Miami, Florida, United States

I bought this car recently (about 8 months ago) with the full intention of keeping it for at least a few years. Didn't think I was not going to be able to spend enough time on the car (I have 7 mo old baby keeping me busy!). I've tackled a few small projects, which I will detail.

OK, this is a 1976 BMW 2002 auto. Last year of production for this classic.

Pretty much stock as far as I can tell, other than small modifications like Weber 32/36 double barrel carb and most of the SMOG equipment removed.

Engine runs strong, does not overheat, even in 95 degree Miami weather and stop and go traffic on I-95! Does not smoke or burn oil. A few tiny drops of oil here and there.

Transmission shifts perfect. Will kick a little bit when R is engaged. I'm quite certain a new tranny mount will take care of this.

Suspension is good. Needs new tie rods and possibly some bushings also.

Brakes are fine. Matching Michelin tires with 75-80% life left.

Interior is decent. Passenger side bottom has a rip. Drivers back a couple small holes. Rear seats are ok other than a repair done on the upper RH corner of the back. Door cards and rear panels are fine. New seat hinge covers. Both doors open and close perfectly fine. So do the windows and vents. Carpet is OK. Coco mats for the front only in great shape. Dash has a few cracks, but it's still very solid. Instrument cluster is working fine other than clock, wich is not. I have a spare cluster with a tach that I intended to replace but never got to it. This will go with the car together with a list of new and used spares which I list at the end.

Glovebox is in good shape and closes good.

Headliner has two rips. Otherwise clean and tight. I have an OEM headliner, pre-sewn. This will go with the car also.

Both sunvisors are in perfect condition.

The car is equipped with A/C. All the components are there but it does not blow cold. Compressor clutch does not engage. I did not spend any time figuring out what could be wrong. It may be as simple as a fuse, freon charge or a complete rebuild. Who knows. Blower works in all speeds.

Radio is there but is not connected.

Dome light works. all backlighting works good, inlcuding the dimmer and shifter light. All controls work fine.

The body of the car is in very good condition. There is no rust other than some surface pitting in the paint, mostly on the roof. Shock towers are impeccable. Rockers are also perfect. With minimal preparation and nice paint job this car will look like a million bucks! Body is very staight!

Trunk is very clean and there is no rust at all. OEM jack and tools are present. A brand new tool roll is inlcuded.

Engine bay is clean. Picture does not show the windshield wiper fluid tank, but I have a used one with no leaks and new cap. Just never installed it back.

As mentioned most of the SMOG equipment has been removed or disabled by previous owner. I removed all the unnecessary wiring related, which was left behind disconnected.

New Optima battery 30 days ago. I cleaned, primed and repainted the batter bracket. New hold down rod. New grounding strap and positive cable (OEM). New headlights (Sealed beams) replaced 30 days ago.

Parts offered with the car:

Used set of door cards and one rear panel.

Used instrument cluster with tach.

Used but great condition OEM rims with hub caps.

New OEM front licence plate bracket.

New OEM headliner.

New and used assortment of body clips/retainers.

New thermostat.

New fuse kit.

Used sealed beam.

New OEM LH rear light gasket.

So, this is a very solid car. Fantastic candidate for a quick restoration project (paint, upholstery and other small things here and there). Don't expect a showroom car. This one is not! I have been driving this car 4-5 times a week for the past several months without a single incident. It's a daily driver as-is.

This 2002's are going up in price weekly, so there is no loosing in buying a good solid one like this.

Inspections and test drives are welcome and encouraged. Bring your friend, mechanic, father in law, etc. All this BEFORE you commit to buy the car. Ebay is not a game. Posting this costs real money, so don't play with me! Bidders with less than 2 positive feedback please contact me before bidding. Otherwise bids will be cancelled by me.

Payment is as follows: immediate deposit of $500 by paypal. Balance no later than 5 days after auction by cashiers check of any bank with a branch in Miami, FL, or cash. I could accept Paypal or c/c, but check with me before considering this.

Car is located in Miami, FL 33133. Driven almost daily to Key Biscayne, FL 33149. Will assist buyer with shipping. But all arrangements of transport will be made by buyer. All costs related to be paid by buyer.

As you can expect this car is offered AS-IS, no warranties implied or expressed.

FL clear title in hand to my name.

To arrange for a viewing or test drive contact me at 786-999-4811 or e-mail me.

BMW 1 Series getting a small nose job

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

As BMW prepares to launch its new 2 Series lineup, it appears that the current 1 Series is going to get a little attention for itself. Based on these spy photos, the 1 Series hatchback (F20/F21), which is not offered in the US, will be getting a minor facelift in the near future.
From what we can see in these images, the updated 1 Series will definitely be getting a tweaked front end, with most of the attention focusing on the air intakes and grille. Our shooter tells us that it is possible that the headlights may yet be reworked in some way by the time we see this car in production form. It still isn't clear if we'll ever see this bodystyle or the next-gen 1 Series in the US, but our most recent report seems to indicate that the car's fortunes will depend somewhat on how well the Mercedes CLA-Class and Audi A3 sell.

2014 BMW 4 Series Convertible [w/video]

Thu, 20 Feb 2014

Here it is, the fifth generation of BMW's 3 Series Convertible - only this one begins with a "4," having been rechristened as a droptop version of the new 4 Series Coupe. With thirty years of work on this same recipe and having gotten it so right for much of that time, the Munich compact premium convertible has been a WYSIWYG affair for decades: once you saw its sedan paradigm, you knew what it was going to look like in roofless two-door form, and what you saw is exactly what you got.
It is ridiculous to think that BMW would choose this new model and its new nomenclature to muck things up. The new car has, though, gotten larger and roomier, and even though it's now part of the racier coupe division within the company's compact line, it has gotten more, shall we say, mature. Driving even further away from the days when handsomely tipped bartenders could work their way into one, The Ultimate Tanning Machine had shed even more elan, going instead for elegance and an attitude befitting its $49,675 starting price (including $925 for destination).
It strikes a few odd notes, but what it does best, it still does better than anything else out there in its price range.

BMW brings burlesque, Warhol, M1 and 6 Series Grand Coupe to Paris Photo LA

Mon, 22 Apr 2013

BMW has worked with Paris Photo for ten years. This year, the photography exposition lands in Paramount Studios in Los Angeles for the first time, and BMW is not only coming with it, the Bavarians are bringing the Art Car that started it all: the 1979 M1 painted by Andy Warhol. For those attending the show, there will also be making-of video of Warhol working on the car - but if you remember the mini lecture that EVO magazine's Henry Catchpole gave on the Art Cars, you'll remember that Warhol finished the car so quickly that the cameraman barely had time to get the film rolling.
With that will also be a series of photos of the BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe dropped into noir scenes accompanied by burlesque models, all taken by photographer Uwe Düttmann. It's the first time they'll be exhibited at Paris Photo. You can check out a few of them in the high-res gallery above, and there's a press release below with more info.
