1974 Bmw 2002 Tii - Very Clean - Survivor - All Original - Matching Numbers on 2040-cars
Fort Worth, Texas, United States
You are contemplating the purchase of one of the most iconic vehicles ever to roam the face of this earth.
Yes, you are looking at the legendary BMW 2002 tii, the car that saved BMW and set the standard for small performance sedans. Find any legitimate automobile-related "best of..." or "greatest ever..." list and it will likely contain the BMW 2002tii. It is just that significant of a car. About this particular example: It is an original, matching numbers tii. Prior to my purchasing the car, it was solely owned by an active duty officer in the U.S. Air Force (YES, it was a one-owner car!!!) With it's owner being in the Air Force, the car traveled around quite a bit. Purchased in Fort Worth, Texas, the car has service records from Georgia, Florida, California, and Hawaii. Previous owner took VERY GOOD care of this car. Did have top-end work and the engine honed and re-ringed at about 60,000. Receipts show lots of newer parts (radiator, drive shaft, fuel pump) and continuous maintenance. When I purchased the car, it had just been brought out of a 9 year hibernation. It ran but the tires were crap and one of the brake calipers was frozen. I bought the car because there is VERY LITTLE RUST on this car. There is some on drivers side (jack fixture) and around the rear window but compared to what other cars deal with, this is insignificant. The frame rails and rockers are SOLID. The shock towers in the rear are SOLID. Interior is in outstanding condition. One SMALL tear in the headliner. NO TEARS in the seats. Carpet is not torn but is faded. Dash is in outstanding condition. A couple very small cracks where the gauge surround levels out but no other cracks. Paint is in very good condition. Car is currently missing belt trim on driver's front fender and I removed the lower rocker molding to get pics. Both are included with car. Since owning the car, I have completed the following work: 1. New Tires (Kuhmo Solus) 2. Rebuilt the entire brake system. This was not just a brake job - I refurbished or replaced almost every part of the system. Work included: a. new BMW rotors3. Inspected / Refurbished fuel delivery system - Here, I inspected gas tank, cleaning pick-up screen, replaced all rubber fuel lines (mostly with BMW parts), replaced the main fuel filter in the engine bay, inspected screen in fuel pump (not there), replaced all three rubber isolators for fuel pump assembly, placed another fuel filer between tank and pump. Tank was immaculate. 4. Rebuilt the front end of the car - this included new tie rods, new center link, new idler bushings (blue BMW), new subframe bushings for connecting link, new sway bar bushings, new Boge strut inserts, new BMW foam bumpers, all hardware yellow cad plated. 5. Replaced lots of miscellanous stuff - rubber bellow from air filter to throttle body, new rubber washers for air cleaner assembly, new air filters, new battery, recent oil change with Brad Penn Green Oil, BMW oil filter, new shifter knob, and probably some things I cannot think of. 6. New plugs, rotor, distributor cap, plug wires 7. Flushed cooling system, replacing coolant with BMW smurf juice. Bottom line, this car is a driver. It stops VERY well, shifts great, and runs quite well for not having had a proper tune up. Lots of pictures so you can get a sense of how solid this car is. If you have any question, let me know and I will be happy to get back with you. Included with car: 1. New cooling and heater hoses and thermostat 2. Ireland Engineering Pedal Rebuild kit 3. BMW foam cover for pedal box (under car) and rubber isolating pad (inside of car) 4. Blunttech heater valve rebuild kit 5. Oil filters 6. Factory Service Manual (2 volume set) |

BMW profit of $2.7B is down as automaker invests to keep luxury lead
Fri, 02 Aug 2013
Despite selling 6.6-percent more vehicles - a record by volume - and posting higher revenues in the second quarter of 2013, BMW Group's profit of 2.07 million euros ($2.75 billion) is down 8.8 percent from last year. Investments in new technology (e.g. the new i3) and personnel, in addition to a competitive market, are to blame, BMW states. But the automaker remains committed to its fiscal targets for 2013, which, Chairman of the Board of Management of BMW AG, Norbert Reithofer, says will be "on a similar scale to 2012."
The BMW brand's sales performance in the first half of the year, which increased by 7.7 percent to 804,258 vehicles delivered, was good enough for it to maintain its lead in the luxury market, narrowly beating Audi, which delivered 780,510 vehicles, Automotive News reports. Mercedes-Benz delivered 694,433 vehicles to cement third place.
2015 BMW M4 Coupe
Mon, 12 May 2014Launched out of the seat by a huge, unexpected dip in the road, yet still held largely in place by the smooth webbing of my safety belt, I clench my teeth waiting to come back to earth. A tenth of a second later, the M4 Coupe touches down and my body is slammed into the leather seat cushion. All of the air is forced out of my lungs upon landing, but the BMW's chassis, suspension and steering appear unfazed. Pleasantly surprised, I mash the accelerator to the floor in giddy pursuit of the car in front of me - an absolutely identical 2015 BMW M4 coupe.
A cavorting game of cat-and-mouse on a desolate twisty canyon in southern Portugal is an excellent way to explore the real-world driving dynamics and performance of BMW's all-new M4 Coupe. But to truly push it to the limit - without having to worry about oversize depressions in the asphalt - requires a dedicated racetrack. Graciously, my hosts have rented the famed Autódromo Internacional do Algarve racetrack, or Portimão circuit, for an afternoon of automotive debauchery.
It's hard to believe this passes for work.
2015 BMW 2 Series Cabriolet flips its lid [w/video]
Thu, 02 Oct 2014Early next year, BMW will offer droptop versions of its entry-level 2 Series. Available in both 228i and M235i guise, the 2 Series Cabriolet will no doubt take everything we already like (and don't like) about the Twoer and add that wind-in-your-hair experience. Of course, taking in all the extra sun comes at a price - $37,900 for the 228i and $47,700 for the M235i, not including $950 for destination. Those prices represent increases of $5,800 and $4,600, respectively.
Powertrain specs are identical to the coupes, with the 228i powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four good for 240 horsepower and 255 pound-feet of torque. The more potent M235i gets BMW's turbocharged, 3.0-liter inline-six, with 320 hp and 330 lb-ft of push, and can hit 60 miles per hour in 4.8 seconds. That's with the eight-speed automatic transmission, which is available with either engine. And for those who prefer to row their own, BMW will thankfully offer a six-speed manual gearbox with both powerplants, as well.
Following the Paris Motor Show unveiling, the pair will be shown in the US at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November before hitting dealers a few months later. Have a look at the new droptop in our fresh batch of images live from the Porte de Versailles exhibition center, and read BMW's lengthy press blast, below, for all of the official information.
