98' BMW 3-SERIES 318 TI 318TI HATCHBACK in excellent if not near perfect condition, tranny shifts smooth, engine purrs like a kitten, vehicle runs and drives great, no codes or warning lights!!! The rare white/black color combo is super rare, and looks great especially in person. $149K on the clock, but engine and cooling system has just been completely overhauled.

The much sought after compact, that gets outstanding fuel economy, vehicle body is in excellent condition, 9.5 out of 10 if not better, never repaired or painted, no accidents, white color all original body and paint, no faded clear coat anywhere, carfax confirms this, as it does maintenance and oil changes, all panels still have bmw identification. New radiator, water pump, thermostat and housing and new rear coolant connector, new side coolant connector have been installed amongst many other new parts and hoses, these tend to fail around 100-150k miles normally so it's regular maintenance, also OEM blue BMW coolant has been refilled.

Vehicle has new all season m+s tires, new starter, new serpentine belts, new hatch lifts, new hood lifts, new front struts, both left and right, etc. New front brake pads and rotors, and wheel speed sensors. Interior is super clean, no rust anywhere on exterior or under carridge. You can tell this E36/5 series BMW has always been cared for, garaged and washed. Light tan leather seats, power locks and windows, cruise control, moonroof (sunroof), alarm, pre-wired for bmw cd changer. Has new bmw emblems, radio antenna, rubber grommets here and there such as the antenna one, trim pieces here and there, nothing has been overlooked, new windshield cowl pieces, no matter how small.

Engine has been completely rebuilt and overhauled, cylinder head has been magnafluxed, milled, and rebuilt, new seals, valve job, lifters, etc, and has been reinstalled on engine. Engine has new OEM pistons, premium piston rings and rod bearings, all gaskets including head gasket, OEM BMW parts used anywhere where possible or oem supplier, valve cover and upper intake have been cleaned and powder coated OEM silver color, all parts are there, all parts were cleaned. Vehicle starts, runs and drives great, but I need it out of my garage asap! Fully synthetic oil and premium oil filter, air filter, etc. You can have a great condition BMW here, lots of new parts and money dumped into it already, any and all proper maintenance has been performed. This is probably the nicest BMW for sale in a while in the Chicago land area. Also has new oem bosch plug wires and spark plugs, and I just did the oil filter housing repair with new gasket and new bushing with new o-rings. I also have the new clamp installed on the exhaust, the one that rusts out, asking a more then reasonable $3,300 for it.

I have owned and worked on some great condition ti's, body wise this is one of the nicest ones I've ever seen, absolutely no rust inside or out, Clean and clear Illinois title in hand for a quick cash sale. Come and get it !!!
