This UNIQUE AND ONE OF A KIND collectors BMW was manufactured and assembled in Germany for the Italian market. Research reveals this is one of only 3-4 in the USA. The closest equivalent of this car in the states is the 4 cylinder 1.9 liter, 139 bhp 318ti, but THIS in-line 6 cylinder 323ti is a different animal completely. Asking $9,900 or best reasonable offer. I just purchased a very low mileage E34 540i/6 and own four E28s, so unfortunately the 323ti is up for sale.

It was imported into Baltimore and spent its US time in Maryland, and according to the previous owner, it was owned by the daughter of a celebrity in Washington DC.

This is the rarest and most sought after of the E36 318 lineup by enthusiasts, being the lightest, fastest and best handling. Basically a truncated hatch-back version of a 3-series, E-36 platform.

Lots of ti enthusiasts make engine transplants on these cars. This one is the real thing, with all the bells and whistles, fast, reliable, beautiful.

Similar suspension geometry to the Z3, M Coupe and M Roadster. Body Style: Hatchback, Exterior Color: Silver, Interior Color: Black,

Condition: Very good

Engine: Inline 6 Cylinder, 2.5 liter, 170 hp Transmission: 5 Speed Manual.

Features:

Premium Sound System with CD Player, Tinted Dual Power Windows, Power Locks, Power Mirrors, Sunroof, Dual Power Seats, Side-Impact Airbags, Traction Control, AC, 16 Inch Sport Edition Wheels style 45 wheels with wide 225-50-17 tires, ABS, Traction Control, Fog-lights, Parktronic Yes, Parktronic this is not a Misprint, auto dim mirror, factory chrome trim (only available for the 323ti), side airbags (only available for the 323ti), M steering wheel, electric seats (only available on the 323ti), halo headlights, and I am including the OEM headlights in perfect condition, and these are adjusted from the inside of the car, electrically. Cruise control, fog lamps, all lights work. Sunvisors with mirrors and light (only available on 323ti) There is a lot more.

This car has a new clutch, no leaks or smoke or any other problems. Drives absolutely new, rare and very desirable. The 318 version has the battery in the engine conversion. This one has it in the rear, along with the tools, and the spare tire goes underneath the car. The exhaust sound is just awesome. Very, very responsive and quick, great handling, not a vibration or pull. Ice cold A/C. NO RUST, all original paint, front custom bumper valance, front euro OEM license plate holder, covered by an EU plate. Taillights and fender markers are OEM European, clear, not amber. Rear OEM spoiler. Back up sensors. The cluster was converted to miles, with an US speedo in miles. Odometer still measures in kilometers, and the original cluster is included. Also, included are the original adjustable headlights. I just ordered from Europe, the OEM BMW roof rack. The sunroof works perfect, new wiper arms and blades. Expect minor imperfections consistent with the age of the car.

Here are the specs from the vin check:

Where is the battery? It looks like the secondary air motor is where the battery would be in a 318TI....as was the case on 328's. But those cars had them in the back.

The battery is located in the back as well.

Sorry, I know it is beside the point of this thread, but where are they hiding it in the back?

Hi - i just saw this (and am new) and have a few questions:
-How is it as a daily driver?
-How is it to get repairs done?
-Mileage is in KM?
-is the trunk clear or does the sound system take up most of the room there?

Thanks!

Can't speak for the owner but looking at the cluster, it shows MPH.
Repairs would be no different than any other car.

Can't see why it wouldn't be a good daily driver.
They were popular in Europe.

No longer for sale.

The old lady drove it and fell in love. So, it is staying in the family for now:-)

Thanks, for all the interest...

Back on the market!

My wife just acquired a low mileage E36 convertible, so the 323ti is up for sale. As info, I purchased a staggered set of 17" Contour wheels and have a nice set of Michelin Pilots to install on them. We can negotiate with or without the wheels. Figure I would try selling it here before listing it on eBay.

Best,

Alex

Out of curiosity, how is this road legal if it's below the 25 year import ban?
