1983 BMW 3-Series

Description: For your consideration is this one of the finest preserved 320i BMWs in the U.S. If you are a discriminating buyer and simply want the best, this car is for you. Many collectors have learned it’s better to buy a car that needs nothing and can be driven and enjoyed immediately - this is such a car. The interior is near perfect. The exterior is also super nice, no rust and no filler. The paint is the original Metallic Baltic Blue with clearcoat. Original tinted glass.The car hood/bonnet has been repainted. I see absolutely no signs of rust whatsoever. It is clean underneath. All the bright trim is super shiny with absolutely no oxidation. The engine runs smooth. Recent purchases include Bosch battery, tires, A/C compressor, injectors, Hood and truck badges and clutch master cylinder. The radio is original Blaupunkt . Be sure you know the changes that occurred in the middle of the 320i series, in 1980 they changed engines, adding a catalytic converter vs. the old thermal reactors, better incorporated powered side mirrors and upgraded the manual transmission to a 5 speed. MPG was up to EPA (as measured at the time) 29city/36hwy. They also lightened up the car 170lbs. Quoting from the article link below "...the 1980-83 320i was endowed with a better power-to-weight ratio than the earlier 2.0-liter version of 1977-79". This car will get noticed at the BMW club meets and other shows in the area. What sets it apart is its completely stock and looks stunningly new!. People go crazy over the 2002 BMWs but this initial 3-series BMW had many refinements like updated styling, fully independent suspension, ergonomic interior layout, and fuel injection. Included are: Techalon All Weather Car Cover, LeBra front end cover, Matching Windshield Shade, floor mats, Spare Sport (3 spoke) Steering Wheel, OEM mud flaps (installed) and documentation binder with original sale reciept. The AirConditionerworks as designed.Classic BMW 5 speed that's fun to drive! Finally, spare reconditioned engine, starter and alternator that came available when a "KIT Car" project (vin# WBAAG3302D9000299) was canceled. See last photo. Thanks for your consideration.
