Update: SOLD
For sale here is my 318ti M-Sport BLK/BLK. Purchased from a fellow 'org member in 2007. Original sale listing is
here for reference.
I have owned the vehicle since 8/2007. I have performed meticulous maintenance on this vehicle, replacing just about every nut, bolt, clip, bulb, etc. when needed.
Modifications are too many to list, so please refer to my exhaustive documentation available
here.
Major work is as follows:
Aggressive suspension tore through the shock towers due to missing M3 strut mount reinforcements. Damaged towers were repaired using 1/4" steel, then bolstered with a custom tubular strut bar, making it arguably one of the stiffest E36 front ends around.
At the same time the suspension repair was taking place, I swapped in a lower mileage M44 - it had 66K on the clock when it went in. Current mileage would be about 81K.
Current condition is as follows:
Interior - 9.5/10 - drivers side bolster has enough wear to warrant re-dye, but is one of the nicest non-mint examples I have seen. Everything else interior-wise is absolutely beautiful.
Exterior - 7/10 - Car could use a repaint. Conservatively, the drivers door and left front quarterpanel. For show quality, paint the whole thing. there is a section on the driver's door B-pillar which was repaired following a breakin, and is currently in primer to prevent rust.
Highlights:
- Two sets of wheels (Kosei K1R, Apex ARC-8), both with essentially new
- Continental tires
- Rare roof rack
- Rare mud flaps
- Track ready suspension
- E46 330i Brakes
- Euro M-tech steering wheel (brand new)
- Low miles engine and transmission, essentially new clutch
Needs:
- I am including a set of front wheel hubs/bearings. There is a slight vibration between 50-60 miles an hour when the suspension is cold.
- One of the rear shocks is weeping fluid. Works fine, but should be considered on the "watch list"
- Hatch glass is scratched a bit, not noticeable when driving or from 10 feet away.
- Tinting was bubbling on hatch, so I removed it, currently only the rear side windows are tinted.
- Heater control light bulb is out, I ordered the wrong replacement unfortunately, don't have one on hand.

I am an honest seller, and this is a fine example of the 318ti. It could be turned into either a pristine road car, or a competitive tracker. Your choice.
Price is $8500 including everything listed. Let's talk.
Oh, I almost forgot: MUDFLAPS! yuss.
cheers, tbw
