1988 BMW M3 For Sale by Owner in Sarasota, FL

Alpine White on Black Sport Leather with Evo Upgrades, the perfect drivers car. This enthusiast owned M3 has been tastefully upgraded with some of the best OEM and aftermarket parts available. Most importantly the engine, A 2.5L S14 Engine. After experiencing the increased power from the 2.5 liter you simply cannot go back. In the M3's final years of competition in touring car racing, rule changes increased maximum engine displacement to 2.5-liter's. Because of this BMW produced a production run of 600 very special M3's with this more powerful engine. Nice examples of these cars have now eclipsed over one hundred thousand dollars. This is the pinnacle of the road going E30 M3. This car is an opportunity to experience the ownership at a fraction of the cost. The motor was rebuilt in early 2009 and the mileage at the time of overhaul was 185550. This represents the mileage of the engine since rebuild at roughly 37,000 miles. The engine runs beautifully. technical info: Schrick 284/278 Cams, 11:1 CP Pistons, adjustable cam gears, BMW EVO Oil pump, BMW DTM Baffled Oil Pan, E36 Chain Tensioner, Evo Valve Springs, Evo Air Box, replaced valve shims, valve job. Valve Cover and intake plenum powder coated red. Exhaust is custom by Cars and Concepts Tampa Florida(local BMW e30 M3 specialist). Aluminum radiator.The Transmission is original and is in great shape. The clutch(Sachs/OEM), bearings, rear main seal(OEM) and shifter bushings were replaced less than 1000 miles ago and the flywheel was machined. The flywheel has been lightened to about 12lbs and does not cause any chatter or excessive vibration. This allows quicker revs similar to the factory flywheel in the Sport Evo. The car also features shorter shift throws courtesy of an OEM BMW Z3 shifter. I have tried to keep all modifications as period correct as possible during my tenure with the car.
