I'm not the brightest person, But there seems to be an intercooler in the front bumper but a distinct lack of turbo?

That looks so wrong, even what looks like an iS boot badge!!

Having said that knowing Oz prices for e30s if the engine was ok and bodywork ok then still worth considering!

Rare beast the 325is.. Only just found out about them this week on another thread. interesting pics though of engine bay. I just painted my rocker cover red like that and was about to do the inlet but not so sure now aftre seeing that ?? Any thoughts ?? should i or not ??

would love the car if a genuine 325is.

i thought there was no such car as a 325is? just some people refering to 325 sports as ''is'?

I think im getting confused with the 333i... Im sure there was a thread about 325is and it had a 2.7 producing about 210bhp... will have a look and try to find it!!!!

325iS's were only available in South Africa.

Hi I asked earlier this week if any other South African 325iS on the Zone as i have one up here in Scotland but not much fed back other than might be the only one in this country imported in 1991 .

i once saw an escort with an intercooler sitting upfront but no turbo in a supermarket carpark, when i asked wtf it was doing on there the lad said he has plumbed it between the air filter and inlet to keep the air cool.

not sure if it actually improved anything.just there for show if you ask me.

My Australian Supplement to my owner's manual lists the 325is on the front. The 1989 sales brochure I have from BMW Australia devotes quite a bit of space to "The New Sporting Elite": the 325is. Our second hand pricing guides (RedBook, Glass's Guide, etc) all list the 325is as a model.

The 325is is the same as your Sport model.

They are rare vehicles here. I don't believe the one above is an example of one.

EDIT: reference to interior pic deleted because I'm a doofus.

Did the stock 325i come with a cd head unit because thats what it looks like is in the dash, on another note i think that is an old pic of the car front and the car was previously turbo'd and he has blown the motor and wacked a eta motor in it. i'm in search of a e30 and live close enough so might check it out later this week.

CD payer thingies were fitted to some cars as OEM. You just had to tick the box I believe. I think they were the "Bavaria" units, though I'm not sure.
