1972 BMW 2002 Baur Targa,-- Rare European Model. VIN# 2795512 matching/engine/ chassis . Number 512 of 1963 Baur Targa Cabriolets produced by Baur. Manufactured on June 13th 1972 and was delivered to Italy. http://classicandvintagebmw.tumblr.com/02targa (check this site for more info on Baur Targa) Car was imported into the USA in April of 2007. Mileage at the date of sale was 92,250. Prior to purchase, the engine ,suspension and brakes were rebuilt by Jaymic in England. I have many of the old receipts (new clutch, brake calipers, etc.) from Jaymic as well the original owner’s manuals, etc. These repairs were made at round the 85k mileage mark and are documented in repair log. The interior was professionally re-done and a new German square weave carpet kit was installed by the new owner in Los Gatos,CA. During the installation of the carpet , he located a 1962 Italian Lira(coin) under the old carpet kit. That helped to confirm that the car spent its early days in Italy. The coin has been drilled and is attached to the vintage BMW leather key chain along with the original keys and aftermarket gas cap key. The car was re-painted some time in England by the previous owner, the paint still looks good. Only on the hood I can see small bubble paint. The car has some small micro scratches. A new Apline CDA-9883 in-dash w/removable face CD/MP3 receiver(xm/Sirius satellite ready) with iPod connection along with Alpine under dash speakers were installed in September 2007. Door panels and rear passenger panels were not cut. Routine lube, oil & filer changes have been made every 3k miles. Weber carburetor (replaced the Solex) and Pertonix electronic ignition were installed in 08/2010 mileage 98,075. Current mileage is 99,923. Tires are 80% good. Car has a Nardi steering wheel and Cosmic wheels. Dome light too. All lights, turn signals, brake lights, fog lights and rear bumper mounted brake light work. Windshield and all windows are clean/clear and Sonneland rear window on the convertible Targa top is clean/clear as well. I also have an extra windshield that has been wrapped in bubble wrap. Most recent service by Import Doctors in Seattle- 01/2013. Lube, synthetic oil & filter, new water pump and coolant. Mileage at service-99,463. You are welcome to do pre-purchase inspection before the auction ends. I had described the car in best of my knowledge, please ask any questions. I trust this car to go cross-country but the car is sold “AS IS” without any warranty. This vehicle will only go up in value. This is the only one the I come across. |

BMW i3 wait list grows to six months
Tue, Feb 4 2014This could make one real expensive decision a little easier to make. The latest official word is that BMW remains undecided if or when it will expand its sub-brand of i plug-in vehicles beyond the i3 and i8, but the i3 city EV has certainly struck a chord in Europe. Citing BMW executive Ian Robertson, Automotive News Europe reports that the German automaker is running a six-month wait list for the i3, which started sales in Europe in November. Bimmer has taken about 11,000 orders globally, and about 1,200 of those are from the US, where the car will debut in May. BMW executive Harald Krueger recently said that the German automaker will hold off on making plans to broaden the i sub-brand until more sales results come in. That said, BMW has trademarked all of the single-digit "i" names from i1 through i9, so should these EVs remain popular, BMW has room to grow. We won't be surprised if we do see more vehicles, since BMW North America chief Ludwig Willisch is already on record as saying the US demand for the i3 will likely exceed supply this year. For a taste of why, check out our first drive here. Featured Gallery 2014 BMW i3 View 107 Photos News Source: Automotive News - sub. req. Green BMW Electric ev sales wait list
2016 BMW 7 Series spied for the first time ever
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Ladies and gentlemen, Bimmerphiles and automotive voyeurs of all stripes: here is your next-generation BMW 7 Series. Captured in photographs for the first time ever while doing a spot of cold-weather testing in Sweden, this newly slim 7er will most likely debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2015 and launch in the 2016 model year.
Sources indicate that BMW is targeting a much lighter curb weight for the 7 Series, and will use learnings gained with the i3 and i8 development to add carbon fiber-reinforced plastics in the construction. In return we'd expect the new model - which uses the internal model designation "G11" - to offer improvements in handling, acceleration and fuel economy. As with the current 7 Series lineup, expect the engine range to include turbocharged inline-six engines, one or more V8s and a V12 option.
It's fair to say that, with the car's debut still years down the road, that BMW will work to launch with an impressive suite of in-car technology, too. A completely new version of iDrive shouldn't be ruled out. These shots mark the beginning of a long journey to 2015, and we expect to have loads more information to share in the coming months and years, so stay tuned.
Ken Block and friends race light in silly-beautiful Castrol commercial
Wed, 28 May 2014How does one make fast, loud, drifting cars better? Well, you can add more fast, loud, drifting cars or you can add lasers. Either or, really. In this case, Castrol did the right thing and added both, creating a highly stylized commercial for its Edge Titanium motor oil starring South African racer Adrian Zaugg, BMW factory driver Augusto Farfus, Audi DTM and Le Mans staple Mike Rockenfeller and some bloke named Ken Block.
Their cars? No surprise, but Block is in his Ford Fiesta GRC, while Zaugg samples a Lamborghini Aventador and Farfus and Rockenfeller drive along party lines, with a BMW M4 and an Audi R8, respectively. And those cars look good, too, thanks to the creative light and laser work on display.
Take a look below for the video from Castrol.
