Default FS 1996 318ti California Edition

I have this car for sale at home but I thought Id also post it here in case there is anyone in the area who may be looking for a 318ti. My other MacBook's hard drive crashed and I lost pretty much all my pictures of the car but I will post what I have. The car is different than it appears in the pictures, it has been returned to stock to some extent. Anything I do not post below is no longer on the car. Here is some info on the car-

Year: 1996

318ti California Edition

Mileage: Approx. 133,XXX

Transmission: Automatic

Price: $4,250 OBO

Condition: Overall this car has been well cared for but it has been a daily driver in Iowa for a number of years, it is not perfect. It was first ordered by a man in Florida before he ended up trading it into the BMW dealership in Davenport, Iowa with a blown water pump. It was picked up by the head mechanic at the dealership and was fixed and serviced by him and served as his daily driver for some time after that. I bought the car from him in 2005 and the same mechanic has serviced it since then, always using original BMW parts and Mobil1 synthetic oil. There are minor rust spots on the rear passenger side wheel well and also on the drivers side quarter panel a few inches behind the door. These both appear to be surface rust spots. Other than this there are a few minor dents, scratches and imperfections in the paint but nothing major. On the interior there is a hole in the drivers seat bolster, wear at the top of the steering wheel and cuts (which have been fixed but still visible) in the door panels from the original owner attempting to change the speakers. The rear seats are flawless. The California roof is in great condition and was recently conditioned. All the electronics work flawlessly and the A/C blows cold.

Modifications: OEM VW lip spoiler on the front bumper, wide-style black out grills, Kenwood CD player, 15% tint all around (excluding windshield) and OEM staggered DSIIs with Pirelli PZero Rosso's. The car also includes the stock 15 in. 5 spokes with Blizzak ice and snow tires on them.

If interested please email me at SDKmann@aol.com.
