The bad

It has a hot start issue

Car leaks alittle oil, Looks like its coming from front cover its common on M42's

Ac doesn't work

Cracked dash

Has a few dents on the car but if someone buys it i can get them taken out for 100 bucks at the dealership.

ODO doesn't work stopped at 179ish.

Looking to get $4,500 without the K1's or $5,500 with the K1's, (tires have less then 3k on them.)

MINT Basketweaves will come on car for 4,500 but they will need tires asap.

Why are you selling it Justin?

I want it. But I have no money. And I love those headlights, what happened to them?

And Dave, mint 318is's go for around 5 now. People want the original car, along with the decent gas mileage.

THANK YOU! Im glad that someone sees the market for e30's going up. I mean between me and Dom we have looked at A LOT of e30's and some of these people want crazy money for rust buckets etc. I think what i am asking is a fair price, i payed more then $4,500 for the car and had to drive to NC to get it. E30's are getting rarer and rarer everyday, its hard to believe but they are becoming collector cars.

The headlights i gave to Jason for some wheels to drift on lol! If he's not using them he might sell them to you.

Sorry guys, I don't see it, but if you say so, I believe you. I'm not trying to argue the fact that the price is going up, or whatever, I'm just saying I don't get why. It's a decent car, but a 5 thousand dollar car it is not.

You'll probably sell it to someone who really wants it and is willing to pay the 5k or 4500, but to be honest, they aren't getting their money's worth out of the car.

But okay . . .

That's what I just said . . .you just reworded it, thanks for the philosophical insight, Socratese.

I just said I don't get it, but I moved on by throwing in the phrase "but okay", I'm not here to argue with a bunch of BMW owners and fanboys on a BMW forum. That's not my place. . .

Whatever . . .

The asking price is not bad but while I am a big BMW and e30 fan I believe the e30 market to be artificially inflated like the housing market was.

Yes there aren't THAT many 318iS for sale but damn there are A LOT of 3000 and less 325iS small bumpers for sale on craigslist. Many in GREAT condition with 100,000-150,000mi. There are even STEALS out there and owners going off KBB.com that says the car is worth 1500 dollars.

It is funny to see people listing e30's for sale on random BMW forums with outrageous pricing.

I hate to sound like I am crapping on your thread. I am not.

Justin
10-27-2008, 02:48 PM
OK well this is just a feeler as the title states im not 100% ready to sell it yet.
If you dont have anything good to say then leave it out of this thread, if you want to make another thread about how the prices of E30's are crazy then do that! All i ask is that you respect my price, if i dont get what i am asking for it then i will lower it later.

Thanks
Justin

Ok everyone, there is no need to hammer away at Justin for his asking price. Honestly, the excellent E30s are going up in value. I'd still love to have one. Justin has a nice car and I think it is worth his asking price.

I have no comment for those who spend $45k on a honda minivan, except they are stupid.

I bet my 2004 has had more time sitting outside of a garage than that 318is. That car is super clean and nice.

As I said. I am not insulting your asking price. It is in the ballpark of fair.

You are looking at a 5,000 dollar e30 if you fix the issues it has. Most people don't want to buy a leaking car. That is just a big turn off. The hot issue is going to be an issue on a test drive. I had the same issue on the 325i. Needs injectors.

Also since I am kind of interested. What happened to the rear suspension? Previous owner pics there is zero rake and the car looks level and slammed. Side shot that I took the back is a good 1 to 1.5 inches higher.

Remember guys, this a E30 CSL. You hardly ever see a E30 with no sunroof. Ive seen them go for 4k stock. What Justin has is a great deal...

Look at the tire profiles! Right after i got the car i put new tires on. For some reason he had bigger tires up front..... I just had the front springs off to do the top hats and they have not been cut and the back still has Bav auto springs. So it has to be because of the tires or the pic angles he used. Or he changed the springs.

This pic has the same tires on it as when i bought it.

I am talking wheel well gap. That is creating the rake.

Did you put back in different rear spring pads or anything? New shocks? Different shocks?

EDIT: Just so the Bimmer Boys don't get mad, I was going to take a picture of my Mustang and caption "Invisable Build Quality" or something like that . . . but that's definitely a joke only car-guys would get. LOL! I could also, in that essence, take a picture of an M5 and say "Invisable Gas Mileage" ROFLMAO!

That sucks, that is way too early. And too far of a drive. You should get a 335d to save on gas. :001_tongue:

And I think you might be on to something with those pictures. I will try and see if I can think of anything else.
