Hello, Fellas.

I am moving and need to close up my shop and sell off some of my collection of cars. This is one that I have owned since 2011. I am the second owner and bought it with roughly 16K miles on it. In the past five years, I have put another 14K miles on it, mainly using it as a GT car for long trips with my son to visit family during the summer. During the winters, it has always been stored in my heated shop with other cars in my scuderia.

Here are the modifications that I have done:

Quaife Limited Slip Differential
Variable intake manifold (DISA) from a 330i
Super Sprint cat-less mid-pipes
Magnaflow exhaust
Front calipers from 335is
Front rotors from Z4 3.5is
Rear calipers from 328i (42mm vs. stock 40mm)
EBC Redstuff brake pads
AFE cold air intake with dynamic scoops
Turner Motorsports tune
Euro folding rear headrests
Euro blindspot mirrors
BMW carbon fiber mirror covers
Pedal Box adjustable throttle mapping
Apex Aero 7 wheels with Dunlop Sport Maxx tires
Bilstein HD dampers front and rear
Larger H&R rear stabilizer bar

I am not sure if I am forgetting anything, but, as you can see from the list, this car has most of the best modifications available. For the money, the Quaife LSD was actually the very best modification in terms of fun, followed by the variable length intake manifold in terms of power.

I can send more photos and would be happy to talk to you either on the phone or by email. My email is rhutchin@mtu.edu and my phone is (313) 400-6361.

The car is currently at my shop in Chassell, MI in the U.P. However, I also have a house in Green Bay, WI and can easily deliver the car there. I regularly drive to Toledo and Louisville to visit family over the summer, and I could make arrangements to deliver the car in those cities as well. Give me a call and we can discuss.

Cheers!

Robert

Hello, fellas. I have had a few people ask me the same questions, so I wanted to post this for everyone.

This 128 had the convenience and comfort package as well as the sport package. The color is Crimson Red with Coral Red interior.

I upgraded the rear sway bar with a thicker H&R unit. I did not touch the front sway bar, as I was trying to address the inherent understeer that is engineered into all modern BMWs these days. This, along with the square wheel setup (18X8), makes for a far more neutral ride.

Feel free to call or email with any other questions.

Cheers!

Here is an answer to another question: yes, those are Coco Mats (red and black). Thanks for the question!

Absolutely beautiful car and a great price!

Hey, Jrfly9! Thanks for the compliment.

I tell you, I have always loved this car, and I have mixed feelings about selling it. It reminds me, in some ways, of one of my favorite cars that I have owned, a red '87 325is. I loved that car and put over 200K miles on it daily driving it.

I have been driving the 128i quite a lot over the past few weeks, and it really is a pleasure on the country roads here in the U.P.! Anyhow, if it doesn't sell, I may just have to count myself lucky and continue enjoying it. I did manage to sell a Mercedes CLK 500 that I also had advertised, so I did make some room in the shop.

Cheers!

Robert

I have put the car up on an eBay auction.

In an separate, earlier post, you discussed a car that had been hit in the side and repaired. Is this the car that was repaired?
