Portland, Oregon, United States

You are bidding on a driver quality restored black on black 1972 BMW 2002. I purchased this car in May of 2012 in Hillsboro OR and have spent the last two years having it professionally restored. I am the third owner of this car. The original owner handed it down to his nephew and I purchased it from that nephew. The car had been stored in the family barn since the late 90’s before I purchased it. So I guess technically it’s a barn find. Since the car had been in storage for the past 12+ years the body was in really great shape with no rust in any of the usual 2002 problem areas, shock towers, floor pans, spare tire well, running boards etc. All are really solid. I’ve included some before and after pictures of some of the common problem areas before they were cleaned and re coated with fresh undercoating to keep them protected. The cars original color was malanga but it was repainted to (schwartz) black back sometime in the 80’s. During the 2 year restoration I had the car taken down to bare metal and re painted this same black. The interior of the car has been reupholstered in black vinyl including front/rear seats and door panels front/rear. The door panels were replaced with Aardvark racing wooden panels before they were reupholstered. As far as I can tell the carpet is original. If so it’s in incredible shape. Beyond the restoration the following upgrades have been performed: BMW OEM BBS wheels, BMW OEM Sport Recaro seats, New Weber 32/26 carburetor, flush European turn signals and Hella driving lights. Here is a high level overview of the work performed during the restoration, detailed work below. Bare metal repaint in Fall 2013 All receipts for this work will go with the car. The car runs well and the engine pulls strong. It handles well and stops just as well. After all the mechanical work I would expect nothing less. Paint is a 9/10, interior 9/10, mechanical 9/10, chrome 8/10 (some of the chrome, drip rail, window trim has a few scratches), engine bay 7/10 (mechanically sound just could use detailing). The engine has approximately 1000 miles on the rebuild. The engine rebuild included the following: New pistons While the engine was out the following was done: New transmission mounts The brakes were professionally rebuilt including: New brake hoses at all four
corners The front suspension was professionally rebuilt including: New front control arms. The previous owner had performed the following work before I purchased the car: New steering guibo The body includes the following: New Ireland Engineering front
spoiler In addition to everything listed
above the following has been replaced. Clean Title in hand. Enjoy this car as a daily driver or keep it for the weekends and car shows. Buyer to pay for shipping from Portland OR or local pickup. I do require a 500$ deposit within 72 hours of close of auction. |

Xcar rates AWD vs. FWD vs. RWD
Tue, Feb 24 2015With snow and ice blanketing large swathes of the United States over the past few weeks, commuting hasn't been easy. Among some drivers, there's an ongoing debate about how much all-wheel drive really helps when it gets slippery and whether rear-drive is as bad in slick conditions as many people think. Xcar Films puts some of those beliefs to the test in its latest video by showing off three very different cars taking on a trio of low-grip challenges. Xcar's picks for the test include the fairly plebeian, all-wheel drive Subaru Impreza, the somewhat plush, rear-drive BMW 120d and the sporty, front-drive Renault Megane RS 275 Trophy. Things start out easy with a hydraulic plate forcing the back end out on a wet skid pad. From there, the tests get really interesting with a slalom on simulated ice, and the cars finish with a high-speed cornering challenge through a soaked turn. While an obvious winner emerges in the end, keep in mind this is hardly a scientific test of grip. For better accuracy, all three vehicles should be wearing identical tires, and the same driver should be behind the wheel of each one. Still, Xcar's examination is a fun chance to see how vehicles react when things get slick.

Tesla in talks with BMW about batteries, charging collaborations
Wed, Nov 26 2014With Toyota and Daimler no longer holding Tesla shares, the electric vehicle company might be looking for a new partner – possibly a Bavarian one. In a new interview with Germany's Der Spiegel, CEO Elon Musk confirmed that he has had talks with BMW execs about future collaboration. "We are talking about whether we can collaborate in battery technology or charging stations," Musk said in the interview, according to Reuters. However, a Tesla spokesperson has tempered things by saying no formal agreements are in place at the moment. In the same interview, Musk reportedly praised BMW's use of carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic in its i sub-brand offerings, and said he would like to have a battery factory in Germany in the next five or six years. The possibility of technological cooperation between Tesla and BMW has been a hot topic this year. In June, Musk reportedly met with BMW execs, and the two companies were also rumored to have met with Nissan to discuss charging technology. When Daimler sold off its shares, there was talk of it opening the way for possible collaboration between the two automakers, as well.
Audi leading rival BMW in worldwide luxury sales race
Tue, 11 Mar 2014If you thought competition among the German luxury automakers was hot before, it looks like things are just getting started. For the first two months of the year, Audi has sold more cars than BMW worldwide by just 383 cars.
Audi claims to have sold 242,400 vehicles through February, up 9.3 percent from last year, compared to 242,017 units from BMW, up 8.9 percent, in the same period. While the advantage is tiny, its implications could be huge because Bimmer has been the leader in the premium car segment for the last nine consecutive years. Mercedes-Benz lags behind them somewhat at 229,630 vehicles through February. According to Bloomberg, at this time last year Audi had sold 429 fewer cars than BMW.
The growth is all part of Volkswagen Group's goal to become the world's largest automaker. It currently ranks in second when its heavy truck businesses are considered. The German automotive giant also wants to be the world's leading premium carmaker. "Competition in the premium segment is more intense than ever," said Audi CEO Rupert Stadler to Bloomberg.
