Clean 1973 Bmw 2002 Roundie !!! on 2040-cars
Bridgeport, Connecticut, United States
You are bidding on a 1973 BMW 2002 (Non Tii) 4 speed sunroof car. I am the third owner of the car, which was purchased from Arizona. The car began its life in California before Arizona, so this car has lived less than two years of its 40+ year life in CT. This is a very reliable, well serviced, well cared for 2002. Its an older restoration that has held up well and served me as a daily driver to and from work (30 miles) for the past two years. The motor is strong with no smoke. The trans and all running gear is strong and healthy. seats are good, seat belts works, windows roll up and down well, lights & blinkers are good....Everything works as it should on this 2002. The car is wired to have a radio. I removed the shotty 80's radio & center console and replaced it with a clean radio-free center console. I left all the wires in case the next owner wanted to install his or her own radio again. Rust, work & parts needed, and other items: I would call the car rust free, however, there are two or three very small bubbles in the paint near the windshield pilar. The dash is great with no tears. The door lock on the driver's side door has no key entry. The button and locking mechanism work great...just need to buy the part and install it. Not a big deal....an evening in the garage with a beer and the right parts will do the trick. The headliner is in "okay" condition. Its just a little old an worn with some discoloration...not bad....had to mention it though. The ingition key entry is...."tempormental". Ever now and then, once every 10-15 starts, the ignition will lock up and prevent the key from turning / starting the car. After about 30-40 seconds of wiggling, it turns and the car starts right up. Its an odd problem that never was worth any further investigation on my side. Good news for perspective buyers is that this car was serviced by the guys at Sports Car Restoration (www.sports-car-restoration.com), who specilize in BMW restoration, maintenance, and race prep. Matt & Nate know the car well and can speak on its condition. I love this car very much and hate to sell it. Priorities have changed and it needs to go.....aka.....baby and family come first, so my little red verona must go. The reserve is set for what I paid for it two years ago. The buy it now is just below what I have it listed locally for, so it goes without saying that I have the right to end this auction early if it sells locally prior to the end of this auction. Title: Car has a clean title, but...of course, I can not find the actual paper. I just sent the paperwork to DMV for a replacement / duplicate title so that is in progress....shouldn't be a problem, but wont be here for another 2-3 weeks. Someone is going to get a great little roundie!!! |

It's a good time to get a great deal on a new sports car
Wed, Apr 21 2021Anyone who regularly follows our reporting on the biggest discounts on new cars already knows that the largest sums of money are generally lopped off the sticker prices of the priciest vehicles. It just makes sense. The formula holds true in April, with the 2020 Audi R8 leading the way. It's important to note that the Audi R8 comes in both coupe and convertible flavors and, despite coming standard with a V10 engine, multiple power levels. On average, customers are paying $18,551 less than the R8's $191,136 sticker price. That's nearly 10% off, with the average out-the-door price hovering at $172,585. Up next is the 2020 BMW M8, a vehicle we've grown used to seeing on this list. It's sold in hardtop, convertible and four-door Gran Coupe body styles, and when you average out all of its transactions, buyers are scoring discounts of $16,930 with an average transaction price of $139,891. That's 10.8% off the German car's sticker price. Another familiar face is in third place this month. The 2020 Acura NSX often leads the biggest-discounts list, and even though it's fallen a bit behind in the savings race, we doubt buyers who see $16,675 cut off the sticker are complaining. With an average transaction price of $143,013, that discount equals a savings of 10.4%. For a look at the best new car deals in America based on the percentage discount off their suggested asking prices, check out our monthly recap here.

BMW and Samsung team up with Galaxy Gear smartwatch that talks to your i3
Sun, 12 Jan 2014Without a doubt, the most impressive thing that BMW showed at CES this year was a driverless M235i drifting flawlessly around a wet track at Las Vegas Speedway. However, that bit of robotic helmsmanship wasn't the only trick the German company had up its sleeve. Or, more to the point, on its wrist.
Taking a page from rival Mercedes-Benz, BMW demonstrated how a "smartwatch," in this case the Samsung Galaxy Gear, could be made to function usefully with a vehicle, in this case the BMW i3. Calling it a "research application," BMW showed off its BMW i Remote App on the Galaxy Gear; the app gives information about state of battery charge, available range and whether or not all the doors and windows are closed or open. Perhaps more useful still, the watch can be used to send a destination to the i3's navigation unit, adjust the climate control in preparation for a trip and can recognize voice commands. Nifty stuff, if not world-shaking, that could help tech-obsessed luxury buyers take a second look at the upcoming BMW EV.
Take a closer look at the watch in action below, or read thru the BMW press release.
Mini JCW Paceman vs. BMW M135i in family faceoff
Mon, 15 Apr 2013Over the last year, we've had the chance to drive two of the most exciting hatchbacks in the BMW family - the BMW M135i and the Mini Paceman John Cooper Works - but Autocar has managed to get the two corporate cousins together for a head-to-head comparison. Just like our initial impressions of the Paceman JCW, Autocar has little to complain about this new 215-horsepower hatchback... until it begins to factor in the faster, better-mannered and similarly priced M135i.
Despite laying down an extra 100 hp and delivering a 0-60 time that is almost two seconds quicker, the M135i carries the same price tag of 29,535 pounds in the UK; US pricing for the Paceman starts at $36,200, while it still isn't even clear if the US will be getting the M135i. Even more surprising is the fact that the Paceman falls short of the M135i in regards to rear seat and cargo volume, and just barely squeaks out a win in the fuel economy department. Scroll down to watch the BMW versus Mini hot hatch battle.
