here are some more comments from other sites:
"Overall the 533i is a collector car in my opinion - but can certainly be used as a daily-driver. Only 10,000 533i's were produced from 1983-1984. Bear in mind, the 528e (`82-`8
, which looks identical from 50 feet away, was produced in huge numbers (over 100,000) - so comparing this to a 533i, you can see why the 533i is indeed, an endangered species."
"I have owned a 1984 533i since 1997. It has been my one and only daily driver. It had 113K miles. when I bought it - and now has 185K miles. Basically, the car has been re-built. Although very expensive to rebuild it throughout the years, it truly is a very rewarding automobile. The 533i, in my opinion, is extremely rare today - almost more so than a E28 M5. If you can find a nice one, buy it.
The chassis (E2 is very solid, and the motor is the kind that made the company famous - In-line-6, M30, SOHC, 181HP, 195lb. ft. torque. Curb Weight: 3,200 lbs. est. 0-60: man. 7.7, auto. 9.4 sec. The E28 5-series (`82-`8 has an enormous trunk (same size as 750iL). Top Speed: 129-134mph."
"533i: A North-American only model sold from 1983-1984 in limited quantities in response to customer complaints that the 528e had lower performance figures than the 1981 528i that it replaced. Equipped with a 181hp 3.2L M30 6-cylinder engine as fitted to the larger 633csi and 733i. It produced 195 lb-ft. torque. The compression ratio was 8.8:1. Top Speed was 134 mph. (man.). The 533i was the fastest sedan sold in the USA in 1983. "

Dallas, my friend Adam purchased your old single turbo supra so I do trust your descriptions. I would like to know if I would be able to look at the vehicle, I am very interested and do have the cash to purchase immediatley. I am interested in several things, specifically the following;
1) Does the A/C blow cold?
2) What work have you done to the vehicle?
3) Does the Dash have any cracks?
4) Does the vehicle have mechanical cooling issues?
Just let me know. I of course live in Tampa and can see the car basically any day. Thanks in advance!
Also, please PM me your contact information when you have the opportunity or just email me at keenan87@gmail.com.
