s52 & ///M swapped 95 Ti 9k OBO
 

Ok so here it is. My 95 318ti is up for sale I dont drive it much since I have a company vehicle and I think I want to start on a new project.

Alot of people ask if this car has a rebuilt title. It does NOT have a rebuilt title. Title is clear.

There is so much that went into this car and so much to list that I GAURANTEE I will miss something but I will do my best.

The car originally started life as a shell it was hit in the front and the PO started to part it out so it was literally a chassis. It had been repainted hellrot by the previous owner and was already a 5 speed it was perfect for the build.

So I took it to one of the local shops in my area who are known to specialize in Euro's and especially BMW's. I wanted it to literally be a mini M3. This Ti is literally one of the cleanest Ti I have ever seen. Keep in mind this is NOT a show car it has minor chips and dings like any other daily driven 15 year old car.

lots of people ask who did the work and some specific and technical questions that I can only answer to the best of my knowledge since I only pretend to be a mechanic. I called them and they were more than willing to answer any specific question anybody might have. Here is a link with their info http://www.moonlitemotorwerks.com/service

Beautiful, if I was not in the middle of such a mess and had an idea of what my life will be next week I would ride up and have a look...NICE!!!!

how much are you asking for it?

An excellent example of a well sorted swapped Ti, one of the best seen on this site. 9k seems like a very realistic asking price for this car and if it drives as well as it looks in these pics someone will be getting an excellent deal.
What else could anyone buy at this price that provides the same looks, performance and utility?

Does the shell have any rust?

Thanks for the compliment!
the price is in the title of the thread. I'm asking 9k OBO.

thank you sir. I was concerned about my asking price I wasnt sure if I went too high or too low. Theres not many other examples out there to compare to.

No rust.

Sexy!! Didn't know you were right down the road from me. I think your price is great for such a clean example. GLWS

Pmed you

Wow....still have it! I love this car...

thanks man!

thanks for the compliments!

I dont even think I got an offer yet from a Ti specific site. I would honestly love to see this car go to another 318 enthusiast. Anybody even have any interesting trades? I would like to get into a4 next pref a b6.

this is beautiful! if i had the money i'd get it. at least i have a ti though ;)

up

Awesome car! If we had a car or two less it would be easy to bring it home. Are you interested in any trades?

what you have in mind for trade? contact me privately

I can co-sign this. The car is amazing and runs like a champ. If you're in the market then pick this up cause you can't build a beast like that for 9k

I second that, I saw the car in person too at Moonlite Motorwerks!!! GLWS!!

It is the same price range as an actual E36 M3. Although, at 9k you will be taking a gamble on the quality of the M3. If you can find the good deals, you can find one that has the maintenance stuff taken care of at the same price, but I'm willing to guess that most M3's at this price point may not have the same level of maintenance done to them.

I just saw a local 98 M3 with 80k miles for $8,999. Of course, it has a CEL illuminated in one of the pictures, and the car is running, 800RPM on the tach. So if somebody doesn't understand what all of the little maintenance items add up to, they may think the price is steep.

E36 values are taking a beating here recently. 325 and 328's are not really even worth that much more than 5 or 6k, and they have to be pristine at that cost. Pretty much means that for a nice car that is well maintained, you have to hold out for the enthusiast buyer that understands the maintenance record.
