98' 318ti, 113k, 5 speed, $5700 /bo

[Carstereopro]

I bought this car June 05.

Drove it home from Providence, RI and was intending on using it as my M3 engine/drivetrain/suspension recipient to replace my totalled 97 "330ti".

PLEASE NOTE, CAR IS COMPLETELY STOCK!!!

When I bought it my autobody guy said it needed $1000-1500 in body work to be perfect, and I new it needed a clutch, and other minor work.

I registered it, and it failed inspection due to the "emission pump". I paid $450 or so for a new pump, and then I ended up parking it.

I took it off the road two weeks later (after putting roughly 60 miles on it since the purchase), and its been sitting since.

It's burned through 1 1/2 tanks of gas since from periodic starting and driving around the block.

I just had a new battery, a Brand new clutch, Slave Cylinder, Throw-out bearing, both front ball joints installed.

Body is fair, dings, small dents, and scratches are visible and on the car. The hood, pillars, roof and rear bumper are in very good shape.

Here's the details:
* Black Exterior in fair shape
* 113k miles
* Dove Gray & white interior in great condition
* 3 owner car
* all maintenence done by dealer, with ALL records from previous 2 owners since new.
* 1.9l engine
* 5 speed
* Power Moonroof
* Factory alarm w/ Keyless entry
* PW, PL, AC, PS, rear defrost
* NEW CLUTCH
* NEW SLAVE CYLINDER
* NEW Emission pump
* NEW Ball Joints
* NEW Battery

Also have the following parts up for negotiation on the price of the car:
* 4 - 17" OEM Staggered M3 Lightweights, 2 need refinishing and need tires
* 4 - 17" OEM Split 10 spoke M3 Motorsport I wheels (from 95' m3) 2 need refinishing, need tires
* 4 - 18" Privat Farhen's (centers mint, lips need to be re-polished) w/ 225/40-18 Nitto NT555 w/ good tread (seen on my 330ti in my sig pic)
* 4 - 15" bottlecaps (need to be cleaned) no tires (free with car purchase)
* 15" stock steel wheel if just want to replace bent wheel (free with car purchase)
* new in box Sony CDX-GT500 cd player, Various amplifiers & subwoofers + install
* Titanium tunable Evotion Muffler welded onto flange with OEM cat back exhaust pipes. Bolt on fitment for "aggressive" exhaust sound.
* 6000k/8000k HID set for low beams New in Box!

If you're looking for a fair priced commuter car that'll get 30+mpg, here it is.

Looking for $5995 or b/o (just spent $1750 for parts & service above)
It was previously listed for $4750 before repairs were made. (I'm into the car for about $7500 between purchase and repairs, and have put less than 60 miles on it)

Other parts are negotiable. Car can be seen late afternoons and weekends in Lowell, Ma, 20 miles north of Boston.

I may be interested.. but it depends on what my insurance company does with my current car.

Last Bump.

If it doesn't sell in a week, I'm giving it to my wife and selling her Volvo.

Frankly, I think that should have been your plan from Day 1. ;-)

Seriously though... do you have pix and/or prices for the 17" wheels?? I'm doing some last minute shopping for 17's before I buy 16" tires.

Hmmm... now that I think about it... if you really want to sell that 318ti faster, you should buy my chrome wheels to put on it!!! ;-)
