well thanks, yeah i remember that fender rolling party that didn't work out. Well i haven't really had many bites on the car so if i don't get much interest i'll be keepin it. I just thought hey if i can get a good price then why not go for an M.

Ben, if I were you, I'd return it to stock, and list it for 6,500, put amber corners and stock suspension back on and stock wheels.

It will sell, people tend to stay away from modded rigs. Try listing it on bmw cca forums.

there are different types of buyers out there. if it's nicely modded, it will sell for a higher price than its stock counterpart. the definition of "nicely" is very subjective, but there is probably somebody out there whose definition matches yours... so if you're not in a hurry, just keep it up on craigslist and on the forums (definitely bmwcca) and something might come up.

selling my 328 and buying an m3 was one of the better decisions i've made in my car history so far. but i had a low-mileage (76k) slightly modified 328is in perfect condition, so i sold it for a lot of money and got a higher-mileage m3 for about the same amount. since your 328 is on the higher end of the mileage spectrum, you won't be able to get an m3 straight up, but if you plan on modding the 328 even more, the money is better spent towards an m3. the 328 needs a lot of money put into it to reach m3 levels of power, handling & durability (a lot of the suspension components on the m3 are reinforced whereas those of the 3-series are not). so money-wise if you need to decide between spending 3k on upgrades for the 328 vs. spending 3k to upgrade to an m3, definitely choose the latter. i know 3k sounds like a lot of money but if you keep track of every single expense/upgrade, you'll notice you'll go through 3k in no time.
just my 2 cents ;)

thanks for the input guys i'll definitely take all that into consideration. I'm very back and forth about selling it or not, so if I really decide to go for it, i'll revert it completely back to stock and sell for cheaper. thanks again

Asking price is on the ad $8500, which is negotiable. We can also negotiate what parts will be sold with the car and what parts will be taken off.

I will for sure be taking off the exhaust, x-brace, UUC shift nob, and the wheels we can talk about.

Why are you taking the exhaust off? and the ad is expired.

oh sorry, I'll be transferring the exhaust to my next purchase :devillook
