S14 BMW 320is

[groselha]

Hi, i´m from Portugal and a e30 lover, this is my pride:







It's a 4 door saloon without M-Tech2 kit, wich was an option, only standard on the 2 door.

I'm looking for a complete M-Tech2 kit, let´s see if i can find one.

He's from 1989 and one of the S14 BMW 320is sold in Portugal and Italy.

Sorry for my writing mistakes.

[BIGJO]

Nice car buddy

[Cloggy Saint]

4 door rightness, looks great!

[Jon_Bmw]

That is so understated, I absolutly LOVE it.

Nice weapon you have there

[aceraf]

Probably one of the most desirable 4 door's ever!

[zaust]

Very nice fella. Welcome to the zone..

[Simon13]

the only 4 door worth having! 1 of around 700 built isn't it?

[blitz877]

i dont think it was even that many si

[groselha]

Thanks for the answers, in Portugal were sold 164, this is one of them.
As the years pass, it becomes difficult to find them in good condition, and had the luck to find this in good shape.

In this link, have all the information on this model:

1206 were built, but if we exclude those who are already in scrap, dismantled, etc. No longer must be many in circulation.

The 4 door is more rare than the 2 door, and both 2 and 4 door are more rare than standard e30 M3.

Welcome.

Now thats a cool 4 door. Real wolf in sheeps clothing!

[Jhonno]

Leave it as is.. M-Tech kit wont do it any favours imo

[hammoj28]

Id add an iS lip, drop the front and be done with it.

A friend of mine has an ex Italian 2dr 320is S14 here in England.

Thanks,

There's no need to be embarassed, even here in Portugal where this car was sold, lot's of people doesn't know this car, and the 4 door is quite rare to see.

At first, i was looking for the 2 door, but when i saw this one, i fell in love for him...

I think there are some writing errors, but i'm trying my best...

One of my lecturers at Uni tried to tell me that the 320iS never existed. he was quite taken with it when i showed him.lol

[SHAKEELE30]

That is very nice, if i had that i would put tech 2kit on it, but that is nice... might make a trip over to find one myself sometime...

[Geeman]

I miss my 320iS - they are superb machines.

Mine felt SO much tighter than a 'regular' E30 Sport.

If one pops up for the right price, I couldn't recommend a better all-round E30 for the money.

did't know they did a 4 door 320is looks good tho

[groselha]

did't know they did a 4 door 320is looks good tho

Yes, they did...

Some people say we can consider this as the first of four doors M3...

Hello,

Here's an update:

Eibach Pro-Kit:


The dampers will be Bilstein B8, i have ordered them, but haven´t arrived yet.

Lighted dogleg shift knob:



I have also arranged, full M-Tech2 kit.
When parts arrive, i'll post photos.

Cheers.

[maxfield]

Awesome car!

Where did you get that gear knob from?

[groselha]

I got the knob from the BMW dealer.

Cheers.

[maxfield]

How much may I ask?

[groselha]

Of course you may ask.

Here in Portugal i've paid 160 euros, but here the IVA, that is the same as your VAT, is 21%, so there in the UK it's probably cheaper.

Cheers.

[maxfield]

Thanks!

[hubble]

I thought the 320is came with an Mtec 2 kit as standard??

[maxfield]

The 2 door did, 4 door was optional extra.
