The BMW E30 is known as one of the Bavarian automaker’s greatest hits. This compact car was available as a sedan, coupe, wagon and cabriolet. The E30 is renowned for its signature BMW driving dynamics. So, if you’re an E30 fan, consider buying this 1987 BMW 325i Cabriolet with 70,000 miles on its silky smooth straight six engine. It’s a lovely weekend driver that can even be pressed into daily use when required.
Exterior and Interior
Wearing a lovely silver suit, this 1987 BMW 325i Cabriolet showcases the timeless lines that the E30 brought when it was introduced in 1982. This car also has its original-style alloys, a blue soft top, and a body-colored rear spoiler. Take a few moments to appreciate the car’s signature BMW kidney grille, its twin circular headlamps and overall good looks before we head inside. The interior is a surprise, with red leather upholstery for all four seats, and plenty of convenience features. You’ve got power windows, power mirrors, and power door locks. Then, there appears to be air conditioning and a trip computer. Meanwhile, the original BMW radio has been swapped out for something more modern courtesy of Alpine. It’s a CD receiver with USB and AUX inputs, as well as FM radio, of course. We also spy three auxiliary gauges installed low down in the center stack, monitoring water temperature, oil pressure and battery voltage. Of course, the driver faces a classic '80s analog gauge cluster that’s supremely easy to read. There’s even an MPG gauge, although we think the 150 mph speedometer and 7,000 rpm tachometer will be the most looked at. As for luggage space, BMW’s thoughtful packaging means that you’ve still got plenty, despite the space needed to store the convertible top.
Engine
The 2.5-liter naturally aspirated inline-six that lies under the hood of this 1987 BMW 325i Cabriolet is one of the smoothest of the time. Featuring Bosch Motronic fuel injection, the engine was factory rated to make 168hp and 164lb-ft. Thanks to the car’s light weight, 5-speed manual gearbox, and rear-wheel drive set-up, it’s enough to have plenty of fun with. The MacPherson strut front suspension, semi-trailing arm rear suspension, and ventilated disc brakes all make for a package that will entertain enthusiast drivers.
