DESCRIPTION:
The car is a 1997 BMW 318ti Alaska blue with a complete S52 swap out of '98 M3 5 speed G-trag, 3.2 Vanos with a Dinan carbon fiber cold air intake and Dinan chip, 83k miles on the swap, M3 front brakes and rear M3 calipers, M3 lowering spings, M3 17" contour's stagered with good rubber on them, stock exhaust but from the midd pipes it's a dual 21/2 to a rear vibrant muffler, headliner has been redone in black suede, it has the M-tech package.

Everything works just fine, a/c is nice and cold and it's a blast to drive very fast and really quick light to light since it still has the 318ti rear end (close gear ratio) I just bought the car about a month ago but I need a truck for work and I rather keep my AE86 than this.
Looking to trade for a Ford F-250 or any other truck or just sell it for $9k obo

neat headliner. thats a good idea for all those sagging ones :)

good luck on the sale. great car.

trade mine for yours?

Sorry, only trades will be for a truck.

I have an 88 Suburban I need to find a new home for... and I am near by!

my dad has a 90s S10 he is trying to sell. 5 speed

Thanks but I need a pick up.

I really need a bigger truck (p/u) like a Tundra,F-250,F-350 something that size.

but thanks for the offer

man i would love to get this off your hands!

I wish I had 9k

do you know what shop/person did the swap?
Do you have documentation of the work done?
More pics of the interior/dash/rearhatch/rear exterior would be great.

email sent

sold?

I saw the completed listing on ebay so I emailed him the other day and it is indeed sold. Someone got a good deal it looks like. Maybe they will join or already joined.

In fact I have already joined, anyway, the car is in the Chicagoland area now having some work done, the car was no where near perfect or even very good condition, the engine and transmission ran great, the m3 brakes worked very good, clutch is very good, the body and interior had most of the issues, here is what i found:

1. Glove box has plastic tab broken so it doesnt stay in place.
2. Both A pillars were removed to redo the interior roof carpeting and whoever took them off broke all tabs so they dont stay in place.
3. Rear bumper had significant sun damage, to the point the clear coat was non existant.
4. Rear windshiled wiper does not squirt fluid.
5. There is a leak in the windshield wiper lines.
6. All wipers are shot.
7. The front headlights are really foggy on the inside.
8. Body had several scratches and scuffs.
9. Ignition problem, wouldn't start car.
10. Had a few sqeaking and rattling noises form other broken tabs on the interior, such as the plastic rope for the back deck over the hatch area.
11. Some speakers either don't work at all or are blown.
12. Not only did the car need an alignment as advertised but there was also a bad steering column coupling that made the steering wheel really sloppy.
13. Was missing some interior plastic pieces such as the covers to cover the seat belt bolts.
14. A few other things as i am not finished checking everything as i am fixing and replacing things in the process.

On another note the guy that sold the car (Andy) was very nice and knowledgable about the car, I wasn't expecting to get a 12 year old car in perfect condition and sale is as is as shown, i don't hold anything against him, he could have pointed out a few other things but i guess he probably didn't even know since he didn't really drive it much, and had it for a short time. Thanks to Andy and his wife for picking us up to meet up with them, after those damn cabbies took me and my buddy that i came with for a ride!. The car drove nicely from Florida to Illonois with no problems whatsoever other then what i listed above. And believe me it was very hard to keep my foot off of the gas pedal. Got pulled over in Florida right off the bat, but the trooper let me go.
