A 1974 BMW 2002 series vehicle for sale! A great collector's item and a perfect project for restoration! It is a 4-speed manual transmission.

I bought this car back in 2006, in the hopes of restoring it one day, but unfortunately I've fallen on hard times, and I simply don't see myself being able to afford to do this anytime soon.

What it needs:

- Body work (obviously): It has a few knicks and dings, but it's nothing really major.  There is a dent on the passenger-side door. The driver-side mirror is cracked and needs to be replaced.  See pictures.

- A new windshield. The current one has two vertical cracks, a large one on the passenger side, and a small one on the driver side.

- New brake rotors and pads. I currently downshift and slow down, even sometimes using the emergency brake; they are barely functional and they don't stop on a dime. This is a priority and it's very important to get these replaced as soon as possible!!!

- Redo the interior of the car. This is not a priority, of course, but if you're looking to restore the car to a collector's item, you may want to do this when you get a chance.

- Replace the hazard/4-way switch. The current one is not functioning, but you can buy one of these online at Bavarian Autosport or other sites and it's around $60.

- There's no air-conditioning installed in the car. I just open the windows and sometimes the sun roof, but it's still hot as hell in Arizona!!!

- The passenger side door doesn't lock from the outside; needs to be locked from the inside.

- Starting up the car is usually not a problem; since this is a 39-year old car, and it doesn't have a choke switch, in cold weather, it usually takes a few turns before the thing starts up. In summer or hot weather, it usually starts up right away. 

- Current mileage unknown, because it only goes up to 5 digits.  No idea how many times the odometer has rolled over since 1974.

Other than that, the car itself runs just fine. I still use it to commute to and from work in North Phoenix, about 50 miles each way.

I do get a lot of compliments about the car from friends and strangers alike, that it's a classic, and it's a nice car, in spite of its age and looking rough on the outside. I love the car, but I simply just cannot afford to restore it at this time. I didn't realize until much later that this is a costly luxury.

In any case, I hope someone out there would like to take this car and turn it into something nice later on. If you happen to purchase the vehicle from me, and restore it, I ask that you please take photos and send them to me. I'm really curious how it turns out later.

Thanks for your interest and good luck!

BMW expounds on i8 design and performance in new videos

Fri, 03 Jan 2014

At this point, there isn't much we don't know about the 2015 BMW i8, so BMW is starting to focus its attention on reassuring consumers that the future of BMW won't abandon the past. In these two recently released videos, BMW answers questions prospective buyers might have about about the new model's design and performance.
In the design video, BMW explains how the i8's styling is intended to be practical, with aerodynamics and fuel efficiency in mind, yet still have a sporty and dynamic look. The performance video aims to show that the plug-in hybrid can be fuel efficient while still delivering plenty of performance, and it shows an animation about how the i8's drive systems work together. Scroll down to watch both videos on this bold green supercar.

BMW unleases new M4 as MotoGP safety car

Mon, 10 Mar 2014

BMW has some considerable racing prowess to crow about, and draws on those credentials to create models like the new M4. But it's not about to rest on the laurels it's won at the end of innumerable races past and present. Mere months after the release of its latest performance coupe, BMW has already revealed a new M4 touring car for the DTM series, and has now unveiled its new M4 safety car for the MotoGP motorcycle championship.
Revealed on the BMW M Facebook page and set to debut at the front of the grid at the season opener in Qatar a couple weeks from now, the new M4 safety car is just the latest in a long string of official vehicles it has provided to the MotoGP series. Previous examples have included everything from the 1M Coupe to the M6 and the X6 M.
Like its predecessors, the M4 safety car features emergency lighting, special equipment and of course BMW's trademark white livery with red, navy and light blue stripes that, in this arrangement, give the new Williams Martini Racing livery a run for its money. Logos promote the BMW M Performance Parts you can buy to bring your own Bimmer up to spec, which on this car isn't likely have changed much from stock.

BMW Concept 4 Series Coupe proves that 3-2=4

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

BMW may be calling this 4 Series Coupe a concept, but take a long, hard look - this will be the car that replaces the 3 Series Coupe in the automaker's lineup. Don't let that number change trip you up. This car will have all the basic elements of what makes a 3 Series coupe so popular, and while this isn't technically the production model (there are still come conceptual elements and we don't have powertrain details), it's pretty much what we can look forward to seeing out on the road very soon. And honestly, the naming strategy isn't that weird (though it's still plenty odd) - BMW will be using even numbers for all its coupes and convertibles moving forward. 1 Series, meet 2 Series. And when a 3 Series loses two doors, it becomes a 4 Series.
Dimensionally, the new 4 Series coupe is 1.7-inches wider, half an inch shorter in overall height, and rides on a 2.0-inch longer wheelbase. It's a really pretty thing, with bold, aggressive body sculpting up front, and a rear deck that's sort of like a downsized version of the larger 6 Series two-door. It's all very handsome, but we'll reserve final judgment until we see the production version with its likely smaller wheels and possibly toned-down visuals.
We don't yet have powertrain details, but we fully expect the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder and 3.0-liter turbo-six to carry over in 328i 428i and 435i guise. Though remember, other 3.0-liter models in BMW's range use 40i designation, so we could possibly be looking at a 440i Coupe, instead. We won't know until the production car officially bows later this year.
