1999 BMW 3-Series Description
1999 BMW 328i Convertible
Selling our BMW, it is a vehicle my parents use when visiting Florida, so it sit's in the garage for months at a time before use. They are getting older, and getting in and out of the low car is not easy on my dad. So, time for a more appropriate car.I bought the car 5-6 years ago with about 50,000 miles, I have been trying to find that exact amount, but it will probably show on the carfax. I purchased from a pilot that lived in Ft Lauderdale area who didn't drive it much either, but it was always garaged.
Here is a list of important options:Power WindowsPower LocksKeyless Entry (have 2 sets)Power SeatsACCruiseComputer for fuel economy, range till empty, temp and moreAftermarket headlights replaced a few years back, much brighter than stock
List of Work Done:New Battery last yearNew door handles/sealsAftermarket headlights/turn signalsM3 front bumper/with European license plate(you get that too)The chrome wheels are BMW wheels from a different model (previous owner bought those new)Tires have probably 65-75% leftSynthetic oilWell, I guess that list was short, but we hadn't had issues!
List of "issues":As stated in condition, the car isn't perfect, it has some minor dings, scratches, etc. But looks great for 17 years old!Interior is the same, it isn't perfect, but is in really good condition. The only wear you really may notice is the front seats on some of the leather.The speakers must be a low quality, if you like to listen to music loudly, I would replace them.
I noticed a couple years ago that when the car is cold and when backing up there is a rattle. I took to a BMW shop, and they said it has something to do with the catalytic converter, and it wasn't worth doing anything to. It doesn't do it when the car has been running already. Again, small thing, but trying to be detailed here.
The convertible top works fine, you must help it while it is going up and down as the elastic straps are original. But it literally takes a few seconds to help it while you remain in the drivers seat. So, it's of little inconvenience.If you were putting the top down daily, you may want to have some work done to replace the elastic in the top. But for how often we put it down, it has worked out great. It does NOT leak water, very good top.
Ok, I think I covered everything, but if you have questions, please ask. From looking around, I do think this is one of the best you will find for the year and model. Great summer car, reliable for long trips. Engine is BMW! BUT, there is NO warranty or implied warranty. Sold "AS IS". This is a personal vehicle, and not a purchase through the dealer.
Lastly, I will be out of town at the end of the auction on Friday and Saturday. So, if you don't hear from me, I will be back early Sunday morning. So the vehicle will not be able to be picked up until then, Sunday May 1st.
Here is a copy of the Auto-check summary I just pulled. The "vehicle use & special event check" shows the first owner leased the vehicle.
