1987 BMW 3 Series 325is review from North America
"A reliable, affordable sports car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
On Board Computer back lights and Coding Plug
Idle Control Valve failed
Torn Seats.
General comments?
0-60 in about 7.4 seconds, and better handling than a 2003 Grand Prix GTP.
If you drive "well" you can get 23 city and 29 highway MPG's.
The car starts everyday, and pretty much everything works.
The "is" has the oil cooler, transmission cooler, Limited Slip Differential, aero kit with brake cooling ducts, Hella Fog lights and BBS basketweave style wheels, and a sportier than normal suspenion.
Hard to find.
