Default FS: 1991 318is, Silver, Nor-Cal.

I know these are hard to come by, i have been driving 318's for the past 8 years. Anyway i am deciding to sell my DD to make funds to fix my Subaru . I have never willingly sold one of these cars, i hate to see her go but she needs a good home. The car has 234K on it and i want it to last another 234K, she needs a carring home. i will not sell it to someone who will not take car of it that is why i refuse to put it on craigslist. Here is the skinny:

-234K miles
-Original motor and everything.
-Straight body
-most all maintnance records (all fluids, clutch 20K ago, full motor reseal about 40K ago, new timing chain! all factory parts used, full stock car-except it does feel like it has a chip in it).
-passes Cali smog beutifully, has new cat (high flow, not stock).
-Runs extremely well, very fun to drive.
-All rubber replaced over the years.
-Brakes about 50%, and so are the tires.
-p/s disconnected (all you need is a belt, i can connect it back if you wish)
-A/C recharged this summer with R12, blows extremely cold
-Trust me when i say this car is clean!
-The interior is from my last totalled 318is, black seats with two tone (black/silver) door panels front and rear.
-the car has 3 cons: Dash has cracks in it, roof and trunk paint is not looking so hot, missing front airdam piece (as seen in photos) $5 on ebay or this forum.
-engine runs very strong and was well taken care of (runs better than my 318is with 150K did)
-drives straight
-etc etc....the list goes on.
-Put factory radio in it because it looks better, i have a cheap cd player that i will throw in if you want it.

I know the milage is high, but due to it cleanliness (which is hard to come by these days) i am asking:

$2,500 firm and i think that is an extremely fair price (thule rack not included, negotiable).

Please Email me if you are interested, i live at 94928 in Northern California.

Here are the pictures, they suck but its what i got for now:

that is a very clean E30, good luck with the sale, I'd buy it if I had the money, it's hard to find rust-free old cars up here

GLWS!
Always nice to see a high mileage car in such great shape.

Wish there were rust free e30's for that price up here

I never knew the M42s installed in the E30s had a different intake manifold than the M42 in E36s. I just looked it up on realoem, and sure enough! Interesting. The DISA feature must have been for E36s only.
