Please be sure to read this entire post. Everything you need answered is here. The price is $8, 300. I’ve spent over $14k in parts/labor in the last 2.5 years, not including the purchase price of the car. So, you’re getting a killer deal. This car is not bring-a-trailer quality and not a ZHP (which bring $14-16k), but it is the nicest, low mileage, 330i (manual) car for sale online. If you’ve had a BMW, you know it can be tricky/exasperating running down DME codes and a lot of time researching parts/repair strategies. This car is fully sorted. However, if you’re the kind of person that freaks out when the check engine light comes on, this is not the car for you. When the car is running perfect, its an absolute blast to drive; but it is 18 years old. So plan now to fix the next thing that pops up (all older cars need frequent maintenance). Also, be prepared for a lot of attention. Every time this car goes out we get thumbs up from sport bikes, custom cars, kids waving, you get the idea; Everyone loves the matte wrap. It has a tint of ocean Caribbean blue/green in direct sunlight, and dark blue at night. I've never seen a wrap like it and its awesome. The car has a clean title, ready to go. This car will not disappoint. I bought this car off craigslist from a college kid in 2018. It needed a lot of work, and my son and I were looking for a car project. Once we got it running well, I quickly realized that this car was really quick. Too quick for a high school kid. So I decided to buy a Honda Civic (manual) and he drove that as his daily. I have my truck to daily and this car gets driven minimally. I’ve only put 8k miles on the car in almost 3 years. Current mileage is 138k. Here is the new parts list:

The car comes with all the extra/spare parts I have in the garage. Original hood, shop manual, the 17” rims that came with the car w/ new tires, etc.
The passenger mirror still tilts down when its in reverse, flashlight in the glove box, and the sunroof opens w/o issue. I’m not sure of the total car history, but it has Texas registration going back to Jan. 2005.There was some hail damage on the roof before I got the car, which was repaired. All door dings, imperfections, were repaired and the car was sanded/primed for paint. At the last minute we went for the wrap, which was done at Wrap Masters in Carrollton, TX. If you ever decide to pull the wrap, the car still needs to be painted. Also, the A/C fan blower door doesn’t close the floor vent. I spent some time looking at it and it appears the plastic door arm was damaged/broken. I blocked the lower duct with a new shop towel. So, no fan air comes out by your feet. Besides that, everything works, cruise control, one-touch all four windows, side mirror motors, etc. The JNC wheels have orange stickers on them, that the kids put on, and can be removed easily. The rear seats have some stains/paint that was on the leather; I've tried to get it out several times, but that is what I was left with. There is a small oil leak on the back of the motor, drips about a nickel size puddle every couple weeks. Also the drivers seat leather shows the most wear, see pics.
While I would have liked to give the car to my son when he graduated high school, its not feasible for the car to go with him to college. The car only stays in the garage and we are selling to help pay for college. Let me know if you'd like any pics of anything I missed.
Thank you,
Orlando
