Some cars are more than just a means of transportation... they are
rolling pieces of history that capture the spirit of an era.
Imagine the open road ahead, the sound of a classic inline-four
engine, and the satisfaction of driving a car that defined the
sports sedan for a generation. This BMW 320i is not just a way to
get from point A to point B, it is a statement, a conversation
starter, and a ticket to a world where driving is an experience,
not a chore. If you have ever dreamed of owning a true classic, now
is your chance with this 1981 BMW 320i E21.
Step inside and you are greeted by an interior that blends classic
BMW design with thoughtful upgrades. The standout feature is a pair
of genuine Recaro sport seats, offering both comfort and support
with extendable under-leg bolsters. The original dash and gauge
cluster retain their vintage charm, while the center console and
door panels, though showing minimal wear, add to the authentic,
well-loved character. The carpets and headliner are in good
condition for a car of this vintage, making the cabin a welcoming
place for both driver and passengers.
Under the hood, you will find a robust 1.8-liter inline-four engine
that has been well maintained and delivers a smooth, reliable
performance. Paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, this BMW
offers engaging driving dynamics, crisp gear changes, and
responsive handling. The factory limited-slip differential ensures
excellent traction, while power brakes and power steering provide
confidence on the road. Recent maintenance includes a replaced fuel
tank, and the engine bay presents as a solid driver's platform
ready for many more miles of enjoyment.
