Well, the time has come for me to upgrade. I am unable to rock the 318i with the family any more. It is time for a bigger car. I am getting a e39 540i. So I regretfully have to sell my baby to get it.
All of the mods are tasteful and nothing is blatently ricey.

Standard Equipment: 4-Door, 5-Speed Transmission, Vinyl Interior, Cruise Control, AC, Power Steering, Power Windows/Locks, AM/FM Cassette, 4-Cyl M42 Engine. The car has 118k on it and the engine has 46k on it (Rebuilt in 2001 - Have the build sheet and reciept for it)

Here's the list of recent maintenance to it:
New Cat, New resonator, new plugs, new wires, new injectors, seafoamed, new fuel filter, detailed, radiator flushed and refilled with DexCool, New waterpump, oil is changed religiously with Mobil 1, Changed diff oil and tranny fluid (Red Line MT90), Red Line fuel system cleaner and water wetter used constantly. I even have an interior switch for the new puller fan. It was just smogged and is registered in California until May 2007.
It has a clean title, it has never been in an accident except for a lady bumping the front trying to get out of the Taco Bell drive through, it has never been tracked or ran really hard. It gets 40 MPG if you are not deep in the throttle.
This car turns heads and the girls LOVE it.
I am asking $6000 for it, I am firm on the price. It is well worth that.
The following members have seen my car and can vouch for how nice it is: LeftCoastBias, LWRNCE, jonjononline, therussian1, vincewashere, and a few others. It is a really nice car. I would rock it forever if I were a single man. I want this car to go to an enthusiast, not someone that will not apreciate it for what it is.
I am even including the following extra parts: M42 Engine Block, crank and pistons, new center console, 2 extra alarm remotes, New nationwide Nav DVD with backup, spare exhaust manifold, spare oil pan, spare engine internals, spare throttle body, spare Cam position sensor, spare crank position sensor, an oil filter housing with earls connectors for an oil cooler, a spare ABS brain, ABS sensors (One sensor died, needs to be changed), spare ABS pump, I have the AC Compressor and hoses if anyone wants to get crazy and reconnect the AC and the fanclutch.
I just clay barred, buffed and waxed it with 6 coats of wax!!!
Here are some pics of it.
