This 1988 BMW 325i sedan was registered in Florida, Texas, and Mississippi before it was acquired in 2020 by the seller, who reports it was retrofitted in 2021 with a five-speed manual transaxle as well as a Turbonetics T4 turbocharger for its 2.5-liter M20 inline-six. Work in 2024 involved a repaint, refreshing its suspension, overhauling its air conditioning, and installing a 3.64:1 Torsen differential. The car is finished in Bronze Beige over beige upholstery, and it also has an M Tech II-style steering wheel and body kit, CXRacing coilovers, BBS-replica 16″ wheels, a 3″ exhaust system with a Borla muffler, and a pop-out 7″ touchscreen. This E30 sedan shows 129k miles and is offered at no reserve with a clean Carfax report and a bonded Texas title in the seller’s name.
M-Technic II-style bumper covers and E36-specification side skirts were installed before the body was refinished in 2024, and ceramic coating was applied. Tinted windows and a raised rear spoiler are additional elements.
BBS-style 16″ replica wheels are mounted with 205/45 Ironman tires. A remanufactured Z3-specification steering rack is said to have been installed under current ownership, and CXRacing adjustable coilovers are noted along with cross-drilled brake rotors, ceramic pads, and replacement lines. Reported June 2024 suspension work included replacing wheel bearings, control arms, tie rods, and bushings.
The front seats are re-covered in beige upholstery over color-keyed carpets, and the cabin has power windows, an electric sunroof, an onboard computer, and a pop-out 7″ touchscreen with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto connectivity. The seller reports a Sanden air conditioning compressor was installed in June 2024, at which time the system’s high- and low-pressure hoses, condenser, expansion valve, and evaporator core were replaced.
An M-Tech II steering wheel frames the instrument cluster, and auxiliary gauges are fitted in climate control vents to the left and right. The six-digit odometer shows 129k miles, approximately 6k of which were added by the seller.
The oil pump and water pump were replaced in 2021 when the T4 turbocharger was added to the car’s 2.5-liter M20 inline-six according to the seller, who states the thermostat was replaced along with engine seals in 2023, while the battery was replaced in June 2024. The following components are also reported:
- ECUMaster EMU Black engine control unit
- Turbosmart Wastegate
- Silicone boost hoses
- ARP head studs
- Deka 60lb/hr fuel injectors
- Mishimoto Radiator
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transmission and a 3.64:1 Torsen differential that was installed in 2024, per the seller, who adds that a tubular header was mated to a custom downpipe and a 3″ exhaust system with a Borla muffler in 2021.
