1975 BMW 2002. I have owned the car for roughly two years, and when I purchased it I had it shipped here from Reno,
NV. The time I had the car it was garage kept and did not see snow. I did drive it daily April through October,
including multiple 5 + hour trips with no issues, besides dealing with people honking and giving the thumbs up or
hang loose hand gesture (this is a very common occurrence). The car is in excellent shape and has very little rust
considering it was in a dry climate most of its life. I recently took it to Nikolas Motorsports where the entire
engine was rebuilt, which cost roughly $7500. I have the receipts. The engine also has a Weber 38/38. (Engine has
only 38 miles on it, the odometer reads 55,xxx). I was also told that the car has a TII block and a hotter cam, but
cannot verify without cracking the head open.
Parts included in rebuild:
- Ceramic coated pistons and bearings (bored .030 over)
- Engine gasket set
- Rod bearing set
- Main bearing set
- Chain guide
- Head gasket set
- Crankshaft
- Piston ring set
- Rod set
- Head bolts
- Oil pump
- Rod bolts/nuts
- misc. parts
(All engine work has a two year warranty by Nikolas Motorsports)
In addition to engine rebuild, I also had them install a new driveshaft and install new suspension bushings
throughout the car. I have all the receipts from the previous owner as well (Reno Rennsport, etc.)
Other upgrades include Alpine stereo system throughout car with bluetooth, 15" Rota rims with nearly brand new
Yokohama S-Drive tires, Ireland Engineering stage II springs with all around, dash cover (that's a plastic cover,
not the original underneath which has cracking), new window seals in rear and door seals (which need to be glued
better) and that beautiful vintage wooden steering wheel. I will throw in all of the original springs and tires.
I'll even throw in the extra wooden steering wheel, although I feel this one looks better, don't you?
The bad:
I tried to take pictures of all the bad with this car, although none of these issues are severe or major.
- Tears in both seats.
- Speedometer glass fell out, but I do have it, just never got around to putting it back in.
- Rear of headliner is tacked in (in pictures).
- Hood has a weird cracking rust spot, which was POR15'd by previous owner. Rust and cracking has stopped, just an
eye sore.
- Misc. chips and dings on body (I drove it daily, as did the previous owner in Reno...isn't that what you're
supposed to do?)
- Right Window sits kind of funky when rolled up all the way, an easy fix I just never took it apart to make it
perfect.
- Missing washer fluid reservoir.
- Missing left license plate light.
I have tried to list everything about the car as thoroughly as possible along with many pictures, but would be glad
to take any additional pictures upon request.

Editors’ Picks April 2023 | New X1, a Bentley and some luxury EVs
Mon, May 1 2023This month of Editors' Picks features a smattering of luxury vehicles in both sedan and SUV body styles. The new BMW i7 was a big surprise, and the Mercedes-Benz EQE is a lovely enough electric sedan to get our recommendation, too. We've given every other Bentley model an Editors' Pick before, and the Bentayga follows suit. Lastly, BMW nabs a second in April with the newly redesigned X1 subcompact crossover. In case you missed our previous Editors' Picks posts, here’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 Mercedes-Benz EQE 2023 Mercedes-AMG EQE View 38 Photos Quick take: The EQE offers all the niceties of a traditional E-Class in an electric form. Its design is simplistic and bland to a fault, but everything else about it is executed well. Score: 7.5 What it competes with: Porsche Taycan, Audi E-Tron GT, Tesla Model S, BMW i4 Pros: Gorgeous interior, big backseat, advanced tech, excellent driving AMG variant Cons: Bland design, average range/charging speed, questionable value From the editors: Road Test Editor Zac Palmer — "I drove the AMG version of the EQE, and while it's a rocketship of an EV, it lacked the ne'er-do-well nature of the gasoline-powered AMG versions of the E-Class. The interior is beautiful, but I can't say the same for the exterior, even with the AMG add-ons. The AMG EQE is a perfect Benz, but I wouldn't go so far as to call it the perfect AMG product." In-depth analysis: 2023 Mercedes-Benz EQE Sedan Review: A smaller, less expensive EQS  2023 BMW X1 2023 BMW X1 xDrive28i 03 View 31 Photos Quick take: The BMW X1 is the driver's choice in the subcompact luxury SUV segment. Its size and abundance of tech makes it a great all-rounder for anybody's taste, though. Score: 8.0 What it competes with: Volvo XC40, Audi Q3, Mercedes-Benz GLB, Mercedes-Benz GLA, Jaguar E-Pace, Lexus UX, Land Rover Discovery Sport, Pros: Fun to drive, great utility, traditional and handsome design Cons: Interior feels spartan, value is questionable From the editors: Senior Editor, Green John Beltz Snyder — "This segment is a competitive one, but the X1 sets itself apart as the driverÂ’s car.
BMW i8's three-cylinder sounds like it's shaping up quite nicely
Tue, 25 Mar 2014We've run across some rather interesting news... or perhaps we should say interesting sounds. The folks from Bimmerpost have scrounged up a short video showing a preproduction BMW i8 running through a few gears in Sport mode at a quick pace, and if you were concerned that the somewhat eco-friendly nature of the upcoming German sports car would neuter its ability to stir the aural senses, fret not.
Judging by the lovely noise coming from the engine compartment of the i8 in the video, BMW's expertise in tuning high-strung, small-bore engines - remember, BMW Motorrad has quite the penchant for well-conceived motorcycle engines - has come through loud and clear. Now, it's worth mentioning that BMW's controversial Active Sound technology will be included with the i8, so the production car may not sound exactly like this version, which is running with the tech disabled. Owners won't have the ability to disable Active Sound on production i8s.
In related news, Bimmerpost reports that BMW will equip the i8 with an external Active Sound Design system to go along with its Pedestrian Protection System. That means those on the outside will likely hear piped engine recordings from the rear and a sort of "howl" from the front in order to warn pedestrians that the otherwise quiet (when running on electricity, that is) car is approaching. It will also feature technology that can stop the car before contacting a pedestrian.
2014 BMW 2 Series configurator drifts online
Wed, 15 Jan 2014Monday marked the official, live unveiling of the 2014 BMW 2 Series. Not a company to rest on its laurels, BMW has unveiled the online configurator for the replacement to the much-loved 1 Series. Potential customers can select from either the 228i or go all-out and get the M235i. We shouldn't have to explain which car we've been building all day.
As a recap, a base 228i starts at $32,100 not counting a $925 destination charge. It includes 240 horsepower, 258 pound-feet of torque and, when optioned with the six-speed manual rather than the eight-speed automatic, a perfect 50/50 weight distribution (the 8AT balances at 50.3 in front and 49.7 in back). The M235i, meanwhile, starts at $43,100 (although you can't actually buy one for that, because the configurator forces you into a $1,450 Dakota leather interior). It offers up significantly more grunt, with 320 hp and 320 lb-ft from its 3.0-liter, turbocharged straight six.
