1972 BMW 2002 Baur Targa,-- Rare European Model. VIN# 2795512 matching/engine/ chassis . Number 512 of 1963 Baur Targa Cabriolets produced by Baur. Manufactured on June 13th 1972 and was delivered to Italy. http://classicandvintagebmw.tumblr.com/02targa (check this site for more info on Baur Targa) Car was imported into the USA in April of 2007. Mileage at the date of sale was 92,250. Prior to purchase, the engine ,suspension and brakes were rebuilt by Jaymic in England. I have many of the old receipts (new clutch, brake calipers, etc.) from Jaymic as well the original owner’s manuals, etc. These repairs were made at round the 85k mileage mark and are documented in repair log. The interior was professionally re-done and a new German square weave carpet kit was installed by the new owner in Los Gatos,CA. During the installation of the carpet , he located a 1962 Italian Lira(coin) under the old carpet kit. That helped to confirm that the car spent its early days in Italy. The coin has been drilled and is attached to the vintage BMW leather key chain along with the original keys and aftermarket gas cap key. The car was re-painted some time in England by the previous owner, the paint still looks good. Only on the hood I can see small bubble paint. The car has some small micro scratches. A new Apline CDA-9883 in-dash w/removable face CD/MP3 receiver(xm/Sirius satellite ready) with iPod connection along with Alpine under dash speakers were installed in September 2007. Door panels and rear passenger panels were not cut. Routine lube, oil & filer changes have been made every 3k miles. Weber carburetor (replaced the Solex) and Pertonix electronic ignition were installed in 08/2010 mileage 98,075. Current mileage is 99,923. Tires are 80% good. Car has a Nardi steering wheel and Cosmic wheels. Dome light too. All lights, turn signals, brake lights, fog lights and rear bumper mounted brake light work. Windshield and all windows are clean/clear and Sonneland rear window on the convertible Targa top is clean/clear as well. I also have an extra windshield that has been wrapped in bubble wrap. Most recent service by Import Doctors in Seattle- 01/2013. Lube, synthetic oil & filter, new water pump and coolant. Mileage at service-99,463. You are welcome to do pre-purchase inspection before the auction ends. I had described the car in best of my knowledge, please ask any questions. I trust this car to go cross-country but the car is sold “AS IS” without any warranty. This vehicle will only go up in value. This is the only one the I come across. |

Dealers mobilize to protect their margins from automaker subscription services
Fri, Aug 24 2018Six individual auto brands — Lincoln, Cadillac, Porsche, Mercedes, BMW and Volvo — have established or are trialing a vehicle subscription service in the U.S. Three third-party companies — Flexdrive, Clutch and Carma — run brand-agnostic subscription services. And three automakers — Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and General Motors — have also launched short-term rental services. Dealers, afraid of how these trends might affect their margins, are building political and lawmaking campaigns to protect their revenue streams. So far, three states are investigating automaker subscriptions, and Indiana has banned any such service until next year. It's certain that those three states are the first fronts in a long political and legal battle. Powerful dealer franchise laws mandate the existence of dealers and restrict how automakers are allowed to interact with customers to sell a vehicle. On top of that, Bob Reisner, CEO of Nassau Business Funding & Services, said, "Dealers and their associations are among the strongest political operators in many states. They as a group are difficult for state politicians to vote against." In California earlier this year, the state Assembly debated a bill with wide-ranging provisions to protect against what the California New Car Dealers Association called "inappropriate treatment of dealers by manufacturers." One of those provisions stipulated that subscription services need to go through dealers, but that item got stripped out when dealers and manufacturers agreed to discuss the matter further. In Indiana, Gov. Eric Holcomb signed a moratorium on all subscription programs by dealers or manufacturers until May 1, 2019, to give legislators more time to investigate. Dealers in New Jersey have taken their campaign to the state capitol, asking that the cars in subscription programs get a different classification for registration purposes. Automakers run the current subscription services and own the vehicles. Sign-ups and financial transactions happen online or through apps, leaving dealers to do little more than act as fulfillment centers to various degrees, with little legal recourse as to compensation amounts when they're called on to deliver or service a car. That's a bad base to build on for business owners who've sunk millions of dollars into their operations.
BMW, Toyota outline new tech joint venture, new sports car
Fri, 25 Jan 2013Back in June, Toyota and BMW announced a "memorandum of understanding" outlining plans for the two companies to join forces on future products and technology development. On Thursday, they signed a more formal and binding agreement that goes further into detail about the partnership, and it all sounds pretty exciting. The two announced they will work together in four main areas:
Joint development of a fuel cell system
"Set up a feasibility study to define a joint platform concept for a mid-size sports vehicle"
BMW details Concept X5 eDrive ahead of New York debut
Sun, 13 Apr 2014Already weighing more than most other types of vehicles and with the space to accommodate the extra equipment, crossovers and SUVs arguably make for one of the more ideal platforms to transform into a hybrid. And there have been a handful of them - like the Audi Q5, Infiniti QX60/Nissan Pathfinder, Porsche Cayenne/Volkswagen Touareg, Lexus RX450h/Toyota Highlander and Cadillac Escalade/Chevy Tahoe/GMC Yukon - but by and large the majority of hybrids on the market are sedans and hatchbacks. BMW, however, looks poised to join the minority with the X5.
The Bavarian automaker showcased the X5 eDrive concept at Frankfurt last year, and as promised, has now revealed the followup it will present at the New York Auto Show in just a few days. The new Concept X5 eDrive, as BMW has now revealed, pairs a 2.0-liter turbo four good for 245 horsepower to a 95-hp electric motor to deliver a combined 340 horsepower. Its lithium-ion battery can power it for up to 20 miles and at speeds up to 75 miles per hour before the gasoline engine needs to kick in. All that without sacrificing the vehicle's utility, maintaining an almost perfectly flat loading floor with 40:20:40 split-folding rear seats, and without sacrificing much on performance, either: with a 0-62 time of seven seconds flat, the X5 eDrive concept is quicker off the line than the production X5 with the 2.5-liter turbodiesel and just a tenth off of the 3.0-liter turbodiesel.
With the full technical details now released (you can delve into it all in the press release below), the only question remains when BMW will actually put the X5 eDrive into production. Given its appearance in New York, though, we gather that whenever it does reach showrooms, it'll reach American ones as well.
