1972 Bmw 2002 Base Sedan 2-door 2.0l on 2040-cars
Portland, Oregon, United States
You are bidding on a driver quality restored black on black 1972 BMW 2002. I purchased this car in May of 2012 in Hillsboro OR and have spent the last two years having it professionally restored. I am the third owner of this car. The original owner handed it down to his nephew and I purchased it from that nephew. The car had been stored in the family barn since the late 90’s before I purchased it. So I guess technically it’s a barn find. Since the car had been in storage for the past 12+ years the body was in really great shape with no rust in any of the usual 2002 problem areas, shock towers, floor pans, spare tire well, running boards etc. All are really solid. I’ve included some before and after pictures of some of the common problem areas before they were cleaned and re coated with fresh undercoating to keep them protected. The cars original color was malanga but it was repainted to (schwartz) black back sometime in the 80’s. During the 2 year restoration I had the car taken down to bare metal and re painted this same black. The interior of the car has been reupholstered in black vinyl including front/rear seats and door panels front/rear. The door panels were replaced with Aardvark racing wooden panels before they were reupholstered. As far as I can tell the carpet is original. If so it’s in incredible shape. Beyond the restoration the following upgrades have been performed: BMW OEM BBS wheels, BMW OEM Sport Recaro seats, New Weber 32/26 carburetor, flush European turn signals and Hella driving lights. Here is a high level overview of the work performed during the restoration, detailed work below. Bare metal repaint in Fall 2013 All receipts for this work will go with the car. The car runs well and the engine pulls strong. It handles well and stops just as well. After all the mechanical work I would expect nothing less. Paint is a 9/10, interior 9/10, mechanical 9/10, chrome 8/10 (some of the chrome, drip rail, window trim has a few scratches), engine bay 7/10 (mechanically sound just could use detailing). The engine has approximately 1000 miles on the rebuild. The engine rebuild included the following: New pistons While the engine was out the following was done: New transmission mounts The brakes were professionally rebuilt including: New brake hoses at all four
corners The front suspension was professionally rebuilt including: New front control arms. The previous owner had performed the following work before I purchased the car: New steering guibo The body includes the following: New Ireland Engineering front
spoiler In addition to everything listed
above the following has been replaced. Clean Title in hand. Enjoy this car as a daily driver or keep it for the weekends and car shows. Buyer to pay for shipping from Portland OR or local pickup. I do require a 500$ deposit within 72 hours of close of auction. |

BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo gets leaked well ahead of Geneva reveal
Wed, 06 Feb 2013The great power of the internet has allowed us to get an early first look at the all-new BMW 3 Series Gran Turismo, a car that is slated to be shown in full at the Geneva Motor Show next month, albeit without many details to go on right now. With pictures leaking out this early in the game, we'd expect that you won't have to wait until March to get the full lowdown, however.
Our first look at the 3er GT reveals a car that is, to our eyes, a tidier piece of design work than its 5 Series GT brother. The long-backside proportions are still a bit ungainly, at least from these images, but they're helped tremendously with the larger wheel/tire package and more aggressive fascia of the sport package.
Expect the 3 Series GT to hit the ground running, with the same turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder and 3.0-liter inline-six found in the standard 3 Series sedan. BMW's popular xDrive all-wheel-drive system is a virtual lock for the option sheet, too.
KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners
Sat, 30 Mar 2013The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.
These are the top luxury cars bought by people entering the segment for the first time
Fri, 25 Jul 2014Let's say you just got a big promotion at work or the kids are moving out of the house, and you finally have some extra money. You decide to blow it all at once and treat yourself by upgrading your ride. Naturally, you look to a luxury automaker. What do you choose?
Models like the Audi A3 and Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class may be tailor-made to introduce buyers to the premium segment, but a new study finds that they don't garner the highest rates of non-luxury customer conquests. It turns out that a Volvo leads among folks moving up to a premium brand, and it isn't even one that's made anymore, at that.
A recent study by Polk and IHS Automotive looked at what models had the highest rates of buyers upgrading from a non-luxury segment. The information comes from its new vehicle registration data through April 2014. All ten top models boasted conquest rates of over 50 percent, but the Volvo C70 led the field with 68.01 percent of its customers coming from non-premium brands.
