Welcome up for auction is a FULLY RESTORED 1974 BMW 2002. The BMW 02 series was the car that brought BMW to the US market with sporting elegance. This car has been restored top to bottom. The engine was taken out over 1200 miles ago and fully rebuilt with all new bolts, gaskets and timing chain. The transmission was fully taken apart and rebuilt. A brand new clutch kit has been put in. The suspension was completely gone over with new tie rods, arms and bushing. New Bilstein shocks were added to front and back of vehicle. All new complete exhaust has been put throughout the car with a nice fat tall pipe out the back center of vehicle, giving the car a beautiful sound. The wheels are original BMW basket weave rims with a nice new set of General ALTIMAX RT tires with a real good tread. All belts have been replaced. All new fluids, filters and plugs in car. This has always been a California car so there was no major rust in the vehicle. The car then had a complete paint job in the color Galaxy Blue which has a black appearance until you get it into the sunlight and you see the blue metallic fleck shinning through. I have added a nice racing stripe to the hood in the 3 BMW colors and given the car a couple of M badges to the front and back as a way of customizing this awesome little ride. I have also added a nice air fine to the roof for style. The side lights have all new rubber added. New rubber seals were added to the door handles. The interior has had a complete restoration with a nice new clean black carpet kit. New white headliner put in. For the side panels and seats I have had them trimmed in an awesome Luis Vuitton faux leather with a an old school stich pattern(people are blown away with how cool this interior goes with this vintage vehicle) I have put on a very nice wooden Nardi Italian steering wheel with on old school chrome with blue BMW lettering horn button. I found a very old and rare BMW gear shift knob in great condition I added to the interior. The center console has a very nice JVC CD player with USB hub with a set of new oil temp gauges. Center console is also trimmed in the Luis Vuitton leather. The JVC sounds great with a pair of speakers in the back. I have added a few more fine touches like the ash trays in the back, they are from the earlier models trimmed in chrome in beautiful condition. I have also added a pair of old school chrome rear window cranks.(These old school ones add style which the black ones just add functionality) The front window is brand new with a new rubber window gasket and chrome stripping. The back window has had the rubber window gasket and chrome stripping replace also. I had all the rubber gaskets in the trunk and hood replaced along with all rubber door gaskets replaced as well. Doors open and close perfectly. The trunk has a very nice rare luggage rack and gives it such a great look to the over all vehicle. I have added a nice pair of amber fog lights to the front. It has the very cool European side marker lights. The front spoiler is an Ireland Engineering front spoiler. The rear sports a painted old school European Bumper in the Galaxy Blue.
This is my 5th BMW 02 series I have owned and by far the most with style. Heads turn at every street corner for this awesome little ride. It looks cool and drivers great with very nice handling. Now that I've done my work and had my fun with this awesome 40 year old car, it is time to send it on to it's next owner. This car is one of the finer 02 out there so please bid responsibly. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to call JD at 209 229 6522. I require a $500 non returnable deposit 24 hours after auction ends and require that the car be payed for and picked up within 7 days after auctions end. Thank you and good luck.

Alex Zanardi back in the driver's seat with BMW
Tue, 21 Jan 2014If there's ever been an inspirational story in the pantheon of motor racing history, surely it's that of Alessandro Zanardi. The Italian driver worked his way up the motor racing ladder, making it into Formula One and winning two CART championships for Chip Ganassi Racing back before the series re-merged into IndyCars. Tragedy struck in 2001 when he lost both his legs in a crash at the Lausitzring in Germany, but rather than accept his fate, Alex pushed on. Fitted with prosthetic limbs, he learned to drive a racing car with hand controls and got back in the driver's seat.
Zanardi drove for BMW in the European Touring Car Championship and then in the World Touring Car Championship that replaced it, landing on the podium several times despite his physical disadvantage. He left racing in 2009 to train for the Paralympics, winning two gold medals in London, but Alex apparently couldn't shake the racing bug. BMW modified one of its M3 DTM racers with hand controls for him to test later that year. And now he's returning to motor racing full time.
BMW has just announced that Zanardi will be driving a Z4 GT3 in the Blancpain Sprint Series, the successor to the FIA GT Series and short-distance counterpart to the Blancpain Endurance Series. The car has been modified with the hand controls the Bavarian automaker's racing department fitted to the aforementioned M3 DTM and will be fielded by the ROAL Motorsport team with which Alex challenged for the European Touring Car Championship last decade.
Toyota passes BMW as most valuable car brand
Tue, 21 May 2013An annual market study of the strongest brands across various industries has seen Toyota leapfrog BMW as the world's most valuable automotive brand. Toyota's 2013 brand value rose to $24.5 billion, up 12 percent versus 2012 numbers according to market research company Millward Brown's BrandZ Top 100 Most Valuable Global Brands list. BMW's value fell slightly; down by 2 percent to a total of $24 billion.
Mercedes-Benz finished in third place in the automotive category, up 11 percent from 2012 for a valuation of $18 billion. Honda ($12.4 billion, down 2 percent) and Nissan ($10.2 billion, up 3 percent) rounded out the top five for the category. Volkswagen was the only other auto brand that finished in the top 100 overall, in 100th place. Audi made the greatest percentage gain over 2012, up 18 percent to $5.5 billion, but finished outside of the top 100.
Technology companies dominated the overall list, with Apple, Google and IBM ranking one through three. Couture brand Prada was 2013's biggest gainer, rising by 63 percent over 2012.
Car and Driver lists 10Best for 2013, same as it ever was
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Forgive us for having the distinct feeling of déjà vu, but it certainly feels like we've been here before. By that we are referring Car and Driver and the announcement of its annual 10Best vehicles for 2013. To be sure, it's an impressive selection of cars that combine heart-pounding performance and frugal sensibilities, but it also represents something of a broken record on the part of C/D. We're not so sure that's a flaw, though, as the resulting list is tough to argue with.
Vehicles like the Ford Mustang, Porsche Boxster, and BMW 3 Series have maintained their high-horsepower spots on this list for several years now. Even on the more practical and nimble end, the Honda Accord, Honda Fit and Mazda Miata have not budged. These continued spots are even in light of redesigns for some vehicles such as the Accord, Boxster and 3 Series.
In fact, the only newcomer to the 10Best list this year are the Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ twins, which knocked out the Cadillac CTS-V. We think it would have been a huge misstep to have excluded the FR-S/BRZ, even in light of the supercharged Caddy's lamentable departure from 10Best.
