1972 BMW 2002 Racing Dynamics

 “Roundie”  E10

If ever there was an automotive trendsetter, BMW's 2002 was it.

This is the car that literally spawned the soon-to-be-popular Sport GT category and, in the end, was one of the main reasons that the Bavarian Motor Werks became the successful car company that it is today.

 

Speed Sports is proud to offer this ultra clean example of  a “Roundie” BMW 2002. This car with its extremely well documented history and great performance upgrades, I am sure will be very desirable and sought after.  It is rare to find a car of this caliber today.   We have a 4” thick folder of documents, original manuals, receipts and a logbook of everything done to this car.   Most of the work was done at a well-known local BMW shop Mike O’Hara.  The records date back to the mid-80’s and includes the last 2 owners. 

The car was purchased by the most recent owner with 54800 miles in 1991; the speedo was replaced 3 months later with a higher top speed speedo that had 27790 miles.  Doing the math, this means the car has 86k original miles.  Very, low miles for a 42-year-old car.  The Prior owner spent $$$ on its restoration and performance upgrades.  I could not think of a better built 2002 than this one, everything was done right.  All of the Racing Dynamic upgrades , the suspension, and engine upgrades really make this a great Sports Car.  The matching Racing Dynamics wheels, steering wheel, spoiler and shift knob are in excellent condition and give this car a great stance.  The suspension is all Bilstien performance shocks and springs, big sway bars make it handle like it is on rails.   We replaced the old Yokohama A-509 tires with more modern rubber, and it goes down the road straight and true.  The suspension is very comfortable and not too harsh.  The engine was redone in 1988 and upgraded, about 40k ago, it was a complete, fresh, blue printed rebuild.

It has Weber performance carburetors and performance exhaust with a cookie cutter exhaust tip.   The motor starts right up and runs very smooth, with no smoke or bad noise. 

We replaced some hoses on it, and gave it a full inspection as well as an oil change when we acquired the car.

I have put a couple hundred miles on this car running around town and it is a real hoot to drive.

The paint is very good looking, we had the front spoiler repainted, but the rest is how we got it.  It does not have any rust anywhere.  It is solid in all the bad areas that these car typically have. Floors, strut towers, rear shock mounts and all suspension points are perfect.  There are no surprises here.  The Paint is very glossy and has little marks or rock chips.

Again it has NO Rust what so ever!  

The interior has Recaro seats and newer carpet, door panels and rear parcel tray.  It is all in excellent condition.   It has had some nice trunk panels built to protect things from denting the inside of the trunk and finish it off cleanly.   Other non-stock upgrades are; Alpine stereo system and alarm and power door and trunk locks/release.

For whatever reason the car has been driven very little over the last 14 years. It was stored properly in a climate controlled shop and we made sure to take all the proper steps when we brought it back into regular use.

 

This car is strong enough to be daily driven, autocross or kept in any collection.

We have gone through this car extensively, and it is in excellent mechanical condition.  Runs very smooth and strong.  It has had a full tune up with distributor cap, rotor, wires, plugs, filters, alternator, thermostat and oil change.

 

 Every time I drive this car, I wish I could just keep it forever!

Editors’ Picks March 2023 | Hot hatch galore and some great luxury SUVs

Tue, Apr 4 2023

This month of Editors’ Picks sees us hand out a pair of nods to the best hot hatchbacks money can buy these days, the Honda Civic Type R and Toyota GR Corolla. You can read more about how they compare in our head-to-head comparison test, but both have their advantages, and we can highly recommend buying either of them. Then we head to Europe to recognize a couple of SUVs that just went through mid-cycle refreshes and came out on the other side just as lovable as they were before. In case you missed our previous Editors' Picks posts, hereÂ’s a quick refresher on whatÂ’s going on here. We rate all the new cars we drive with a 1-10 score. Cars that are exemplary in their respective segments get an EditorsÂ’ Pick designation. Those are the ones weÂ’d recommend to our friends, family and anybody whoÂ’s curious and asks the question. The list that youÂ’ll find below consists of every car we rated in January that earned an EditorsÂ’ Pick. 2023 Honda Civic Type R 2023 Honda Civic Type R front low View 34 Photos Quick take: The Honda Civic Type R embodies what at means to be a hot hatch. It's the best FWD car we've ever driven, and because it's a Civic, it excels with a spacious and pretty interior, too. This is the full package. Score: 8.5 What it competes with: Toyota GR Corolla, VW Golf R Pros: Sublime driving dynamics, magical shifter, gorgeous and utilitarian interior Cons: An expensive proposition, lacks basic luxuries like heated seats From the editors: Senior Editor James Riswick — "The Civic Type R is a resolutely composed performance machine that sufficiently builds upon the delightful man-machine interfaces found in the increasingly impressive trio of Civic Sport Touring, Civic Si and Acura Integra A-Spec. ItÂ’s even more fun and capable at higher speeds, yet remains just as forgiving and easy to drive. The 2023 Honda Civic Type R sure seems all grown up. Maybe itÂ’s because IÂ’m almost in my 40s, (ugh) but I see absolutely nothing wrong with this. The Type R magic is not lost." In-depth analysis: 2023 Honda Civic Type R First Drive Review: All grown up isn't so bad   2023 Toyota GR Corolla 2023 Toyota GR Corolla Circuit front three quarter low View 39 Photos Quick take: The GR Corolla is a serious performance machine that is sure to please any enthusiast with its brilliant driving dynamics. It's only let down by a cheap-feeling and small interior that doesn't lend well to daily driver duty.

GRAND-AM, IMSA announce deal to bring DTM racing to US

Fri, 29 Mar 2013

It won't be until 2015 at the earliest, but the International Motor Sports Association (IMSA), Grand-Am and the Internationale Tourenwagen-Rennen have agreed to a licensing and cooperation deal that could bring a version of Germany's DTM series to the US.
When the American Le Mans Series and Grand-Am are officially combined next year, the resulting body will be called United SportsCar Racing (USCR). IMSA will be the sanctioning body for that series, and DTM races could be run as support events. It was also suggested by an ALMS chief that DTM races could be standalone or join NASCAR and IndyCar weekends.
With the so-called DTM America finally agreed to, there is now a way for manufacturers to run the same DTM-type cars in Europe, the US and Japan - last year Japan's Super GT series agreed to adopt "the basic technical regulations" of DTM for the GT500 class, the top class in the series. That already puts six manufacturers in play: Mercedes-Benz, Audi and BMW that run in Germany's DTM and Honda, Nissan and Lexus that run in Super GT. The DTM oversight body has invited American brands to Germany for the opening round of the 2013 season, and will begin actively courting their participation in the US series. Check out the press release from Audi with comments on the deal below.

BMW may be planning AMG Black Series competitors

Fri, 01 Feb 2013

Word has it BMW has its heart set on giving the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series a run for its money in the US. According to BimmerBoost.com, the German automaker has been making more and more noise about offering a number of specialty models aimed specifically at enthusiasts. While at the Detroit Auto Show this year, the BMW PR machine revealed 2013 will be "an interesting year" and that buyers can expect one or two products aimed specifically at swiping buyers from the clutches of the C63 AMG Black Series. The news came courtesy of Automobile writer Marc Noordeloos' Twitter machine.
Noordeloos reportedly interviewed several executives familiar with the M models while in Detroit, and says the M division would like to offer hardware like the M3 CSL, GTS or CRT to buyers here in the States. That sounds great to us, but saying something doesn't make it true, and manufacturers rarely find it in their hearts to bring money-losing machines to our green shores. Still, that won't stop us from crossing our fingers.
