1974 BMW 2002

118,000 miles

NO RESERVE

This car was recently restored by the owner who was obviously passionate about BMWs. I have been commissioned to evaluate and sell this car by his widow. I was trained by BMW of North America, am a BMW certified master mechanic who has worked professionally on BMWs for over 25 years. My first of many BMWs was a 1974 2002.

After thoroughly looking at the receipts and the car itself, I have found the following positive points:

  1. The frame up paint job is beautiful.

     

  2. The repairs to the floorboards and rear shock well were done professionally; no rust left behind; everything welded.

     

  3. The only visible rust is the typical rust along the bottom edge of the passenger door only (replacement door included; see #4 below).

     

  4. This car comes with extra parts:  2 front doors that seem to be rust-free, window regulators, front vent windows and frames, driver side mirror, one door window, oil filter, and service manuals.

     

  5. Except for the driver seat seams that are worn, upholstery is in great shape (see photos).

     

  6. Listed below are all the new or fairly new parts and modifications that were installed:

  • Weber DGAV 32/36 carburetor

  • Short shift kit

  • Removable moon roof

  • Rear shocks

  • ANSA muffler and straight pipe to replace resonator

  • Lowered suspension

  • H & R rear springs - progressive rate 29-201R

  • New front springs

  • Bosche high output coil

  • Pertronix electronic ignition

  • Bottle cap 14" wheels from later model 3-series

  • Pirelli HP 185/60 tires

  • Zender front air dam

  • Interstate battery and cables

  • Headliner

  • Door gaskets

  • Most window gaskets

  • Vacuum gauge - mounted to firewall

  • Everything on interior that is needed for air conditioning (no compressor, condenser or hoses)

  • Emergency brake cables

  • Carpet

  • Most metal brake lines and some rubber lines

  • Front brakes

  • Rear brakes

  • Dashboard

     

This car handles really well, tracks well, feels very tight, starts and runs great. (no smoke)

Even though it shifts perfectly, the transmission output and layshaft bearings are noisy. I believe the owner planned on replacing this 4-speed with a 5-speed transmission.

The interior light switches are missing.

There may be other improvements that I have not spotted.

If I didn't have so many BMWs myself, this car would not be listed on Ebay :) It would be in my garage!

 

Payment and delivery:

Non-refundable deposit of $500 required to be paid within 48 hours of end of auction through Paypal. Deposit will be credited toward price of car. Payment (by certified check or cash only) must be made and car picked up within 10 days after auction closes.

NO RESERVE

GOOD LUCK!

BMW Vision Gran Turismo takes M235i Racing to the virtual extreme [w/videos]

Wed, 14 May 2014

Late last year, Mercedes-AMG worked up a concept car called the Vision Gran Turismo. It presented it at the Los Angeles Auto Show, but that wasn't the point: the point was that it would feature in Gran Turismo 6 on the PlayStation 3. It wasn't the first concept created specifically for the popular driving simulator - following similar projects by Citroën and Red Bull Racing - and as we reported just a month later, it wouldn't be the last. What we have here is the next.
Looking like an even more extreme version of the M235i Racing, the BMW Vision Gran Turismo concept builds on "the tradition of the successful BMW touring cars of the 1970s" in a heart-pumping, if unfortunately strictly virtual form. It's got more extreme aero than the aforementioned M235i Racing and a striking take on the M division's signature light blue, dark blue and red stripe over white livery.
Underneath the digital bonnet sits the same 3.0-liter inline six as the M235i, but pumping out a prodigious (if theoretical) 549 horsepower - far more than the 333 hp in the actual Racing version or the 320 hp in the roadgoing model. Of course BMW has given it an ideal 50:50 front-rear weight distribution and a curb weight of 2,600 lbs - nearly a thousand pounds less than the roadgoing M235i.

Apple Watch watches your BMW i3, i8

Wed, Sep 10 2014

Apple unveiled details about its long-awaited Apple Watch yesterday and we now know that the $349, er, watch will be released to the public early next year. Amid the millions of features the watch has is the ability to provide real-time information on the battery charge level in a BMW i3 or i8 plug-in vehicle. The watches can also help locate the vehicles if, say, they're parked in a crowded lot. Because so many of us lose our Bimmers on a daily basis. BMW spokesman Dave Buchko confirmed the integration of the Bimmer-centric features on Apple Watch to AutoblogGreen, and noted that the product will let users monitor heating and air-conditioning as well as remotely unlocking the car. "This latest device has the potential to change how owners interact with their BMW, paving the way for a new level of personalization and immediacy," Buchko said. The new wrist-based connection allows for a nice bit of exposure for the German company's new i series. As of the end of last month, BMW had sold 2,082 i3 battery-electric vehicles in the US since starting domestic sales in May. It also sold nine of i8 plug-in hybrids in August, the first partial month for US sales.
