1974 BMW 2002 Rivera Blue Survivor 



An Arizona car fully updated that migrated to Dallas, TX.  Comes with extensive records from way back.   Just about everything is in great original condition or have been updated.  

Body and Appearance Upgrades

·         Period BWA or similar custom 13 inch wheels with fairly new tires

·        All trim, tail lights, etc. in excellent or like new condition. 

·         Belt trim appears to have been updated and in excellent condition.   A few dents that could likely be removed but shiny new stainless trim

·         Rubber in doors, windows, quarter windows, trunk seal, door handles all look to be in excellent condition.   Appears to have been replaced with car was redone.

  • Fog lights correctly mounted in bumper
  • Special switch with red LED indicator to turn on fan on AC condenser for extra engine cooling when needed.
  • Trunk detailed nicely with new trunk boards with OEM clips

Engine and mechanical upgrades

·      Engine runs excellent and it appears all peripherals were replaced when car was updated (alternator, voltage regulator, water pump, ignition, plug wires, 32/36 Weber carburetor etc.   All seems to function nicely

  • All electrical works, gauges, lights, turn signals... new turn signal switch etc.
  • High performance nice sounding exhaust...sounds great mild raspy tone
  • Shocks and struts in excellent shape.  Assume were replaced when car was redone but need to check
  • Brakes work as new

Interior upgrades

·        Wood and stainless steering wheel new.   Horn button does not appear to work but we can probably get working for small labor charge for new buyer

·       Interior all in place no obvious rips or tears

·        New 13 piece black carpet set

·         Custom cup holder to be included with car… installed in preference of new owner 

·        Dash in excellent nice shape has been reconditioned and textured with epoxy or similar… just a good look but not perfect

·        Previous owner has installed new white headliner.   Done nicely but not exactly stock as has an interior light installed in middle of headliner.    

Other Mechanical and Special Features

·       AC all complete and  works but likely could use additional Freon.  We will add freon for  new owner

·        Clutch and transmission seems to work excellent. 

·        Car accelerates and runs with more power then we think a stock 2002 performs but do not have any details of actual engine build

Issues with car

We really see no issues with car except for new paint.     Appears previous owner who updated car took extreme car to get rare Riviera Blue color correct and use a nice base coat / clear coat paint.   However, tops of both doors, roof and a few spots on hood are not perfectly straight.     Good news is any paint shop (or our paint shop) could sand prep and blend in and make car very close to perfect.   Costs to do this could range from a few hundred dollars to 2 or 3K depending on who does work and how.    All said though just a wonderful car with this one limitation.    Unfortunately, the paint weakness does not really show well in pics .  A new owner could enjoy car without doing anything to paint as unless car is being studied or is completely clean these deviations are not highly noticeable.

 

Vehicle is Sold AS IS, Where IS and new owner will be required to sign bill of sale stating this.    We would encourage you to inspect vehicle and / or request additional pictures or study link to additional pics / or call us and we can walk through every area of car

Weekly Recap: The divergent paths of Tesla and Fisker

Sat, 02 Aug 2014



There's no doubt that Tesla is downshifting while Fisker has been grinding its gears. But it wasn't always that way.
In the wake of Tesla's recent success, it's easy to forget that there were once two California electric carmakers with bright futures.

2016 BMW 3 Series First Drive [w/video]

Thu, Oct 15 2015

If the 3 Series were a person, it would suffer from crippling anxiety. This has nothing to do with the way the car behaves on the road, and it's not a result of its styling. No, it's because so many people expect so much from the 3er. The model is held to the highest standard, which it tends to set itself, and when it doesn't deliver, it hears about it. So it was when BMW introduced the F30 3 Series sedan for 2012. This was a good 3 Series, but few thought it was great. The car lost some of its edge, instead chasing the comfy-luxury crowd that arguably makes up more of the buying public. The vocal Bimmer-loving minority wasn't pleased. Critics, us included, called the car out for its soft suspension tuning, less-than-perfect electric power steering, and chintzy interior details. Enthusiasts instead waxed nostalgic about the E90 generation that came before. But now, the 3 Series can relax again. BMW managed to address most of the issues in this F30 refresh for 2016. The suspension has been reworked, the steering programming overhauled, and the interior is now more befitting a dignified sporty thing from a luxury brand. For good measure, BMW is introducing a new turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six with more power that the car didn't really need. BMW is introducing a new turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six with more power that the car didn't really need. That new engine comes with a new out-of-thin-air badge, 340i, replacing the 335i and its N55 six. The updated 3 Series sedan will continue to be offered as a 320i with a turbo four, and both sedan and wagon keep a 328i with a higher-power version of the same engine, as well as a 328d turbodiesel. While those models' engines are unchanged, they all benefit from minor exterior styling updates (lights and bumpers) and the de-cheapified interior, as well most of the mechanical updates. Most of the content from the former Sport Line package, like Sport seats, the Sport transmission, Sport gauges, gloss black exterior trim, and black exhaust tips, is now standard on all but the 320i. Those extra standard features and the new engine bump the price up $2,050, from $44,745 for the 2015 335i sedan to $46,795 for a 340i. Our test drive focused on the 340i, since it's got the new engine. The B58 mill is a single solitary cubic centimeter off of the N55 3.0-liter's it replaces, but it's based on a new modular architecture.

2015 BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe priced from $118,225* [w/poll]

Wed, 05 Mar 2014

If you're in the market for a high-performance BMW and you live in Europe, you've typically had two range of options at your disposal: you could go for one of BMW's own M models, or turn to Alpina. Though technically independent of BMW, Alpina is about as close to the manufacturer as a tuner can get, and many of its models are offered through BMW's own dealer network.
That's overseas, but in the North American market, BMW has typically taken a different approach, offering just one Alpina model - the B7 - to fill in for a lack of M7 performance sedan. That all changes, however, with the debut of the BMW Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe.
Slotting in alongside the M6 Gran Coupe, the Alpina B6 xDrive Gran Coupe is marginally more expensive and slightly less powerful, but makes up for those relative (and negligible) shortcomings in spades. Both are based on the 6 Series Gran Coupe and both pack a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8, but with key differences. Where the M6 produces 560 horsepower, the Alpina offers 'only' 540. But where the M6 channels 500 pound-feet of torque to the rear wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, the Alpina drives 540 lb-ft to all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic.
