Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This is a modified 1983 BMW 533i with a turbocharger and other performance upgrades. While it presents well with its European bumpers and Style 5 wheels, the car has some noted wear and an inoperative radio that could be improved. A mileage discrepancy in the Carfax needs investigation.

The car has several modifications and replacements, including a turbocharger and MegaSquirt ECU.

The body was refinished, and there's a mileage inconsistency noted in the Carfax report, which raises concerns about the accuracy of the odometer reading.
