Summary
This 1981 BMW 320i, finished in Safari Beige over Mocha leatherette, remained in California until 2022 and features a 1.8-liter M10 inline-four paired with a three-speed automatic transmission. It has been modified with European-specification bumpers and H&R lowering springs, and received extensive maintenance in 2024 including replacement of the water pump and front control arms. The car shows 247k miles, has a clean Carfax report, and is offered with a clean New Jersey title, though corrosion is noted on the front valance and cracks are present in the dashboard.
