This 1988 BMW 325i convertible is finished in Alpine White over tan vinyl upholstery and is powered by a 2.5-liter inline-six mated to a five-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Additional equipment includes a black convertible soft top, fog lights, 14″ alloy wheels, an on-board computer, heated front seats, air conditioning, and power accessories. Recent service included converting the air conditioning system to R-134a refrigerant, replacement of the front struts and radiator, as well as an oil change.
The car is finished Alpine White (146) with black side moldings and features a black convertible soft top that was reportedly replaced under current ownership. Additional equipment includes fog lights, twin exhaust outlets, and a power-operated antenna. The Carfax report indicates an accident occurred in 1996 resulting in damage to the front of the vehicle.
Factory 14″ alloy wheels are fitted with Jinyu YU12 tires measuring 195/65 at each corner. Braking is handled by four-wheel disc brakes, and the rotors, pads, and brake fluid were replaced in 2017. Recent service included replacement of the front struts, tie-rod ends, and control arm bushings along with a front-end alignment.
The cabin features manually-adjustable sport seats upholstered in replacement tan vinyl with matching carpets and door panels offset by a black dashboard and center console. Equipment includes heated front seats, air conditioning, an on-board computer, cruise control, and power accessories.
The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 150-mph speedometer, a tachometer with a 6,500-rpm redline, and gauges for coolant temperature, fuel economy, and fuel level. The six-digit mechanical odometer shows 113k miles.
The 2.5-liter inline-six was factory rated at 168 horsepower and 164 lb-ft of torque. The timing belt, tensioner, water pump, spark plugs, and valve cover gasket were replaced in 2017 under previous ownership. Service in preparation for the sale included converting the air conditioning system to R-134a refrigerant, replacing the radiator and coolant flush, replacement of the mass-airflow meter, and an oil change.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential.
