Wow!!! what a great find this is.....An original one owner 1983 320 i, 100% rust free California car since new,......in its final year of production.
Since day one this little beauty was owned by a meticulous GermanMechanicwho kept it up better than any other car we have seen in recent years.It was his everyday commuter car up until he recently retired.The car looks runs and drives like it has 20k miles on it, NOT 220k. The car is a gem in every way imaginable. From the way it drives on the freeway at 80 mphto the rock solid drive-trainand handling. This 320i is truly the ultimate driving machine.
The car was purchased new at San Luis Obispo BMW and comes with a nice collection of original books,manuals, pamphlets and dealership literature, which are all in great condition.It is so nice to see everything together with the car....even the "BMW" fuse/light-bulbplastic contained is still perfectly in tact inside the glove box.Lets not forget the pristine and 100% complete tool kit in the trunk.-Spare tire has never been on the road and it is still wrapped with the original Pirelli tire in came with when new....very cool.No exaggeration, but you can literallyeat of the the trunk floor and engine bay.
Perfect Carfax/Auto Check report, certified no accident vehicle. Average Auto Check score is 24-43, this particular car scored an above average score of 47
-The air conditioning blows strong cold air-The heat warms quickly-All levers, controls, buttons, knobs and lights worked perfectly when tested-All gauges show perfect readings-Red dash cluster lights illuminate like they should
The clutch is perfect along with the brakes, bushings, shocks, misc suspension partsand everything else that you would expect a very obsessiveowner would do to his baby.
The car gives the impression that this was the owners pride and joy.
Cosmetically the Beemer could not be more original and untouched. It is absolutely stunning! The safari beige factory coatof paint is near mint and looks amazing!The car was always kept inside the garage and has never been exposed to harsh weather conditions.There are no dents. The body and chassis are 100% rust free without a single spec of rust, repair, blister, or bubbles anywhere whatsoever.There are a few minor chips and minimal cosmetic imperfections, significantlyless than you would even expect for a 5 year old car letalone a 35 year old one.
The interior is crisp and clean. Non smoker/garage kept vehicle since new.The seats were nicely redone with the correct factory layout, very close match to the original fabric.The carpeting is in great shape and does show some normal discoloration. The dash is almost perfect with one small crack (see closeup dash pic)The door panels are excellent and still retain the original fabric.The headliner is beautiful and the sunroofopens with ease.
Misc-rubber seals, weather stripping and trim are all in phenomenalcondition.-All of the glass is original to the car and the windshield does not even have a visible chip.-Bumpers and moldings are all healthy rubber (not dried out) and aluminiumand stainless are superb.
While tii's are going through the roof, these cars are also rapidlyincreasing in value and good examples are the next in line for collectors.
We are confident that this could be one of the finest 1983 BMW's of this pedigree availableanywhere in the world. Whomever winds up with this one is going to be a very proud new owner!
