1995 BMW 325is Base Coupe 2-Door 2.5L

You are looking at a well maintained. rust free E36 1995 BMW 325is with a 5 speed manual transmission. 166k miles and VANOS. The car has been upgraded with high performance parts and would make a fun daily driver or novice track car. This BMW has received a full tune-up within the past year (see list of new parts below). The engine has great compression and does not need any work and sounds great with the new AFE Intake. Suspension modifications include: Bilstein PSS9 Coilovers with upgraded H&R Linear springs which provide higher rebound rates and allows the car to handle and corner much better than an M3. This 325is has Hawk HP Brake pads (front and rear) with drilled rotors. 17x8. 5 Kosei K1 wheels and monster 245 Hankook RS3's (purchased in June 2014) that are straight and true and have plenty of tread left. I have invested over 10k in parts and labor bringing this beautiful car back to life. Before purchasing this car. I drove many E36 BMW's. and honestly none compare to the way this one drives. Many of the parts that have been replaced on this BMW 325is are typically worn out on E36's and you will have to invest time and money into the "average" E36 to get it's specs close to this one. Pick up this well tuned / maintained BMW while it lasts. my loss is your gain. Best of luck in your bidding!I have listed a detailed description of the car below. Note that all New parts were installed within the past year and have only been driven on for a few thousand miles. Engine / Suspension / other:New Bilstein M3 PSS9 Coil over Suspension with upgraded with upgraded H&R Linear Springs(Description of Bilstein PSS9 Coil Over Suspension from Turner Motor Sports)Bilstein's celebrated PSS9 coil over kit for the E36 M3 combines height adjustment struts with Bilstein's 9-position monotube shock absorbers. The PSS9 coilovers offer a stiffer spring rate than stock and a lower ride height for less bodyroll and better handling. These are among the easiest coil over kits on the market - no special mounts required (works with stock mounts and sway bar links). larger adjustment knob allows for easy shock damping changes. and coil over spanner wrenches included for easy height changes. Bilstein backs up their technology with a limited lifetime warranty. TUV approved for fitment. safety. and quality! Bilstein's monotube shock dampers in the PSS9 offer 9 precise settings for compression and rebound. A new setting is just a click away. allowing you to set a ride and handling combination that works for your setting. Instead of offering too many shock settings that you're never going to use. Bilstein has chosen nine optimal damping curves from a smooth street setting (P9) to an ultra-stiff track-only setup (P1). Shock changes are made from the over-sized adjuster knob at the bottom of each strut or shock - no special tools. no cutting of interior panels. and no hassle. You don't even have to raise the car to make adjustments. Ride height adjustments are done from perches that ride on the front strut body. These struts are zinc coated for excellent wear and corrosion resistance. You can set the ride height between 1. 0 to 1. 75 inches lower than stock ride height. On the E36 we recommend a front to rear rake of . 75" (higher rear). Spring rates are - 500lb in front and 685lb (progressive) in rear. These are stiffer than most coil over kit manufacturers and the results of Bilstein's extensive testing on the German Nurgburgring and Autobahn. The lower spring is a 60mm inside diameter so hardware is already in place if you would like to change 60mm springs later on.

Battery does not hold a charge longer than 3 days. There must be an electrical issue of some sort. The previous owner replaced the radiator (new hoses and all). yet there is a coolant leak somewhere. Must add coolant as the car notifies you. The clutch is in good working condition. I have not touched any part of it nor know when it was last maintained. but I do not feel any slippage when driving.
