I texted the seller, 113k and a full binder of service history, at $3500 with the hard top included that is an absolute steal. If I had the time/money I would totally buy this one

minty clean 318is that only needs a transmission (they cost like $200) for $5500 is a good deal these days. a near identical car popped up for sale in Madison when I was searching for an e30 - I called the guy about 6 hours after the ad went up and it was already sold.

Minty clean in California accounts for almost all the e30's that arent sunbaked red/black lol

Then spend another $800 to get it back. Then redo all the wear parts. Adds up quickly lol.

I don't know if I've ever seen cardinal seats in that kind of shape, and definitely not at that price point. Did the seller say when it was imported?

the terrible fender markers would suggest that it was imported a long time ago.
