Thread: FS: Bagged 1998 740IL!

  1. 09-07-2012 11:50 PM #1
    This 1998 BMW 740IL has been up for sale here acouple months back, well the car was traded and somehow I got my hands on it! At first I was just going to use this car to trade for a half ton truck, but I found a powerstroke that I'm going to pull the trigger on soon and so sadly this car needs to go!! I have had this car for 2 months and it has really grown on me! Overall it has been a great and fun daily for me, and with a little TLC could be a awesome show car!

    ( from PO FS thread )

    Odometer 184,xxx I got another odometer with it and this one had all the pixels replaced so I do not know if it is the correct mileage or not. I am not really too concerned though because there is no engine or transmission problems.
    Recent maintenance (done in last 5k)-
    •All control arms
    •Both front speed sensors
    •Brakes pads and rotors all the way around
    •Heater control valves and new hoses
    •Valve cover gaskets
    •Intake gaskets
    •Oil separator
    •Transmission was replaced 20k ago
    There is probably more but I am forgetting
    Also, brand new tires all the way around.

    Problems-
    •The navigation does not work. It needs a new module and I had a MKIV unit it and I decided that it wasn't that great so I sold it to buy other things.
    •Headliner sags (I had fabric to replace it but I'm not going to keep putting money into a car that is getting sold)
    •Paint isn't perfect but that is a given from most 14 year old cars
    •Front bumper has a crack (has had it since I bought it)


    Now to the air system (everything has less than 5k miles on it)-
    •Dual Viar 444 compressors
    •5 Gallon Tank
    •8 valve diaphragm manifold
    •Air odyssey digital gauges
    •AVS chrome 7 position switch box
    •Front Bilstein struts with a dual bellow bag and a custom strut mount
    •Rear is a sleeve bag made by Bagyard (has a Bilstein strut that has been revalved for specific air suspension use.
    •Any kind of questions please don't hesitate to ask.
    Car also has black kidneys and all the chrome is blacked out. Grill is an actual black grill and chrome is covered by black out tape so it can always return to chrome very easily.
    the car is now an inch and a quarter, I would say, lower now. The oilpan is 1/4inch off the ground when air out. When the car is aired up it can go up past stock ride height.

    Im looking for $6000 OBO! Hit me up!
