Car Specs (328is)

:: Int. Black leather
:: Miles 107,000
:: Trans. Manual
:: Price 7999.00

:: Link http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...l=&cardist=253

Opinions?

looks like it is in good condition, especially the leather on the interior.

You can spend a over a thousand dollars modding a M50 and not make up the 30 ft/lbs of torque the M52 has over a M50.

A M52 with M50 manifold and software is the way to go. If you have the cash upgrade to S52 cams and M3 springs/retainers if you plan to spend a lot of time near redline.

do bolt ons to an m52, and an m50, there will be a large difference.

Thanks for the input guys. I know the benefits of the m52 vs. m50. I am taking a very close look at this car.

My other option is to put off buying a car for 6 months or so and picking up an m3. Does any one like this option?

///M3.. You will not regret it..Although a manual Black on Black ///M may be hard to come by... Get a ///M3 at least you will be able to play with the 8-boys..you dig.

i would either hold out for the m or turbo the 325. turbo 325> m unless m is turbo'd

and obd2 is much better than obd1, just that less people know how to work with it.
