2001 BMW 330Ci Coupe E46 3.0L Rare 5 Speed Manual = fun drive and good MPG
2001 BMW 3-Series 330CI Description
A really fun car to drive and gets great gas mileage as well. I am the third owner of the car and bought it in Texas when it had just over 70,000 miles. I have driven it for the last 120,000 miles and it has never let me down. Mechanicallyit is very sound and most of the serviced items were preventative or normal wear items. The clutch was recently (12/15) replaced at a local transmission shop to the bill of $1,853.91. Car is available to view and test drive in person if you are in the Phoenix area. I'm selling this car because I'm moving north and I am keeping one of my four wheel drive vehicles which will do better in the snow. Feel free to ask any questions you may have or request specific photos that would help your shopping. Thanks for looking!
Pros - Upgraded sound system (replaced all speakers, added a 5 channel amplifier and 10" sub in trunk), replaced headunit with newer model BMW headunit to add Auxiliary input for phone or ipod, engine runs very smooth, I've taken very good care of the mechanical systems because I love working on this car. (many common failures have been fixed including, replacement of vacuum lines, DISA valve, Mass air flow sensor, valve cover gasket, oil pump gasket, radiator, coolant hoses and expansion tank, control arms and bushings, fuel pump, VANOS seals, brake lines, brake discs and pads, and that's just what I can remember off hand.) Clutch replaced at TriCity Transmission in Tempe within the last 2,000 miles. First clutch lasted 190,000 miles!
Cons - cracked windshield (never replaced because there are too many rocks on Phoenix highways, all three of my cars have windshield damage..., rear tires with less than 50% tread, right rear tire with sidewall damage but has had no issues in last 1000 miles I've driven on it, wear to leather on drivers seat and center console, upholstery on pillars was sagging and removed from A pillars, slow oil leak (1 quart per 1,000 miles or so), intermittent coolant leak although not leaking currently after I replaced the bleed screw
