Vehicle Overview

FIRST this is a unique model- Any model that is simply badged 325 with no letters is equipped with the 2.7 liter eta motor. It was BMWs base model from 1986 until 1988 when it was phased out in favor of the 325i. In its final year, the 1988 *325 (dubbed Super Eta by enthusiasts) was equipped from the factory with a 325i cylinder head, unique pistons, 325i exhaust system, and Motronic 1.1 engine management control, which bumped horsepower up to 127 and raised the redline to 5500 RPM.
The wheels were purchased brand new in 2022 are 15x7 Basket Weave style.
Everything has been kept original OEM. I did swap out the stereo but I kept the old one and it can be put back in easily. Color is Delphin Grey Metallic.
I have extensive records for the life of the car and carfax is clean.
I know a lot of people want to customize the car due to its unique characteristics to make a 'stroker'.
The sunroof still works perfectly and all the windows work as well.
A/C is R12 and is super cold and strong.
This car is fun to drive up and down the coast and you will get lots of attention from people everywhere. UV tint on the windows. Speakers work great.

Mechanical

Engine is solid. Transmission will likely have to be replaced at some point but not anytime soon. New battery. Brakes were replaced 2022 as well. Shocks might need to be done but it does not affect drivability. Exhaust was replaced 2019. A/C blows cold and runs on R12. Let me know if you have any questions.

Exterior

The paint is in good condition except on the sides where there is some oxidation and minor chips. Other wise very clean and shines when washed.

Interior

Interior is super clean. Dash completely intake. Seats are in perfect condition. Trunk is clean.
