Car Mike's Place is proud to offer this 1998 BMW 328ic Convertible with only 53k original miles. The car is Triple Black with the hard to find 5 Speed Transmission. The vehicle history report shows the mileage as accurate with absolutely no accidents reported. The title is 100% clean. This is a one owner car and has spent its entire life here in southern California. This is also a rust free California car. Many vehicles from other states experience a rather hard life dealing with harsh weather conditions. Rain, snow, hail, salt roads and cold weather cause all kinds of issues both mechanically and cosmetically. So a California car may appeal to you. The interior is in really nice condition. The seats look great with no rips or tears. Both seats are power. The dash is in nice shape. All the gauges seem to function properly and the digital display looks great. Even the check control display looks good. There are no check engine light or warning lights on of any kind. I tried all the buttons located on the dash and door panels and everything seemed to function properly. The air conditioning blows ice cold and the heater works. The door panels are all in good shape and all the power windows work. The convertible top works as well. This has the Harmon Kardon sound system as well. The exterior of the car is black with a black top. The body is straight and dent free. This is a rust free California car. Both bumpers look nice and straight as well. The paint looks good for its age. It has factory BMW wheels. All four tires are matching. The rear tires have about 80% tread and the front around 40%. Please check out the pictures to see condition of rims and tires. All the glass is in good shape with no visible cracks. The top looks good. This car has a sweet little motor. It also has the 5 speed transmission. If you are looking for a reliable daily driver, this combination is tough to beat. The engine runs strong and the transmission shifts nicely through all the gears. Please look at all the pictures and keep in mind that this is not a brand new car. Normal wear is to be expected. There will be a $55 doc fee and a $95 auction services fee added to the winning bid. There is no exceptions. California residents will also be charged sales tax, registration and smog fees. We require a $250 deposit within 24 hours via paypal, bankwire or cash in person. The balance must be paid within 7 days via cashiers check, bankwire or cash in person.

Our location gives us the ability to offer customers across the country the opportunity to buy a California car from a trusted online seller. Why is a California car desirable? Harsh weather conditions cause all sorts of problems, both seen and unseen. In some states, finding cars buried under a pile of snow is common. Things such as salty roads, snow, ice and rain will cause rust and excessive wear on your cars metal components. Cold weather can also cause many problems with today's engines and electrical components. Looking for a convertible? Convertibles in many states will often sit for months at a time. California cars are driven and maintained year round. Looking for a 4x4 or AWD vehicle? These types of vehicles have very hard lives in some states. Harsh weather conditions not only create problems with how your car operates, it will also effect your cars appearance. It might be from salt, snow, rain, hail, rocks, potholes and floods or from something as simple as muddy shoes or wet clothes. The reasons for considering a California car can go on and on. This is where we step in. We sell about 80% of our cars to out of state buyers. We can create a simple buying experience and can help have your new car delivered right to your front door. If you want to fly in, we are located just minutes away from Orange County/Santa Ana Airport. We would be more than happy to shuttle you to our facility. Thank you for visiting our website and we look forward to making your next purchase as simple as possible.
