$10,900


Its time to sell my car. I am the third owner. I bought it from NickC here on the forums when it had 69,000 about 2 years ago. He bought it with 28,000 miles. The car currently has 98,000. It runs excellent. The only things I've had to do are oil changes and a coil pack. The whole subframe was completely taken out and redone about a year and a half ago. It is much stronger than before. We used 2x3 boxed steel as a new crossmember to weld the differential mount to.

The car has a few things done to it. When I got it, the chrome wheels were in terrible condition. Recently, I sanded them down and had them redone in a satin black. The car also has Magnaflow exhausts, Umnitza DDE's, 4600k HID's out of an e46 M3 with Bi-Xenon projectors, Cosmos CAI, Shark injector, H&R Sports, OEM clears all the way around. The car had Koni yellows on it, but I got an offer on them so I sold them. There are now stock shocks on the car, which should be replaced sometime soon.

I would give the overall condition of the car about an 8.5 or 9. The hard top is in awesome shape and looks great on the car. The soft top is in great shape because I never used it. The paint on the car looks great. It got Meguiars polish and PSII wax. There is a small dent in between the left right kidney grill and Roundel. The car had 3M stoneguards on for a long time on the rear fenders, but I recently took them off, so they are in good condition as well.

The interior is in great shape. Everything works well, including the electric soft top. There is some wear on the driver's side bolsters, but not much. The passenger seat is perfect. The carpets are mats are in great condition. The plastic seatbelt brackets are broken, but it's hard to find an e36/7 with good ones.

The tires are in good shape. They are 235/40/17's on front and 275/40/17's out back. The tires are Kumho MX's.


All in all, I think the car is well worth the price, especially considering it has a hardtop. I have seen comparable cars sell for the same or more without a hardtop. I just really need to sell the car to pay for school.

NO TRADES
MUST SELL
you will not find another roadster this nice with a hardtop for this price

Bump for a great car and a bad ass deal.

some lady pulled out of a parallel parking spot and I hit her bumper. That is what the dent is from by the roundel. But the front bumper does not sag.

I am kinda feeling your car. Exactly as is, the price is decent too. I'm a little curious about the frame issues, was it a major accident?

If i can sell my 97 E36 M3, i'll fly out there and pick it up. Drop me an email
