Subsequent work on this 1987 BMW 325i convertible involved repainting the body in its factory Cinnabar Red, overhauling the 2.5-liter M20 inline-six and power steering system, installing Bilstein shocks and H&R springs, and replacing the soft top, brakes, and more as detailed below. The car rides on 15″ Alpina-style wheels and is further equipped with a five-speed manual transmission, ellipsoid headlights, and yellow-lens auxiliary lights. Inside, the front sport seats have been reupholstered in cognac leatherette with plaid cloth inserts, and other appointments include air conditioning, cruise control, and a Kenwood head unit.
The car left the factory finished in Cinnabar Red (138), and it was repainted following the seller’s acquisition. A replacement beige convertible soft top was installed at that time, and additional exterior details include ellipsoid headlights, yellow-lens auxiliary lights, a power antenna, and power-adjustable side mirrors with color-keyed housings as well as bumpers with polished accents. The brake light mounted to the trunk lid has been removed and the struts for the hood and trunk were replaced in 2022 along with window weather seals.
Alpina-style 15″ wheels by Maxilite are mounted with 205/55 Accelera PHI-R tires, and a compact spare resides in the trunk. Bilstein B4 shocks and H&R lowering springs were installed in 2022 along with Zimmerman brake rotors and replacement pads and hoses at each corner. Additional work included overhauling the power steering system and replacing the sway bar bushings. The manually adjustable front sport seats and the rear bench were reupholstered in cognac leatherette with plaid cloth inserts following the seller’s acquisition. The upper portion of the dashboard was also replaced and the air conditioning system was converted to employ R134a refrigerant. Additional interior appointments include an onboard computer, cruise control, a Kenwood head unit, tan carpeted floor mats, and power windows. The M Tech steering wheels fronts a 140-mph speedometer and a 7k-rpm tachometer as well as gauges for coolant temperature, fuel level, and instant fuel economy.
The 2.5-liter M20 inline-six features Bosch fuel injection and was factory rated at 168 horsepower and 164 lb-ft of torque. The fluids and filters were changed, and further work at that time included replacing the following parts:
- Timing belt
- Water pump
- Thermostat
- Alternator
- Fuel injectors
- Catalytic converters
- Accessory drive belts
- Oxygen sensor
- Coolant level sensor
- Camshaft position sensor
- Spark plugs
- Fuel pump relay
- Main relay
- Heater relay
- Valve cover gasket
- Exhaust manifold gaskets
- Camshaft seal
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transmission. Work on this vehicle included changing the transmission and differential fluids as well as replacing the driveshaft carrier support, guibo, and the seals for the output shaft and shift rod.
