Title: E30 - The Quest for Ownership
Post by: KipInOmaha on Wednesday, January 25, 2006 - 02:34 PM
Hello all,

Greetings from the land of potholes and orange construction barrels.., Omaha.

I am having NO luck finding a decent 1980's/early 90's 325i/is coupe in my area.

Missed a beautiful black 89 coupe by 2 hours....timin g belt done, new exhaust, 117K, perfect paint and interior, sold for 4700

Also got out-e-bay-ed (is that a word?) on an 87 cabrio, 87,000 miles, sold and certified by a BMW dealer, went for 4660

Missed a 87 blue beater that sold for 500.00!!  Even had new tires!

So, does ANYONE out there know of a heartland area 325 that is in OK shape, decently priced?

Either that or I will keep the 95 Discovery, and just follow the oil drops back home when it dies.

PS...If you dont help me I will by a Civic, put a coffee can exhaust, 2 foot wing, and bimmer roundels on it!!  I swear I will!!!

Thx,
Kip

7 are posted over on the bmwcca.org website - even if you have to buy a plane ticket to go pick up the car, you will get used to it for the drive back -
