This is mine. I am in Austin. The below is from my CL ad. PM me with questions. CL price is $3900, but the cut to the chase, no haggle, bottom line price for members is $3400.

This is a 1996 TEXAS BMW 318ti purchased at Roger Beasley BMW (now BMW of Austin) and has been maintained by myself, the dealer, Black Forest Werkshop & Lone Star Autowerks in Georgetown, TX. I even have the original window sticker.

Reason for sale: I recently bought back my 1st gen Toyota 4runner and have decided to make this my daily driver. I would hope that it find a new home with BMW enthusiast. At 183K miles it's "nicely broken in" as BMW owners understand. This is for the person who values style, but wants to do so in an economical and responsible manner.

This car has is a great daily driver. It's got some minor beauty spots. I would say the condition is very good. It is 15 years old. Seats have NO wear, no rips or tears or stains-- awesome material. Adult owned and driven. Parts for this car a in plentiful abundance and easy to find. I use only German OEM parts and Castrol 20/50 oil--it's Texas folks and 10/30 can't hang.
