View Full Version : FS: 97 328is w/ tasteful mods

Up for sale is my 97 328is 5 speed with 119k on it. The car is silver with black interior and i have taken very good care of it in the year and a half I have owned it.

The interior has the typical wear on the seats, but overall it is in good condition. The exterior has a few blemishes and a couple dings, but most noticeable is the scratches on the front bumper.

Mods:

Ground Control Coilovers 440/500 with top adjust in the back and GC rsm's
BBS LM reps from modbargains
Kumho Ecsta SPT 225/40 all around with less than 2k miles on them
Depos with Apexcone 6000k Hid and projector mod
Ecis Intake
Oe Titanium Shift knob
Clears all around

I also have the stock headlights along with the stock wheels and suspension. I would like to sell the car with the current wheels, and if so I would make a very good deal for the buyer to take the stock wheels. As for the suspension, I have someone who is very interested in buying it, and the car may come with the stock suspension.

I have been using Royal purple 10-40 for the last 6 months, and I will have new in before I sell the car. The battery was also replaced within the last 8 months. One of the sideskirt clips is broken on the driver side, which I will replace before I sell it.

With the current mods, I would like to get 9000, but i am open to reasonable offers, and I'm willing to switch out to the stock parts if thats what it takes. The depos are not pictured here, and interior pictures will be uploaded later today.

Nice car and don't want to shit on your thread, but it's common now to find M3s with about the same mileage for around 10-12k.. might want to consider something a bit lower to help move it.

yes, im well aware of the market price. the price is higher right now because of the mods and this being a forum of enthusiasts who will appreciate the mods done, but the price will be adjusted as some of the mods probably wont be sold with the car.

No it's definitely the alternator. It's died more than once and as jon said we've tested the connections, and the alternator, but i found a used one on ebay for $40 so no big deal.
