1991 BMW 3-Series

For sale is my 1991 BMW 325i Cabriolet with 162K miles. This car came from Texas and I purchased it in Oklahoma about 14 years ago. It was a daily driver until 8 years ago and has been in the garage since. I've decided to sell it and get another project car. I swapped engines with a newer BMW model about 7 years ago which gained an extra 40-50 HP and at the same time swapped the automatic for a five speed. It is lightning quick! The paint is original and has a few minor imperfections as the car is 26 years old. I would not hesitate to drive this car anywhere – very reliable.
