This is a dream car that I found after MANY years of searching. I will attach below the information I received from the previous owner which details the condition and specifications of the vehicle. Unfortunately, my new residence will not have a garage and I will have to let this classic E21 treasure fall into the hands of another BMW enthusiast to appreciate.

This auction is for an imported E21 323i with many OEM Alpina appearance package. The headlights, grills, bumpers, emblems, exhaust, brakes, shocks(Bilstein}, camber settings, steering wheel, shift boot, seats, differential gearing, rear finish panel are all BMW OEM Alpina accessories. The car has a powerful 5-speed transmission, with good clutch. The undercarriage is mint; best I have ever seen out of my personal cars ever owned. You can still see blue in many places underneath & there are no worn or rusty areas. The body is in good condition with nice clear coat, no fading or peeling anywhere; no mismatched or blended panels. Chrome is all very very nice, no need for even chrome polish- shines very strong around all windows, bumpers, & moldings. The front kidney grill could be redone, but is only dull & may merely need to be polished. Other than this, the exterior does have a bubble forming by the quarter window smaller than a penny & there is a stress mark that won't show up in photos on the passenger side front fender. Vehicle comes with a sunroof, front and rear stress bar, battery in rear trunk for better weight distribution/performance, A/C needs to be recharged. This car comes with special Momo wheels and unique side skirts.

The interior is blue with the exception of the front seats, which are black recaro. All manual options with no defects, radio has been removed. There are 2 cracks in the dash about an inch long each, but not unsightly looking. Carpet is extremely clean, as well as all knobs & accessories. Suspension is very solid, with no noises or kinks, handling is very firm in this light of a car & the exhaust is very BMW exotic, in my opinion. It can easily be related to the E46 M3 with full Supersprint. If you don't believe me, look up E21 Alpina on Youtube for reference of how vicious this exhaust sounds, I always gets compliments & looks.

Car pulls strong through every gear, brakes are secure feeling, body & interior is something to be very proud of for given age. Actual mileage is unknown. Engine looks to be replaced with a M20 engine by a previous owner, as well as all headlights, brakes, control arm bushings, standard tower mounts, timing belts, water pump, tensioner, pulleys, intake gasket, crank sensor, slave clutch cylinder, battery before last winter, oil changes with synthetic oill, rear trailing arm bushings, guibo center driveshaft support & more.

Vehicle has been driven to many events on the East Coast & Midwest area including up to Minnesota, Delaware, Michigan, & Virginia. Tail of the Dragon, Georgia, Florida, Maryland, etc. Never missed a beat & feels healthy at 85-90 mph on the expressway.

This car has received placement at vintage shows, been acknowledged in PBMW magazine twice, Eurotuner, and Klutch Republic Magazine.

Good luck bidding!
