1974 BMW Model 2002

A Clean and solid 1974- BMW 2002.?Rust free.  An all Original California car purchased new at Ocean Motors in Santa Monica, Ca. 11/1974. Has matching numbers with all original body panels and parts.

A rare and highly desirable internationally collectible BMW in a most desirable and very striking all orange original color paint with a matching black interior. ?Headliner is clean, with no tears. Runs perfect, feels and looks like new, all original, nothing customized.?an absolutely exceptional example of an original southern California car.?This is a great looking and driving1974 BMW model 2002.

The great visibility from the “glass bubble” cockpit really adds to the fun, and you can see everything really well.  Growing up my children all drove the “pumpkin”.  ?The BMW 2002 was the high performance limited edition model (1972-74) of the 2002 model line which changed the automobile world forever with the introduction of an everyday compact 4 seater car with a measure of sportiness and sophistication, that along with BMW's legendary reputation for engineering and high quality construction, caught the attention of sport car enthusiasts the world over.?This car is an absolute joy to drive. Being very light weight, it is extremely peppy it is a blast to be behind the wheel of. If you've owned a 2002 you already know why they make such great drivers. They were used as track cars and still are in SCCA racing.

The dash is great, with an almost unheard of condition of no cracks, and no hardening. Headliner is excellent, with no tears.

This classic BMW has been in my family since it was purchased new.  I have the original sales contract, maintenance logs, sales brochure and glove box manuals in their original plastic sleeve.  Also comes with the small BMW tool kit that came with the vehicle. 

It has been garaged and is in great original shape.  The engine and automatic transmission have been rebuilt and have few miles on them since the rebuild.  The car has air conditioning but it needs to be recharged.

The car comes with lots of extra parts.  The engine currently has a weber carburetor.  Included in the sale is an additional weber carb and the original Solex carburetor.  I have an additional Solex carburetor that can be used as parts to rebuild the original.  Also comes with the original air filter.  Lots of other parts including new chrome trim pieces that were never fitted on the car.  I also have the original Blaupunkt stereo that came with the car when new.

 The car was repainted a few years ago in its original BMW orange color.  The seats have been reupholstered.  Because the car has been garaged the dash has no cracks or dings.  There are some negatives to the car but it runs great and is in original condition.

Most reliable cars and trucks of 2022

Tue, Nov 15 2022

Related: Least reliable cars and trucks of 2022   For years now, Consumer Reports has been one of the most prolific sources of vehicle reliability data around. The organization tests a number of vehicles each year and surveys its members on various automotive topics, including reliability. The results of its 2022 annual auto survey are in, and the list of most reliable vehicles has been revealed. Unsurprisingly, Toyota and Lexus dominated the list of most reliable vehicles, but BMW and Mini snuck into the top 10 as well. The list includes: Toyota Corolla Hybrid: 93 Lexus GX: 91 Mini Cooper: 89 Toyota Prius: 89 Mazda MX-5 Miata: 85 Lincoln Corsair: 82 Toyota Corolla: 81 Subaru Crosstrek: 80 BMW 3 Series: 80 Toyota Prius Prime: 77 In terms of the most reliable vehicle type, Consumer Reports says that sedans remain the best choice. Their average score is 58, which is notably better than SUVs’ average score of 51. Minivans and pickup trucks are lower, at 44 and 39, respectively. As Consumer Reports notes, many sedans are older models that have allowed their manufacturers to iron out the wrinkles, making them more reliable. Domestic automakers' SUVs and trucks performed better in the survey than their imported counterparts, with scores of 45 and 41, respectively. The study also showed that hybrids and plug-in hybrids are becoming more reliable, and have climbed the score ladder to the tops of their segments in many cases.  Consumer Reports says its study includes 17 trouble areas, including small stuff like creaks and rattles and much larger problems like drivetrain failures. The organization states that it weights each issue based on its severity to create its predicted reliability scores, with 100 being the best. A car must be in production for at least two model years to be considered for the list.

2014 BMW 4 Series Coupe images leak out

Fri, 14 Jun 2013

Because embargoes were apparently made to be broken, images of the 2014 BMW 4 Series coupe have leaked onto the Internet ahead of the car's official debut thanks to Car Design News' Facebook page. As you'll recall, the 4 Series is the replacement for the outgoing 3 Series coupe, its nomenclature falling in line with the rest of BMW's lineup, where coupes and convertibles will be set apart from their sedan counterparts by one number.
As we can see in the photos, the 4 Series takes a lot of its design cues from the 3 Series on which it is based, but there's a lot more in the way of attractive body sculpting, and this production model stays true to the original 4 Series Coupe Concept that we saw at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
We don't have official details to divulge just yet, but we can discern from the photos that the range-topping coupe will be the 435i model, likely powered by BMW's turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six from the 335i. There will no doubt be a 428i model with a 2.0-liter turbo-four underhood, and we expect BMW to offer its xDrive all-wheel-drive system on both models. Much like the 3 Series, a variety of trim levels will be on offer, including a top-spec M Sport trim that you can see painted in Estoril Blue here.

MotorWeek fondly remembers the 2000 BMW M5

Fri, May 15 2015

The Retro Review series from MotorWeek tends to reminisce about vehicles at are at least 20 years old and often from even further back. However, the show's latest recollection shines the spotlight on a fondly remembered sports sedan that's also a modern classic: the 2000 BMW M5. Years before BMW committed to downsized engines with turbocharging and shortly prior to the introduction of iDrive, the E39 M5 showed the Bavarian brand's engineering talents at their very best. By modern standards, the sedan's powertrain is almost antiquated. Up front, there's a big, naturally aspirated V8 that sends power to the rear wheels, and the only choice of transmission is a six-speed manual. But as MotorWeek explains, the tuning of the whole vehicle comes out to near perfection. This is a model that's definitely worth remembering.
