1983 BMW 533I MANUAL SHIFT ORIGINAL CONDITION E28

1983 BMW 5-Series Description

HERE IS A STUNNING ORIGINAL CONDITION 1983 BMW E28 SEDAN. GREAT COLOR COMBO, WHITE WITH BROWN LEATHER. ONLY 120K. AS LEGEND HAS IT THIS WAS THE FASTEST PRODUCTION 4 DOOR SEDAN AVAILABLE IN THE YEAR 1983. THESE CARS ARE GAINING IN COLLECTIBLITLY AND VALUE. THIS CAR BEING A MANUAL SHIFT IN ORIGINAL CONDITION WITH DECENT MILES IS SURE TO BE A SOUND INVESTMENT. ASIDE FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER, THERE HAVE BEEN TWO OTHER OWNERS, THEN ME MAKES FOUR OWNERS. THIS CAR SEEMS TO HAVE LIGHT USE FOR THE MOST PART. ALL THE PAINT LOOKS ORIGINAL EXCEPT FOR THE PASSENGER FRONT DOOR, AND IT MATCHES REALLY CLOSE. THE CARPET IS BLACK, I SUSPECT ITS NOT ORIGINAL. COULD USE A BIT OF GLUEING AND TUCKING HERE AND THERE, SOME FLOOR MATS WOULD BE NICE. CARPET IS GOOD SHAPE. THIS CAR WAS INTENDED TO BE A FUN DRIVER FOR ME. LIFE TAKES OVER, NO TIME. THE CAR STARTS RIGHT UP AND IDLES SMOOTH. THE MOTOR SOUNDS STRONG, WITH NO MISSES OR SMOKE. IT COULD BENEFIT FROM A VALVE ADJUSTMENT TO QUIET ANY SLIGHT TICKING WHICH IS NOT UNTYPICAL. THE CLUTCH AND TRANNY PULL SMOOTH AND WITH AMPLE POWER. A BLAST TO DRIVE. GETS MANY THUMBS UP. AS FAR AS DRIVING THIS CAR HOME HUNDREDS OF MILES AWAY, NO PROMISES, I HAVE ONLY DRIVEN IT 20 OR SO MILES AT A TIME, NO ISSUES, I HAVE NOT TAKEN IT ON A 100 MILE JOURNEY. THE CAR HAS SAT FOR THE BETTER PART OF THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS. AS FAR AS RUST IS CONCERNED THIS CAR HAS A BIT, BUT ITS MOSTLY RUST FREE, INSIDE THE SPARE WHEEL TUB IS A ROT HOLE, AROUND THE WINDOW FRAMES IS SOME SURFACE RUST. CHECK PHOTOS. THE ON BOARD COMPUTER THAT CALCULATES NOTHING IMPORTANT IS NOT FUNTIONAL. THE CRANK SENSORS ON THE FLYWHEEL ARE REPLACED, THE ECU THAT CONTROLS THE FUEL INJECTION IS REFURBISHED. THE CAR STARTS RIGHT UP. THERE IS A BATTERY DRAW IF YOU LET IT SIT FOR DAYS ON END IT WILL DRAW DOWN THE BATTERY. FACTORY RADIO PLAYS. A/C WORKS, IT SOUNDS A BIT CHALLENGED BUT BLOWS COLD. YOU CAN SEE BODY DAMAGE ON THE HOOD AND ON THE RIGHT REAR QUARTER, AS WELL AS A TEAR IN THE REAR SEAT, A FEW CRACKS IN THE DASH. COME BY AND INSPECT IT YOURSELF AT 44 MULBERRY ST WEST SPRINGFIELD MA 01089. FRED 413-531-2966. I LOVE THIS CAR AS A DRIVING COLLECTIBLE. ITS IN PERFECT AFFORDABLE CONDITION WITH ROOM TO IMPROVE AND APPRECIATE. TIRES ARE GREAT. THIS IS A NO RESERVE AUCTION. I WILL END THE AUCTION IF A SALE IS COMPLETED LOCALLY.
