Classifind Cut: 1987 BMW E30 325iC 5-speed – Sold?

January 12th Update – we just noticed the listing “Classifind” expired, so with no replacement found we’re assuming this ride “Sold?” We’re sorry that this one got away, so feel free to reach out either by email or call Rudy directly if you’d like to be informed when we come across something similar.

Unmolested BMW E30 5-speed-equipped 325i convertibles for sale by the original owner are quickly becoming a rare event.  Consequently, when we saw this white-over-cream, well-maintained, 1987 example posted in December 2020 on Craigslist in Bayport, New York (Long Island) with original documentation and an asking price of $14,500, we knew we had to get the word out as this likely won’t last long.  The Hagerty Insurance Online Valuation Tool confirms the ask falls between this guide’s current #3 “Good” estimate of $12,700 and its #2 “Excellent” appraisal of $21,400.

Here’s the seller’s description:
