THE OVERVIEW
Offered for an appreciating new owneris this unique classic 1978 BMW 320i 5 speed two-door sedan!

THE BODY AND TRIM
The exterior of this 1978 BMW is in fair condition with shoddy black re-paint with LOTS of drips and imperfections. Yes there is some corrosion in the floors but the important shock towers and other other structural areas are super solid!

THE INTERIOR
As I hope is articulated in the photos, the interior of this classic 320i is in fair, somewhat stripped out condition with working lights, blinkers, horn, speedometer, gas gauge and temp gauge. The dash has cracks, the headliner is torn with jammed crank, the back seat is very nice, the door panels and decent with working windows.

THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE
This 1978 BMW starts easily and RUNS VERY WELL with great power, acceleration and exhaust note, smooth shifting transmission, decent braking and suspension and steering.Check out the test drive video here:https://youtu.be/9e65TVy3wmI
