5 speed manual
129k miles Manual convertible top Limited slip differential Silver exterior Red leather interior New brake lines with braided steel flexible lines Drilled and slotted brake rotors Cool Carbon Brake Pads Eibach Sport Springs Bilstein Sport Shock Timing belt replaced under 5k miles ago Previous owner did transmission and clutch Car is in good condition. Engine runs like a top. Passed MA inspection without issue August 2013. Has been in the family for nearly 8 years. My father owned it before me and recently transferred ownership to me -- but we both have considered it our car for all of that time. Technically I am the 5th owner. My dad bought it from the 3rd owners, and he (the 4th owner) transferred it to me.There is some rust, but I think it's cosmetic -- mostly just some rust around the rocker panel on the driver side and small spot under the brake light on the passenger side rear. The other area that could use some attention is the front seats. There is a seam rip on the driver seat side bolster, and some general cracking from dryness on the front seats. It's a great summer car, and if you throw seat covers over the affected area, you're in business for a great time for the upcoming warm weather. If you know how to upholster, and can do some minor body work you can really take this car to the next level. There really aren't many e30 BMW convertibles around, and the ones you find are either fully restored and going near $10K, or they are just beat to death and rotted out. This is a unique car as it is in good mechnical shape with many of the coveted suspension and braking upgrades already taken care of. Act fast because this will be gone quick -- and before you know it the summer will be over and you've driven your boring sedan for another 6 months of spring and summer instead of rocking a German made classic with the wind blowing through your hair. |

Audi overtakes BMW as adulterers' favorite car brand
Fri, 14 Jun 2013As Audi hopes to surpass BMW as the top-selling luxury automaker, sometimes it has to look at the small victories, too. For instance, IllicitEncounters.com - a UK dating site for married folks (also known as adultery) - is reporting that a recent poll shows that more people willing to cheat on their spouses drive an Audi. Last year, this same poll showed that BMW was the car-of-choice for adulterers.
With Audi on top (pun intended) and BMW bumped to number two, Mercedes-Benz, Volvo and Volkswagen round out the top five car brands owned by unfaithful wives and husbands. Check out the poll over at IllicitEncounters.com, but be sure to clear your browser history afterward. You know, just to make sure your spouse doesn't get the wrong idea about the websites you visit.
BMW 1 Series sedan prepares to fight Mercedes CLA, Audi A3
Thu, 04 Sep 2014The entry-level premium sedan segment is pretty hot right now, with the Audi A3 and Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class doing well for their respective automakers here in the US. Of course, BMW has its 2 Series, but that's currently only available as a coupe, with a convertible bodystyle forthcoming. That all looks to change, however, as our spies recently caught BMW testing a four-door 1 Series sedan that seems to have the A3 and CLA clear in its sight.
BMW's entry-level four-door is expected to ride on the same front-wheel-drive UKL platform that we recently spied in Mini Countryman form. We're pretty sure this thing will launch under the 1 Series line (odds for sedans and wagons, evens for coupes and convertibles), but it's anyone's guess with BMW - after all, the five-door, front-drive Active Tourer wears a 2 Series nameplate.
Look for the 1 Series sedan to launch sometime in 2016 as a 2017 model. Better late than never in the entry-lux segment, we suppose.
BMW 3 Series eDrive plug-in hybrid spotted in development
Thu, 06 Feb 2014BMW has shown its commitment to the development of hybrid and electric powertrains in recent years, with vehicles in its ActiveHybrid range, electrics like its BMW ActiveE and range-extended EVs like the i3 and i8. Plug-in hybrid-electric vehicles are clearly top-of-mind for the German automaker. We saw spy shots of the PHEV BMW X5 eDrive prototypes about a year ago, and now our shooters have come through with a 3 Series-bodied version of the technology, as well.
In addition to the obvious "Hybrid Test Vehicle" designation you see on the bodysides of this 3er, we also note that a second 'fuel cap' - presumably hiding the electric charge point - is in evidence. It's a fairly safe assumption that this 3 Series is making use of the same turbocharged four-cylinder engine and electric motor configuration that the X5 eDrive used. In the case of the X5, that meant a top electric-only speed of 75 miles per hour, with a range of just under 20 miles, and 0-62 mph in under 7 seconds. With considerably lighter, compact sedan bodywork clothing the PHEV drivetrain, we'd guess that the 3 Series eDrive could improve on each of those numbers.
