1974 BMW 2002 Rivera Blue Survivor 



An Arizona car fully updated that migrated to Dallas, TX.  Comes with extensive records from way back.   Just about everything is in great original condition or have been updated.  

Body and Appearance Upgrades

·         Period BWA or similar custom 13 inch wheels with fairly new tires

·        All trim, tail lights, etc. in excellent or like new condition. 

·         Belt trim appears to have been updated and in excellent condition.   A few dents that could likely be removed but shiny new stainless trim

·         Rubber in doors, windows, quarter windows, trunk seal, door handles all look to be in excellent condition.   Appears to have been replaced with car was redone.

  • Fog lights correctly mounted in bumper
  • Special switch with red LED indicator to turn on fan on AC condenser for extra engine cooling when needed.
  • Trunk detailed nicely with new trunk boards with OEM clips

Engine and mechanical upgrades

·      Engine runs excellent and it appears all peripherals were replaced when car was updated (alternator, voltage regulator, water pump, ignition, plug wires, 32/36 Weber carburetor etc.   All seems to function nicely

  • All electrical works, gauges, lights, turn signals... new turn signal switch etc.
  • High performance nice sounding exhaust...sounds great mild raspy tone
  • Shocks and struts in excellent shape.  Assume were replaced when car was redone but need to check
  • Brakes work as new

Interior upgrades

·        Wood and stainless steering wheel new.   Horn button does not appear to work but we can probably get working for small labor charge for new buyer

·       Interior all in place no obvious rips or tears

·        New 13 piece black carpet set

·         Custom cup holder to be included with car… installed in preference of new owner 

·        Dash in excellent nice shape has been reconditioned and textured with epoxy or similar… just a good look but not perfect

·        Previous owner has installed new white headliner.   Done nicely but not exactly stock as has an interior light installed in middle of headliner.    

Other Mechanical and Special Features

·       AC all complete and  works but likely could use additional Freon.  We will add freon for  new owner

·        Clutch and transmission seems to work excellent. 

·        Car accelerates and runs with more power then we think a stock 2002 performs but do not have any details of actual engine build

Issues with car

We really see no issues with car except for new paint.     Appears previous owner who updated car took extreme car to get rare Riviera Blue color correct and use a nice base coat / clear coat paint.   However, tops of both doors, roof and a few spots on hood are not perfectly straight.     Good news is any paint shop (or our paint shop) could sand prep and blend in and make car very close to perfect.   Costs to do this could range from a few hundred dollars to 2 or 3K depending on who does work and how.    All said though just a wonderful car with this one limitation.    Unfortunately, the paint weakness does not really show well in pics .  A new owner could enjoy car without doing anything to paint as unless car is being studied or is completely clean these deviations are not highly noticeable.

 

Vehicle is Sold AS IS, Where IS and new owner will be required to sign bill of sale stating this.    We would encourage you to inspect vehicle and / or request additional pictures or study link to additional pics / or call us and we can walk through every area of car

Check out 90 years of BMW Motorrad in 90 seconds

Tue, 12 Mar 2013

After ninety years in business and first-to-market motorcycle innovations like the one-piece 'tunnel' crankcase, hydraulically dampened front forks and full fairings, as well as that trademark boxer engine, BMW Motorrad is celebrating its nonagenarian status with a video: You can follow the ride on BMW motorcycles from 1923 to now in just 90 seconds.
Okay, so there's more than a video - some anniversary-themed bikes and a new retro boxer model celebrating the R 32 "airhead' from 1923 also commemorate the occasion. But you can start with the video, and that's below.

Recharge Wrap-up: BMW i3 Super Bowl ad, Tesla updates backup camera

Sat, Jan 17 2015

For the fourth year in a row, fuel economy is the biggest factor in buying a new vehicle. A new report from JD Power and Associates found that, despite cheaper gas, customers still sought out fuel-sipping cars. 14 percent of survey responders cited mileage as the biggest concern when shopping for a new car, and the second most important reason to reject a vehicle. The biggest deal-breaker, though, when it comes to buying a new car is much more superficial: 30 percent of shoppers cite appearance as the main reason to avoid buying a particular vehicle. Read more at Automotive News, or in the press release below. Tesla's 6.1 Firmware update for the Model S makes maneuvering the car in reverse a bit easier. The update includes reverse guiding lines for the rear-view camera when backing up. Combined with the parking sensors, the new lines in the display make it easier to place the car into parking spots by showing where the car will be positioned based on the angle of the steering wheel. Two white lines curve with the steering to show where the car is going. Check it out in the video below or read more at Teslarati. BMW will air a new ad for the i3 during Super Bowl XLIX. The 60-second commercial will play during the first quarter of the game on Sunday, February 1. BMW didn't give the whole idea behind the TV spot away, but did hint at the concept behind the ad. "Big ideas like the BMW i3 take a little getting used to, and the creative idea surrounding our spot will play on this analogy," says BMW's Trudy Hardy. Despite Cheap Gas, Fuel Efficiency Still a Primary Concern Exterior Look/Design Top Reason Buyers Don't Even Consider a Vehicle WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif.: 14 January 2015 - Despite gas prices falling to their lowest levels since 2010, fuel economy-for a fourth consecutive year-remains the most influential factor among the majority of new-vehicle buyers in determining which vehicle they select, according to the J.D. Power 2015 U.S. Avoider StudySM released today. The study, now in its 12th year, examines the reasons consumers purchase, reject or do not consider-or avoid-particular models when shopping for a new vehicle. According to the study, 14 percent of new-vehicle owners cite gas mileage as the most influential reason for selecting the vehicle they ultimately purchased. At the segment level, gas mileage is the primary purchase reason among buyers of compact, small and midsize cars and compact MPVs.

Police arrest 'Fastest Lap Around Manhattan' driver [w/video]

Fri, 06 Sep 2013

Don't speed. Don't drive recklessly. Don't try to break the unofficial record for a lap of Manhattan. And if you go against this reasonable advice, do not, under any circumstances, record it and post the video on YouTube. If you do, you'll end up like Christopher Adam Tang - under arrest and facing a bevy of charges relating to the video.
Tang posted the video, which showed him lapping Manhattan in 24 minutes last Wednesday, and it quickly went viral. Now Tang, who went by the online moniker AfroDuck, is in cuffs. According to a local CBS affiliate, he was picked up at his home on Wednesday evening by police, who also seized the car used in the video, a 2006 BMW Z4.
What isn't clear is how Tang was caught. His video seems carefully done in that there are no outwardly visible signs that point to him, while the video itself is clearly sped up. While the NYPD hasn't come out and said that Tang was caught due to its extensive surveillance systems around the city, police commissioner Ray Kelly did point out that the new systems "will assist in this type of investigation." Let that serve as a warning to anyone that tries to break the 24-minute barrier. Scroll down to watch the full video.
