# marcus915 : looks like you've got the front fitment almost on point, but that rear..

Thank you, these are et20 rims, the factory ones are like et40 or something, so they are fitting well the e36 at the front. It could be good at the rear too, but with that camber(comes with the lowering), i need to use spacers at the future.

# klucifers : Welcome to e36 life, but cmon mate be more reallistic about pricing. m52b28(the one in 328i) alone costs 800euros, just keep that in mind when continue.

((sorry about that, i am trying to be as realistic as i could, but i have to google up the prices, and well, it looks like i found a wery cheap car on ebay :D. i'll be more accurate, and changed the story to a 320i.))

Today when i was browsing in my lunchtime, i found an interesting ad. It is a 1992 E32 740i, automatic. It is burgundrot metallic, with black cloth interior. The ad says that it loses water(it could be only a water hose, common on M60s), and has no extra option. It has 279000 miles. And comes with 16" borbet A's.

They uploaded only one picture:


i'll se it after work.

Added 1 hour 37 minutes later:

After work i walked to the adress, what was in the ad. At first look i was disappointed, because the car is covered in dust. I can't examine the chassis because of that, but the overall condition convinced me, that it can't be too bad. The interior is super clean, the rear seat and the trunk are like they never used it. The thing with the water, i saw a cracked water pipe(the one goes to the radiator), common failure on m60s, apart from that the engine looks to be in good shape, had run it for 2 mins, no smoke, no water in the oil, starts easy, and runs wery well. Because of the water problem, i could not test drive the car, but i think it will run just great. I paid V$1900 for it, and towed to the garage for V$15. I already ordered the water tubes for v$50, i hope tomorrow i'll have time to install it. I washed the car at the garage, and i'm not disappointed, this burgundrot metallic color is absolutely stunning, and the car is in perfect shape. It needs a polishing, but after that it will look like a new car.





The Borbets are up for sale, any not so bad offer will take it, i never liked those rims. they can be exchanged to 16 inch steelies and some cash. 5x120 8x16 et15, with 215/55 R16 tyres with 60% profile.
