This car is a project, as the car was in storage for about a year prior to being sold to me. I have spent a large chunk of change (more than twice my asking price) in the last 6 months on this car, but I have since replaced it with another BMW and I am willing to cut my losses. I have 5 cars in front of a house with parking for (4), and I am 19 years old paying insurance on (2) cars - I am very motivated.

Current Issues:
-The car overheats... This started 2 months into ownership, when one day the temperature guage stopped working and the electronic fans stopped turning on. I put +12V on the fans and they turned on, so it could be a short, a relay, wiring, etc. - but probably a minor issue along those lines. Both issues happened at once, so probably related.

-The car has a slow oil leak out of the right-side valve cover once the car gets warmed up, probably a cracked valve cover gasket as a result of the time in storage.

-The car needs a tune up, bad.

If you're interested in buying the car it does run and drive, and I do take it to run errands, but if you intend to go farther than 6 blocks from my driveway you will need to get it trailered home. You could use this car as a roller, and remove the hybrid components (which would take a few hours, at most) and transplant any variety of air-cooled possibilities into the car, which still has all its original engine mounts, or you could fix what's in there and get a porsche hybrid for a fraction of the cost of building one from scratch. This car has loads of potential, but it is not the car for me.

The Price:
$8500 or best offer

Car Location:
Southern California, 92653

Send me a PM if you're interested, the car is available for showing all week during the evening, or on the weekend most of the day.
