AI Listing Summary

This 1987 BMW 325is coupe features an S50 engine swap, five-speed manual transmission, and several modifications including coilovers and an M3 big brake kit. While it presents well with European-market headlights and Recaro-style seats, mileage inconsistencies and the need for post-engine swap inspection may affect its value.
