1972 Bmw 2002 Texas And Socal History - Good Structure For Rebuild - Clear Title on 2040-cars
Van Alstyne, Texas, United States
Vehicle Title:Clear
Make: BMW
Drive Type: 4 Speed
Model: 2002
Mileage: 118,300
Trim: 4 Speed
This is a 1972 BMW 2002 4 speed rolling project. The car was initially going to be the subject of a 2002 Turbo Clone type build, but plans have changed as they tend to do. The car was chosen primarily because of it's structural integrity and general lack of rust in the important areas. There are areas that will need attention, and the car isn't pretty, but this may fit your 2002 intentions and may be better than the car you're about to start on.
This car was originally silver, and started life in Southern California. At some point in time it came to Texas, and was last registered here in 2005 based on the stickers on the windshield. It had AC installed as well. The car has a clear Texas Title, no issues.
In anticipation of the build, the prior owner removed the original engine (it's long gone) but the original 4 speed is still in the car. The interior was also mostly taken out and some other odds and ends were removed. I've put most of the pieces back, but that's honestly just for organization (and these pictures) - expect to rebuild everything on this car, and having another parts car isn't a bad idea either as there are items that are missing (like a drivers seat). The prior owner also collected both a left and right door shell to replace the doors on the car. They're included. There is some waviness in the left rear fender, and the rear of both front fenders have bubbling. The roof has a large (but tough to see) depression in it. The only rust on the floors is on top of the pedal box, where a small patch will be needed. I've taken as many pictures as I could in broad daylight to illustrate the condition of the body. The shock towers are as solid as the day they were made in 1972. The pictures will tell the rest of the story of the body.
The car rolls, steers, and stops (with the handbrake) and can be easily pushed around with one hand. What you see is what is being offered in this auction.
In addition to this rolling body, I also have a 1974 Tii engine and 320i 5 speed that I'll offer the winning bidder for an additional $600. The engine has been dissasembled down to the short block, but turns over by hand. The head, fuel injection, and intake are in boxes. I can't guarantee every little piece is there, but it's a great start on a good Tii engine if you need one.
Please look at the pictures, and please don't underestimate the time or money (and probably both) it will take to get this 2002 back to life - Whether you want to get it back on the road or take it weekend racing it's a full rebuild if anything - but this is a good starting point for a car that seems to increase in value every year.
I'm north of Dallas, TX. This car has a clear title.

BMW i3 will come with unusual 'OwnersChoice' non-lease option
Sun, Mar 16 2014In case you were interested in driving a BMW i3 but were afraid of getting into a traditional lease, there's some good new for you. We think. BMW recently announced that it would offer something called "OwnersChoice" and "OwnersChoice with Flex" to make the elegant city EV an easier purchase. Or temporary purchase, anyway. Something called "OwnersChoice with Flex" is not listed on the federal government's consumer information page on vehicle financing and we couldn't get a better explanation out of BMW than the official announcement, but the gist appears to be that an i3 buyer can make a gigantic balloon payment at the end of the contract term in order to pay less in monthly costs along the way. The way Automotive News describes it, the typical balloon note chains the buyer to the car in such a way that, while you can get lower monthly payments, you're still on the hook for the amount of the financing even if you return the car. With OwnersChoice, if you give the i3 back after the contract is done (usually after three years), you're in the clear. With OwnersChoice with Flex, you need to pay up no matter if you keep the car or not, but you can take the $7,500 federal tax incentive and increase your balloon payment by - let's see here, what's the amount? ah, yes - up to $7,500, which would knock $208 (7,500 divided by 36) off your payment every month. BMW Group Financial Services (GFS) came up with this new lease/payment hybrid thing, and Fred Isele, BMW GFS vp of sales and marketing, says it lets owners get, "a comfortable payment for one of the highest technological and efficient premium electric vehicles available to date." BMW GROUP FINANCIAL SERVICES OFFERS 'OWNERSCHOICE WITH FLEX' FINANCING PRODUCT WITH PURCHASE OF NEW i3 -- PROVIDES END-OF-TERM OPTIONS SIMILAR TO LEASING, YET BENEFITS OF OWNERSHIP WOODCLIFF LAKE, NJ – February 25, 2014 – With the launch of the BMW i3, the brand's first premium electric vehicle, BMW Group Financial Services becomes one of the first in the industry to create a financial solution to ownership that provides eligible customers with the options to lower their monthly payment and return the vehicle at the end of their contract term. The financing product called 'OwnersChoice with Flex,' provides eligible BMW i3 customers the option to increase their final OwnerChoice balloon payment due at the end of their contract term by up to $7,500.
2014 BMW 320i
Tue, 24 Dec 2013When BMW switched its entry level 3 Series, the 328i, from a naturally aspirated, 3.0-liter six-cylinder to a turbocharged, 2.0-liter four-cylinder, we weren't entirely sure what to think. Sure, from a pure numbers perspective, the new 2.0-liter cooked the old 3.0's goose, delivering more torque at far more accessible engine speeds while boosting horsepower and fuel economy.
While we miss that revvy six-pot, the numbers for the 2.0 were just way too good to pass up. Then we received news of an even less-powerful 2.0-liter 3 Series - the 320i. This was interesting, as it saw BMW delving into a power level previously owned solely by the anemic Lexus IS 250 and its six-cylinder engine.
Could BMW make a sub-200-horsepower sedan that still drove the way we expected a 3 Series to drive? To find out, we borrowed the new 320i for a week of testing.
Car and Driver 10Best list cracked by Tesla Model S, BMW 3 Series left off
Fri, Nov 21 2014Car and Driver is keeping new blood pumping into its annual 10Best cars list with three new entries making it on for 2015 and a perennial favorite falling off. Among the biggest shocks this year is that the BMW 3 Series and 4 Series are no longer named, despite years of some portion of that lineup earning a mention. In another surprise, the Tesla Model S (specifically in S 60 trim to fit under the $80,000 cost cap) makes it to the 2015 roster and is the only electrically motivated member of the group. Despite the loss of the 3 Series, BMW isn't entirely shut out this year, because the M235i gets its name on the list. Car and Driver argues that the little coupe feels like a welcome throwback to the E46 chassis M3 of the early 2000s. In addition to the Model S, the final newbie to the annual group is the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. The inclusion of these new members knocks the Audi A6/A7 family and Ford Fiesta ST out from the 2014 rundown. The other seven models carry over from last year, including the Cadillac CTS, Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, Honda Accord, Mazda3, Mazda6, Porsche Boxster/Cayman and Volkswagen Golf/GTI. The 2015 10Best cars list certainly seems to have something for everyone from the hot hatch fan to the family man and even the green car driver, thanks to the addition of the Tesla. Head over to Car and Driver to read its detailed explanations for each vehicle's inclusion, but if you've got a difference of opinion or just really like the list, let us know in Comments.
