2.8L I6, AUTO TRANS, 110K MILES, WHITE OUTSIDE, BEIGE INSIDE.
VIN:WBABG2328VET34815
I have recently put over $3000 into this car, within the last 5000 miles. I replaced the brake pads and rotors with new brembo pads and rotors, professionally installed. I also had, when I received the car, multiple check engine codes. All but one of which have been fixed. The vacuum system had a leak which I had fixed by a BMW dealer, and I had the radiator replaced by the same dealer with an OEM radiator, so it is now covered under BMW warranty. These are common e36 (92-98 3 series) issues and if your looking at one with over 100k miles you will want this work to be already done. The check engine light is still on, because one of the post-cat o2 sensor needs to be replaced. I had this diagnosed by the same bmw dealer that did the rest of the work, but feel free to have it diagnosed again to verify.
I have also had high quality dark tints professionally installed by a tint shop, they make the car look great and give you a sense of privacy on the roads. I also put in a low output audio out in the trunk, at the amp, for installing aftermarket audio equipment, while keeping the stock tape/6cd changer. The car has the Harmon Kardon audio option, which sounds great. Two of the 6 speakers need replacement and have hence been disconnected to avoid audio distortion, still sounds great with just the 4 speakers.
Clean carfax, I am the second owner. The first owner was an older guy who used it for business and put nothing but highway miles on it, my miles have been the same.
While this car is in fantastic shape for the most part, I am considering it slightly above kelly blue books "fair" condition because of the following issues:
* The tires should be replace because of dry rot and wear.
* Pin hole leak in power steering, needs a refill every 2-3 weeks (another common e36 issue)
Please, come and see the vehicle before purchasing. You dont have to, but I would prefer that you see and drive the car before any deals are made to avoid any misunderstandings or issues - I want both partys to be happy with the deal. Thanks and good luck!
I am literally only getting rid of this car to get ANOTHER e36, but an M3 this time.
Feel free to call me with any questions, 2038565816.

Ill drive it to your door for the cost of gas, a plane ticket back, and a ride to the train station.
