This 1988 BMW M3 is finished in Salmon Silver Metallic over a black leather interior and is powered by a 2.3-liter inline-four paired with a five-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Equipment includes 16″ Racing Dynamics wheels, an electric sunroof, fog lights, sport seats, cruise control, a 13-button onboard computer, air conditioning, and a BMW cassette stereo. A 2021 service included the installation of a replacement brake master cylinder and a battery.
The car is finished in Salmon Silver Metallic (203) and features fog lights, a power-operated sunroof, and M3-specific front and rear spoilers, side skirts, bumpers, and fender flares. The seller states that the front fenders were repainted under current ownership to correct fading.
The 16″ Racing Dynamics wheels wear BMW center caps and were installed under the seller’s ownership. Toyo Proxes R1R tires and measure 225/45 up front and 255/45 out back, and a 15″ basketweave wheel with an older Pirelli tire is mounted under the trunk floor. Braking is handled by four-wheel discs with cross-drilled rotors. A replacement brake master cylinder was installed in 2021.
The interior features sport seats upholstered in black leather with matching door panels and carpets. Features include cruise control, an onboard computer, power windows, and an AM/FM/cassette stereo. The seller notes filled holes for a previously-mounted car phone on the center console.
The M-Tech I steering wheel frames VDO instrumentation including a 150-mph speedometer and an 8k-rpm tachometer along with gauges for fuel level, oil temperature, and coolant temperature. The six-digit odometer shows 91k miles.
The DOHC 2.3-liter S14 inline-four was factory rated at 192 horsepower and 170 lb-ft of torque. A 2020 service performed by All Automotive of Reno, Nevada included an inspection, an oil change, a valve adjustment, and replacement of the spark plugs, air filter, and fuel filter. A new battery was installed in 2021.
Power is sent to the rear wheels via a Getrag G265 five-speed manual gearbox and a limited-slip differential.
