Cherished and restored 1983 BMW 320i 5 speed manual. Cold air conditioning. Full documentation since the 1980\'s. Originally a California car. It now resides in Texas.\r\n- I am 45 years old and have been an automotive enthusiast for most of my life, having owned classics ranging from restoration projects to driver quality to near concours.

I will give the potential buyer an accurate assessment of this vehicle. \r\n- 3 inch thick stack of receipts, invoices, documentation since the 1980\'s\r\n- Based on records, it appears that the original owner had the vehicle until 1993. Second owner treated the vehicle as a family heirloom and sold it to the third owner in 2017. It was a garage queen for the third owner and was sparingly driven and maintained.

I am the 4th owner based on my understanding of the records I have on hand. It sits in my garage as a garage queen.\r\n- Vehicle was taken off the road and restoration started in 2010 with approximately 140,000 miles on the odometer. \r\n- Restoration entails exterior, interior and mechanical. \r\n- Less than 1,500 miles have been added between 2010 till now (2025)\r\n- Over $25,000 of restoration/service/repair receipts within the past 1,500 miles. Mostly from 2010-2013.

It\'s equivalent to approximately $40,000+ of restoration work in today\'s inflation adjusted prices.\r\n- This vehicle is a very presentable driver quality car ( I regularly attend car shows, have associated with judges and attend Concours d Elegence on occasions). It\'s not a nut/bolt restoration done by a marque specialist which runs over 6 figures these days. I have been misled many times in the past by descriptions that did not match the actual condition of the vehicle ( through trained eyes) and I don\'t want to disappoint potential buyers of this one.

This is a nice driver, and everything is done well, its not a 6 figure nut/bolt restoration, and it\'s not a 90-100 point car.\r\n- This is an analog car and you really feel the mechanical workings of it. It\'s not fast by today\'s standard but the joy of driving this vehicle is not speed.\r\n- Vehicle drives well and the air conditioning can keep up with the Texas heat (this is a 80\'s European car. Please have realistic expectations).\r\n- I have taken the vehicle on 1hr+ drives in 90 degree heat with the AC on and it performed as it should. \r\n- This is my personal car and I have the title in my name.\r\n- $16,500.

Would consider payment in cash, check, gold, silver, platinum. \r\n\r\n713-909-9111 cell (text message works best for me)\r\n\r\n
