Beginning my 128i search
Hello -
I'm beginning my search for a M-sport 128i, can also be a non m sport. Must be 6speed manual. Pretty flexible on miles as long as the relevant preventative/maintenance is done. I'm in central nyc but would travel if needed. excited to see what's out there! |

Seemingly not much these days. I bought mine when these cars were known but not terribly appreciated. Even then it was a struggle. The shady buy here pay here lot where I bought my car said he couldn’t understand why he was being flooded with calls for a beat up BMW.
Best of luck with your search. |

Good luck on your search! Make it a routine to check common places several times a week.
If your heart is set on an m-sport it may take quite awhile depending on what your ok with in terms of mileage, number of owners, accident history etc.. I saw this recently on C&B. M-sport 6spd was sold for <10k, not bad! https://carsandbids.com/auctions/rj7...bmw-128i-coupe For me I wanted purely a project car with a solid maintenance history. msport or sports package, although nice, were not my priorities. Only priority was a 6spd manual. Even with a base manual, these are still hard to find. Maybe only a handful for sale at any given time nationwide. These cars are already 10+ years old, so it's due time to start replacing shocks, struts, springs, bushings so not having a 10yr old sports suspension was fine with me! I also plan on stiffening up my rear subframe bushings so while I have the rear subframe down, I can add the missing rear swaybar on these base models. Only regret is not having sports seats but of course not impossible to swap out for sports seats from another e82 or e92, or e92 m3 for that matter Anyway good luck! It's all about the journey so even during this time in finding one of these gems is all part of the experience. |

Don't discount having a car shipped, it is not that expensive. I find limiting my geo to local it would take me a year or more to find a car , given there are like 6 for sale in the entire country give or take. Good Luck, I love mine!
