Just came across a legitimate good buy on my FB:

1992 BMW 325IS Coupe for sale



Obviously, I know the seller in person, and have casually seen this car in person as well (but I never paid too much attention to it since he has some far more interesting cars to look at). I can vouch for him being a very meticulous car guy -- to the point of being OCD, and he always takes care of his cars. This one didn't receive as much attention as his other cars, but knowing him, there wouldn't be any known reliability issues at all. But as the ad says, it is a 25 year old car. Problems are bound to come up when the next owner starts driving the car.

The ad says the price is firm, and I can almost guarantee you that his price will be firm. Looking at various ads on CL, I think his asking price is fair.

Hopefully someone that appreciates this car will pick it up.

A guy I work with says his wife and daughter love their Minis ...

A friend of mine had one of these with similear mods. It was a lot faster than it looked. He could keep up with my stock MKIV supra until about 100mph.

I see what you mean by his other cars, that Odyssey w/ the Lip kit and dished wheels is far more interesting

big crease in the rear 1/4 panel that crosses over the rear wheel... not sure if there is suspension damage

Are you going to winter drive this car? One thing I can never get over in Toronto is -- the winters just eat cars alive because of the crazy amount of salt they use, and everything rusts sooner or later, with it more often being sooner instead of later. And because of that, I just can't bring myself to drive a high dollar car, or a car that I really like year round.
