This 1990 BMW 325i convertible spent time in Missouri and Illinois before relocating to Florida where it was purchased by the seller in 2020 from its long-term prior owner, and it now shows 129k miles. The car is powered by a 2.5-liter inline-six paired with a five-speed manual transmission and is finished in Schwarz over Natural Bison leather upholstery. It is equipped with 14″ basketweave wheels, heated front sport seats, a black soft top, fog lights, a Sony head unit, and R134a-based air conditioning. Work performed under current ownership is said to have included replacing the timing belt, timing belt tensioner, front cover seals, water pump, drive belts, fuel filter, battery, tie rods, front strut mounts, front dampers, rear shock mounts, and rear dampers. This E30 convertible is offered at no reserve with a clean Carax report and a clean Florida title in the seller’s name.
The car is finished in Schwarz (086) and features a black convertible soft top that is said to have been replaced. Equipment includes fog lights, painted mirror caps, a power antenna, and dual exhaust outlets. The front air dam is damaged, there are dings in the left rear fender and trunk lid, and paint chips on the forward-facing surfaces. Close-up photographs of exterior blemishes and trim are shown in the gallery below.
Silver 14″ basketweave wheels are fitted with Yokohama Avid Touring tires that were mounted in 2020. The car is equipped with an independent suspension and power-assisted four-wheel disc brakes with vented front rotors. The front strut mounts, front dampers, rear shock mounts, and rear dampers were replaced in 2020, the tie rod assemblies were replaced in 2022, and a power steering hose was replaced in 2023.
The cabin features heated front sport seats and a rear bench upholstered in Natural Bison leather. Interior amenities include air conditioning, cruise control, an onboard computer, a Sony stereo linked to an aftermarket amplifier and speakers, power windows and locks, and air conditioning, the latter of which has been converted to utilize R134a refrigerant. The stereo and onboard computer illumination are inoperative, the center stack trim is cracked, and the seller notes that the right door window catches on the convertible top. The power window switches were replaced in 2022.
The steering wheel fronts instrumentation including a 150-mph speedometer and a 7k-rpm tachometer as well as gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The six-digit odometer shows 129k miles, approximately 15k of which were added under current ownership.
The 2.5-liter M20 inline-six features Bosch fuel injection and was factory rated at 168 horsepower and 164 lb-ft of torque.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transmission. The transmission output shaft seal and transmission detent plate were replaced in 2023, per the seller, who notes corrosion on the left front lift point and underside components.
