1972 BMW 2002 Racing Dynamics “Roundie” E10 If ever there was an automotive trendsetter, BMW's 2002 was
it. This is the car that literally spawned the soon-to-be-popular
Sport GT category and, in the end, was one of the main reasons that the
Bavarian Motor Werks became the successful car company that it is today. Speed Sports is proud to offer this ultra clean example
of a “Roundie” BMW 2002. This car with
its extremely well documented history and great performance upgrades, I am sure
will be very desirable and sought after.
It is rare to find a car of this caliber today. We have a 4” thick folder of documents, original
manuals, receipts and a logbook of everything done to this car. Most of the work was done at a well-known local
BMW shop Mike O’Hara. The records date
back to the mid-80’s and includes the last 2 owners. The car was purchased by the most recent owner with 54800 miles
in 1991; the speedo was replaced 3 months later with a higher top speed speedo
that had 27790 miles. Doing the math,
this means the car has 86k original miles.
Very, low miles for a 42-year-old car.
The Prior owner spent $$$ on its restoration and performance
upgrades. I could not think of a better
built 2002 than this one, everything was done right. All of the Racing Dynamic upgrades , the
suspension, and engine upgrades really make this a great Sports Car. The matching Racing Dynamics wheels, steering
wheel, spoiler and shift knob are in excellent condition and give this car a
great stance. The suspension is all
Bilstien performance shocks and springs, big sway bars make it handle like it
is on rails. We replaced the old
Yokohama A-509 tires with more modern rubber, and it goes down the road
straight and true. The suspension is
very comfortable and not too harsh. The
engine was redone in 1988 and upgraded, about 40k ago, it was a complete, fresh, blue
printed rebuild. It has Weber performance carburetors and performance exhaust
with a cookie cutter exhaust tip. The motor starts right up and runs very smooth,
with no smoke or bad noise. We replaced some hoses on it, and gave it a full inspection
as well as an oil change when we acquired the car. I have put a couple hundred miles on this car running around
town and it is a real hoot to drive. The paint is very good looking, we had the front spoiler repainted, but the rest is how we got it. It does not have any rust anywhere. It is solid in all the bad areas that these car typically have. Floors, strut towers, rear shock mounts and all suspension points are perfect. There are no surprises here. The Paint is very glossy and has little marks or rock chips. Again it has NO Rust what so ever! The interior has Recaro seats and newer carpet, door panels
and rear parcel tray. It is all in
excellent condition. It has had some nice trunk panels built to
protect things from denting the inside of the trunk and finish it off
cleanly. Other non-stock upgrades are;
Alpine stereo system and alarm and power door and trunk locks/release. For whatever reason the car has been driven very little over
the last 14 years. It was stored properly in a climate controlled shop and we
made sure to take all the proper steps when we brought it back into regular
use. This car is strong enough to be daily driven, autocross or
kept in any collection. We have gone through this car extensively, and it is in excellent mechanical condition. Runs very smooth and strong. It has had a full tune up with distributor cap, rotor, wires, plugs, filters, alternator, thermostat and oil change. Every time I drive
this car, I wish I could just keep it forever! Call 503 475 8078 Josh or Matt 503 819 9007 for details Inspections prior to end of auction are welcome.

Which car should win 2015 World Green Car of the Year?
Wed, Apr 1 2015There were three finalists for the World Green Car of the Year announced about a month ago at the Geneva Motor Show: the BMW i8, the Mercedes-Benz S 500 Plug-In Hybrid and the Volkswagen Golf GTE. With the New York Auto Show upon us and the winner scheduled to be announced tomorrow, we thought it's high time to ask our readers which one should win. There were seven other vehicles named to the finalists list: the Hyundai x35/Tucson Fuel Cell, the Volvo XC90 T8 Twin Engine, the Audi A3 Sportback E-Tron, the BMW X5 xDrive40e, the Kia Soul EV, the Nissan e-NV200 and the Opel Adam 1.0 Direct Injection Turbo ecoFLEX Start. Would you have named one of these to the top three list instead? POLL 14386429 Green BMW Mercedes-Benz Volkswagen 2015 ny auto show world green car of the year vw golf gte
BMW planning to stretch i3 into i5 family hauler?
Sat, 30 Nov 2013If you're sweet on the new BMW i3 but wish it had more space to carry people and stuff, we've got good news for you. According to Autocar, BMW is planning on stretching the platform that underpins the i3 to create a new model, expected to be called i5.
The stretch job would add an extra four inches of legroom in the back and another six inches of rear overhang to the benefit of cargo space. The result would create a vehicle longer than the current Mini Countryman - although the next Countryman is likely to be even larger. As Autocar points out, the process of extending the i3's composte passenger cell likely wouldn't be as difficult or cost-intensive as lengthening a conventional metal chassis, although the rear doors would need to be re-engineered.
Whether the resulting vehicle would more closely resemble a hatchback, wagon, minivan or something in between remains to be seen, however BMW is said to have already registered the nameplates i1 through i8, signalling that the possibility is at least there to add more members to its new EV family.
BMW i8's three-cylinder sounds like it's shaping up quite nicely
Tue, 25 Mar 2014We've run across some rather interesting news... or perhaps we should say interesting sounds. The folks from Bimmerpost have scrounged up a short video showing a preproduction BMW i8 running through a few gears in Sport mode at a quick pace, and if you were concerned that the somewhat eco-friendly nature of the upcoming German sports car would neuter its ability to stir the aural senses, fret not.
Judging by the lovely noise coming from the engine compartment of the i8 in the video, BMW's expertise in tuning high-strung, small-bore engines - remember, BMW Motorrad has quite the penchant for well-conceived motorcycle engines - has come through loud and clear. Now, it's worth mentioning that BMW's controversial Active Sound technology will be included with the i8, so the production car may not sound exactly like this version, which is running with the tech disabled. Owners won't have the ability to disable Active Sound on production i8s.
In related news, Bimmerpost reports that BMW will equip the i8 with an external Active Sound Design system to go along with its Pedestrian Protection System. That means those on the outside will likely hear piped engine recordings from the rear and a sort of "howl" from the front in order to warn pedestrians that the otherwise quiet (when running on electricity, that is) car is approaching. It will also feature technology that can stop the car before contacting a pedestrian.
