E30 M-Tech

This is a very rare factory E30 M-Tech. This is not a body kit. For confirmation that this is a true M-Tech 2 (2 is for post facelift E30s), please decodethe vin at bmwarchive.org. It is a Japan spec car. I bought it in Dubai in 2012. It had been imported there from Japan.It was already in very good shape when I bought it, but spent a lot of money and time making it absolutely show perfect and fine tuning it (see list of improvements below). I brought it back to Canada with me in 2015where I have used it as my summer car since. I store it every winter. It is abeautifulexample. It has a few very minor flaws, and they are ALL documented in thepictures. It runs as solid as it looks - very smooth, no noises or squeaks. It sits low on the ground and handles perfectly. It looks very different from the M3 and other E30s and hence gets a lot of attention on the road. Ihave enjoyed thoroughly, but it is now time for me topass it on to the next E30 maniac!

Body condition: The body and paint are in very good condition. The body has only the following flaws:

(i) one blemish on the left hand side of the hood

(ii)a few nicks on the corners of the bumpers

(iii) the front skirt is scraped at the bottom, and has a few small nicks (the skirt could use a repaint if you were to bring the car to a show)

Please see pictures below for all body flaws.

Interior condition: excellent overall.

Dash: excellent, not a single crack or scratch or discoloration. There is a small crack in the bottom right corner of the instrument cluster (see picture)

Seats: excellent. All seats were reupholstered in high quality black leather, with white double stitching in 2013. The only flaw is a small tear on the back section of the passenger seat (see attached picture).

Door cards: excellent. Door cards also recovered in 2013 in matching leather

Headliner: excellent, like new, without any stains,scratches or tears.

Carpeting: the carpets are light grey, very clean. The mats are original and very clean. I had the carpet section of the mat replaced in 2016.

Undercarriage: excellent.

Engine bay: very clean. All is in order, it is not missing anything. Every single part/screw/fitting/molding that was missing when i purchased it was ordered and refitted.

Mechanical Condition:

It is in very good mechanical condition overall. It runs a bit rich, the injectors will need to be changed soon. Someseals will also need to be changed. The air conditioning stopped working this spring when it came out of winter storage It probably only needs a freon refill. Theodometer was not functioning when I purchased it, hence I cannot guarantee the mileage. The car wasmeticulously maintained, for example the timing belt was replaced in July 2015. The service records since I purchased the car are available and will be provided to the buyer.
