Single-Family-Owned 1982 BMW 733i

This 1982 BMW 733i was purchased new by the current owner’s father and now shows 79k miles following registration history in New Hampshire and Connecticut. Finished in Graphite Metallic over Parchment leather upholstery, the car is powered by a 3.2-liter M30B32 inline-six mated to a three-speed automatic transmission. Equipment includes a power sunroof, 14″ turbine-spoke alloy wheels, an AM/FM/cassette stereo, cruise control, and air conditioning. This E23 is offered by the seller on behalf of the current owner with a window sticker, manufacturer’s literature, a Carfax report, and Connecticut registration.

The E23 was developed under BMW designer Paul Bracq as a replacement for the outgoing E3 model, and this example is finished in Graphite Metallic (087). Exterior details include dual side mirrors, a power sunroof, quad headlights, a retractable antenna, and dual exhaust tips. A September 2006 entry on the Carfax report lists an accident with another motor vehicle that resulted in damage to the rear. There is corrosion on the underside of the bumpers, and close-up photographs of the exterior finish and trim are shown in the gallery below.
