluster before I bought the car and the last carfax report showed 166k miles total. I would estimate that the car is around 200k total miles. Since the car is driveable (needs to be jumped off) I will not be shipping this vehicle. Buyer must pay with CASH ONLY and deposit through paypal. You must come GET the car, it is driveable or you can trailer it whatever works for you the best. The front bumper shock is compressed (not the missing trim piece in the pictures). I have the missing trim piece in the car and the front bumper is in okay condition. It has a slight crack on the bottom from a road object. Also on the front bumper the paint is peeling on the driver side from a bad tape job during painting. The nose panel is a little compressed under the passenger side head lamp housing as viewable in the pictures.
