1971 BMW 2002 with M20 6 cylinder engine and Getrag 260 5-speed transmission & ecu.  The motor had a little over 100,000 miles at the time of the swap with 3,306.6 miles driven since the build.   All driveline, suspension, brakes, etc were either replaced or upgraded.   Specifics include:

1.  Fresh head and timing belt.

2.  New IE clutch kit and Ireland Engineering (IR) E30 short shift kit and IE windage tray.

3.  Guibo and custom driveshaft.

4.  Front and Rear Main seals.

5.  E28 Engine Mount and custom transmission mount.

6.  All gaskets and typical comprehensive tune-up items.

7.  Stitch welded engine bay and added body to frame reinforcement to compensate for the increased torque.  

8.  3.91 LSD rear differential from a 320 mated to all new CV joints and half-shafts using IE’s adaptor kit.  

9.  Custom fabricated new front and rear strut bars (the rear with a battery tray)

10. Custom headers leading into a complete custom 2.5” stainless steel exhaust.

11. H&R springs.

12. 15”x6” Panasport Minilites.

13. Bilstein sport shocks.

14.  Hankook tires.

15. Euro flush turn signals.

16. New strut top bearings and IE Negative Camber Plates.  

17. IE front vented big brake kit with Volvo calipers, tii master cylinder and rear drum cylinders and stainless steel lines.  

18. All bushings to polyurethane from IE

19. IE front and rear sway bars.

20. All new steering arms and bushings.

21. Since the Getrag 260 doesn’t have a mechanical speedo output,  a set of Haneline hot rod gauges are used getting RPM information from the ecu and

      speed/Odo information via GPS.   The gauges include fuel, water temp, oil pressure, and amp gauges that fit the look of the car well.

22. An IE fiberglass replica using hood pins for attachment replaces the stock hood.

23.  All of the door and side window gaskets have been replaced with new OEM gaskets that fit and perform well.  

24.  The chrome trim and window squeegees on both the inside and outside of both doors have been replaced.

25. New black carpet kit from Only02 along with a black stock rear bench seat.

26. New vintage Recaro recliners with Schroth 4-point harnesses.

27. New door cards are from Aardvarc and covered them with black material very similar to the Recaro fabric.

28. I also covered the stereo console and rear deck cover in the same fabric.  I opted to paint the roof of the car black instead of installing a new              

     headliner.

29. New Suede Sparco 350mm steering wheel.  

30. The dash was replaced with an used OEM dash with only one 1/4" crack where raised guage area drops down to passanger level.

31.  Also Included are the BMW owner’s handbook, the 2002 Workshop Manual and a Budge car cover.

Several items can either go with the car or I’ll sell separately including a new front air dam from IE, four Hankook slicks and four Fitipaldi alloy wheels. 

The exterior restoration was done by a paint and body man experienced with collector car restorations and has less than 400 miles since completion.  The car runs, sounds and looks awesome getting thumbs up every time I drive it.  It’s guaranteed to put a smile on your face.  I’ve had it stored under a car cover in an air conditioned/humidity controlled garage since I had it shipped in from California where it was built by Groma Race Fabrications.  It needs nothing mechanically and has absolutely no rust anywhere.  This is my fifth 2002 putting together all the features I’ve ever dreamed of with the first four.  I only wish I could enjoy it but health reasons necessitate the sale.

Did BMW really win the luxury car sales race?

Sun, Feb 14 2016

As anyone who follows our monthly By The Numbers series already knows, the luxury car sales race in the United States was close all of last year as BMW, Lexus and Mercedes-Benz seesawed up and down for sales supremacy. At the end of the year, it was BMW on top of the standings with 346,023 total sales. Or was it? According to data released by Polk, comparing the actual number of vehicles registered between the three top luxury players in the US paints a slightly different picture. Polk's data suggests that only 335,259 BMWs were registered in 2015, compared to 340,392 Lexus models. Why the disparity? It's all a matter of timing. Actual end consumers buy new cars, in almost all cases, from a franchised dealer. BMW delivered 346,023 vehicles in 2015, but only 335,259 of them were registered by their new owners. Presumably, those 11,000 BMWs did (or will) end up registered in the driveways of consumers, but they hadn't before January 1, 2016. Lexus General Manager Jeff Bracken wrote in an email to Automotive News, "Luxury sales leadership as measured by vehicle registrations is important to Lexus as it represents actual consumers engaging directly with our dealers." Of course, it goes without saying that we'll be paying keen attention to the 2016 luxury car sales race as it unfolds. If it's anything like it was in 2015, it'll come down to the wire, and even then may not be entirely clear.

Alpina B4 coupe will be your subtle M4

Sat, 14 Sep 2013

We're big fans of Alpina here at Autoblog - the BMW tuner has created some seriously delicious products in the past, and recently tuned the diesel-powered 3 Series wagon to create the D3 Bi-Turbo. What we like most about Alpina is how the cars only look subtly more aggressive than stock, yet they pack a real wallop under the hood.
Take this B4 Coupe, recently spotted testing at the Nürburgring. It looks pretty tame compared to the normal 435i, the only visual additions being the Alpina-standard 21-spoke wheels, modified front lip and rear wing spoiler. But under the hood, Alpina is reportedly working on a tuned, twin-turbo straight-six that produces something like 410 horsepower. That means the B4 should be good for a 0-62 time of 4.2 seconds, with a top speed around 190 mph. Rear-wheel drive will be standard, though our spies suggest that Alpina could also use all-wheel drive here in the B4.
We have no doubt that the next BMW M4 will be super hot, but for those seeking a bit more stealth and exclusivity, this Alpina B4 certainly looks the business. Check it out in our gallery above.

Final decision on Toyota/BMW sports car due by year end

Fri, Sep 18 2015

BMW and Toyota signed a memorandum of understanding to share technology and build a sports car way back in 2012, and months later, they made that partnership official. This oft-rumored model from two auto industry titans still hasn't hit the road, and the time has come to make a final decision about its future. Thankfully, the model's fate is just a few months from being known. "By the end of the year we will approve whether or not we will make it," a Toyota spokesperson said about the sports car project, according to Automotive News Europe. "The whole study before that, on what kind of platform, on what kind of architecture, that's been progressing quite well. We haven't yet decided to give the green light to the project, but it's coming up." The collaboration is supposed to result in jointly developed fuel-cell tech, composites, and research into lithium-air batteries. Little is officially known about what Toyota and BMW are planning for the sports car project, but there are plenty of rumors about what's in store. Both automakers are supposed to get their own version of the vehicle. Some reports say the Japanese model will be the revival of the Supra, and the Bimmer-badged one might end up being a replacement for the Z4. The potential powertrains have been suggested as a German-sourced, turbocharged inline six with rear-wheel drive and a super-capacitor-powered plug-in hybrid with all-wheel drive.
