Selling my 1973 BMW 2002, 2.0 litre base model, Malaga/Black with black interior and factory sunroof. This has been a project over the last year or so, but some issues remain. I've lost interest in the car and trying to fix them: the car would suit someone who is looking for a 2002 "roundie" and is prepared to address a) a smokey exhaust, b) a rough idle, c) scruffy paint. The car is drivable - it shifts into all gears, the brakes work. I know very little history about the car. I bought it about two years ago. According to the previous owner it had been in Southern California for at least 10 years before then, and prior to that must have been in Colorado, judging by a faded sticker in the rear window from a seminary in Denver. The BMW archives told me that the car was manufactured on February 7th, 1973 and delivered on February 9th, 1973 to the BMW importer Hoffman Motors Corp. in New York City. The original color was Malaga, paint code 021. Here's some more details: 1) Title is clear and in my name. VIN 2588395. 2) Factory sunroof 2) Matching numbers (original engine) 3) Center console with additional VDO gauges: Vacuum, Volts, Oil Pressure (with sender) 4) Working electrics (gauges, lights, washer pump etc.) 5) Weber 32/36 DGAV dual carb with water choke 6) Pertronix ignition 7) Mileage: true value unknown 8) Silver dollar gauges Rust: the previous owner told me he fixed rust on the strut towers in the trunk - see the trunk photos. There was some rust at the top of the front left wing behind the fender (a common rust spot on these cars) which I repaired with fiberglass - the repair is not visible - the area is not structural. There is some bubbling under the paint at the same position on the other side. There is some evidence of rust on the passenger side rocker, just behind the front wheel well. The spare tire well shows evidence of repair in the past, but not by me: I just applied POR-15 to the inside. There was some rust through at the base of the front valance, which was repaired. The floor pans look good, both from inside the car and underneath. Again, please see photos. Here's a list of what's new, replaced or notable: 1) New windscreen, new windscreen seal and lockstrip 2) Two new front tires (Falken 175/70-R13) 3) New rear window seal and lockstrip 4) New oil filter (Framm) and oil change (Castrol 20W50) 5) New BP6ES plugs 6) New ignition wires 7) New distributor cap and rotor 8) Replaced distributor 9) New in-line fuel filter 10) New fuel hose 11) Rebuilt Weber carb 12) New Weber water choke assembly 13) New VDO oil pressure sender and right angle adapter 14) New exhaust manifold studs, nuts and gasket 15) New exhaust down pipe clamp and donut seal 16) New valve cover gasket (valves gapped to 0.006) 17) New battery 18) Replacement steering wheel 19) New washer pump 20) New gas tank 21) New front bucket seats 22) Carpet replaced with good used 23) Recovered rear bench seat and back 24) Refinished interior trim (door panels, rear seat panels) 25) New sunroof seals 26) New wiper blades 27) New dashboard cover 28) New trunk and hood badges 29) Replacement speedo, shows 10k - not original mileage (which is unknown) Here's a list of what goes with the car: 1) Owner's manual (good readable condition) and some other brochures (poor condition) etc. in blue BMW pouch 2) Original front seats, and all attachment hardware 3) Original spare tire and jack Here's a list of "issues": 1) Engine idles roughly, exhaust smokes after engine warms up. May be running rich (carb issue), or may be worn valve stem seals: I don't know. Manifold vacuum is good (around 20mmHg at idle), oil pressure around 30psi warm engine. Engine revs freely. Timing set correctly. 2) Headliner tatty and stained 3) The front struts are bouncy and probably need replacing 4) Blower fan works but is squeaky 5) The paint looks fine from 20ft, iffy from 10ft, and downright poor close-up. 6) Radio/cassette works, but is not hooked up. There are no speakers. Since I haven't driven the 2002 more than once or twice around the block, I cannot estimate whether it would make it on a cross country journey or even across town. You are welcome (and encouraged) to inspect the 2002 before the auction ends. If you need any more information, or photos (I have many), don't hesitate to ask, and I will do my best to answer. This auction may end early as the car is also for sale locally. A deposit of $500 is payable via PayPal within 24 hours if you win the auction, and the balance should be paid within 7 days, EITHER cash in person when the car is picked up, OR via wire to my bank account (I will give you details) before the car is released. NO OTHER METHODS OF PAYMENT ARE ACCEPTABLE. The auction winner is entirely responsible for pickup/shipping/transport of the car, although I am of course happy to help with the logistics. |

At meeting with automakers, Trump launches new attack on NAFTA
Fri, May 11 2018WASHINGTON — Ten American and foreign automakers went to the White House on Friday to push for a weakening of U.S. fuel efficiency standards through 2025, while President Donald Trump used the occasion to launch a fresh attack on the North American Free Trade Agreement that has benefited the companies. A draft proposal circulated by the U.S. Transportation Department would freeze fuel efficiency requirements at 2020 levels through 2026, rather than allowing them to increase as previously planned. Trump's administration is expected to formally unveil the proposal later this month or in June. "We're working on CAFE standards, environmental controls," Trump told reporters at the top of the meeting, referring to the Corporate Average Fuel Economy standards for cars and light trucks in the United States. Trump said he wants automakers to build more vehicles in the United States and export more vehicles. But much of the hour-long meeting focused on NAFTA. Trump blasted the pact involving the United States, Canada and Mexico as "terrible" and noted that negotiations to make changes sought by his administration were ongoing. "NAFTA has been a horrible, horrible disaster for this country and we'll see if we can make it reasonable," Trump said. Automakers have called NAFTA a success, allowing them to integrate production throughout North America and make production competitive with Asia and Europe, and have noted the increase in auto production over the past two decades with the deal in place. They have warned that changing NAFTA too much could prompt some companies to move production out of the United States. The chief executives of General Motors Co, Ford Motor Co, Fiat Chrysler, along with senior U.S. executives from Toyota Motor Corp, Volkswagen AG, Hyundai Motor Co, Nissan Motor Co, Honda Motor Co , BMW AG and Daimler AG met with Trump, as did the chief executives of two auto trade groups. Major automakers reiterated this week they do not support freezing fuel efficiency requirements but said they want new flexibility and rule changes to address lower gasoline prices and the shift in U.S. consumer preferences to bigger, less fuel-efficient vehicles.
BMW 2 Series Coupe priced from $33,025* ahead of Detroit debut
Fri, 13 Dec 2013BMW is definitely going to have its hands full at next month's Detroit Auto Show. The big news might be the debut of the M3 and M4, which were previewed in our Deep Dive, but joining those performance cars under the bright lights will be the all-new 2015 BMW 2 Series Coupe.
While we already know most of the details about the 2 Series and its available M Performance parts, BMW has now announced that the Coupe will go on sale in the first quarter of next year with a starting price of $33,025 (*plus $925 for destination) for the base 228i. This price is about $1,500 more than the current 1 Series Coupe, which starts at $31,500, while the M235i's starting price of $44,025 is almost $500 more than the existing 135is Coupe. There is still no indication as to when we'll see 2 Series Convertible unveiled.
In addition to new M cars and the 2 Series, BMW's display will also reveal another new color-theme package for the Z4. Last year we saw the Hyper Orange package, and this year will give us the Ivory White Burnt Sienna Z4 available in an exclusive Sparkling Brown Metallic exterior paint color. Scroll down for the full press release of production vehicles BMW has planned to showcase at Detroit's Cobo Hall next month.
Autoblog Minute: UAW and FCA avoid strike, Clarkson teases new show
Fri, Oct 9 2015FCA avoids a worker strike, a former Top Gear host teases us with a picture from Amazon's new car show, and Toyota predicts autonomous cars by 2020. Autoblog senior editor Greg Migliore reports on this edition of Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] FCA avoids a worker strike, a former Top Gear host teases us with a picture from Amazon's new car show, and Toyota predicts autonomous cars by 2020. I'm senior editor Greg Migliore and this is your Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. A UAW strike of FCA was avoided thanks to a zero-hour tentative agreement reached this week. Worker concerns that were renegotiated in the new [00:00:30] deal include adjustments to the two-tier wage scale, health care costs, and production outsourcing. Now check-in with Autoblog as we update our reports on this evolving story. Shooting began on Amazon Prime's new automotive show starring the former Top Gear crew. That's Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May. Now Clarkson threw out a tweet from day one of filming on location at Algarve Motor Park in Portugal. The picture features the show's [00:01:00] three stars and crew posing with the holy trinity of hyper cars. That's a McLaren P1, a Ferrari LaFerrari, and a Porsche 918 Spyder. This Prime show is being called Gear Knobs though the name is unofficial. Now if a tweet is any indication of what we can expect, who cares what it's called this is gonna be awesome. (Eds Note: Clarkson tweeted Friday that the show will not be called Gear Knobs.) Toyota predicts drivers could be obsolete on highways as early as 2020, with technology dubbed the Toyota Highway Teammate or THT. Toyota is using a modified [00:01:30] Lexus GS to show what this is capable of. THT is already able to create a driverless freeway car that's capable of changing lanes, making passes and taking curves. Plus, it can keep safe distances from other vehicles. Toyota is currently testing this on Tokyo's Shuto Expressway. Those are the highlights from the week that was. Be sure to check out my full recap this Saturday. And I'll have some added insight on the BMW M4 GTS. For Autoblog, I'm Greg Migliore. [00:02:00] Show Logo Autoblog Minute is a short-form video news series reporting on all things automotive. Each segment offers a quick and clear picture of what's happening in the automotive industry from the perspective of Autoblog's expert editorial staff, auto executives, and industry professionals.
