THE OVERVIEW
Offered for an appreciating new owner is this rare classic 1976 BMW 2002a two-door sedan! 
Finished in what appears to be mostly all original Sahara tan paint over camel and tan interior,  this last-year of the venerable double '02 dports a superb running 2.0 liter inline four cylinder engine with new Weber carb mated to a rare factory-equipped three speed automatic transmission with stopping power provided by front disc and rear drum brakes. This cool classic E10 sports very nice gold-centered E30 BBS mesh wheels with excellent rubber, updated cd stereo, virtually flawless vinyl dash, reclining bucket seats, extra original carb and air cleaner and more. The working five digit odometer shows 13,900 miles which is strongly believed to be just about 114,000 actual miles. This 1976 2002 is being sold with clean and clear California title, current smog certificate for California buyers, comprehensive maintenance records and the aforementioned extra original parts. This is a great find here on Ebay for about  the cost of the sales tax alone on a new quickly-depreciating three series BMW sedan!

PLEASE CALL 650-307-2251 FOR QUESTIONS, TEST DRIVES AND/OR MECHANICAL INSPECTIONS

THE BODY AND TRIM
As I hope is articulated in the many photos here, the exterior of this 1976 BMW is in quite presentable very original condition throughout with a nice shine to the paint and rust-free shock towers front and rear. Imperfections include
a scraped and touched up area on the left front fender, miscellaneous rock nicks and brush-touched up spot, some dinging on the aluminum beltline trim pieces and a small surface corrosion bubble on the bottom of the right front fender. Overall I would deem this car a nice structurally RUST-FREE "ten footer"

THE INTERIOR
The interior of this classic '02 is in good to very good, not quite mint condition overall. It sports excellent door panels, nice original headliner and original loop carpeting. AMAZINGLY near-flawless vinyl dash, working gauges, speedo and odo. This car is actually equipped with factory Behr a/c with correct console though the blower motor is inop. It has a nice updated cd stereo with dash-mounted tweeters, nice smooth crank sunroof, working crank windows and the groovy vent wing windows. Imperfections inside the car include sun fading on the original loop carpeting, a split on the driver side seat seam and inop blower motor.

THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE
This classic BMW starts, runs, shifts, brakes and handles very well. With its whopping 100 horsepower on tap it will certainly not keep up with a new 135i but has surprisingly peppy acceleration, solid secure braking, smooth up and downshifting automatic transmission, tight non-power assisted steering and crisp rattle-free suspension. Driving this car with its responsive handling and open airy cockpit harkens back to why the 2002 was THE car that put BMW here on the map here in America four decades ago!

NHTSA urges owners of recalled Takata airbag vehicles to take immediate action

Mon, 20 Oct 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Department of Transportation are taking the unusual step of issuing a followup press release urging owners of certain recalled vehicles "to act immediately" to fix their cars and trucks. The problem in question concerns the repair campaigns for rupturing Takata airbag inflators issued in June and covers a long list of models from Toyota, Lexus, Honda, Acura, Mazda, BMW, Nissan, Infiniti, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC, Oldsmobile and Pontiac.
While NHSTA doesn't specifically say why the recall is vital in the new release, Toyota's own explanation in its newly announced renotification campaign earlier today sheds some new light on the topic. According to the Japanese automaker, in testing, Takata found a possible link between the rupturing airbag inflators and high humidity. NHTSA is advocating that all owners pursue repairs immediately if they haven't already done so already. This is especially crucial for those drivers especially in Florida, Puerto Rico, Guam, Saipan, American Samoa, Virgin Islands and Hawaii because of the humid conditions there.
We don't need to tell you how dangerous an inadvertent airbag deployment could be - even in a stationary vehicle - but adding to the Takata issue is fears that the deployment could lead to shrapnel being sprayed into the cabin.

The Aston Martin DBS Superleggera leads this month's list of discounts

Wed, Oct 14 2020

The average price of a new car in America last year was $35,932. This month, the biggest discount off the retail price of a new car in America is awfully close to that figure at $34,001. For those keeping track (as we do every month with a post like this one), that's by far the largest discount we've seen so far this year, and it means buyers of the 2020 Aston Martin DBS Superleggera are paying an average transaction price of $273,819. The British automaker calls the DBS "the ultimate production Aston Martin." With a 715-horsepower V12 engine pulsating underhood, sufficient to push this grand touring coupe from 0-60 in a skosh over 3 seconds and on to a top speed of 211 miles per hour, who are we to argue? If that's too rich for your blood — and let's be honest, it's still a whole heck of a lotta money — the next biggest discount might be at least a little more attractive. According to data provided by TrueCar, buyers of the 2019 Mercedes-AMG GT are seeing discounts of $23,103 off the car's average sticker price of $159,995. That's a heck of a lot of car for $136,892, though admittedly still expensive. But at 14.4% off retail, it's a better deal than the $132,122 average transaction price of the 2020 BMW M8. The BMW's $16,497 discount equals 11.1% off the M8's $148,619 sticker.

BMW discussing new plant with Mexican authorities

Mon, 19 Aug 2013

Drawn in by low wages and manufacturing costs, BMW could be the next automaker to set up a manufacturing facility in Mexico. Automotive News is reporting that the German automaker has had discussions with local Mexican governments regarding a possible assembly plant, but there is no word as to when a decision may come down. Last we heard, BMW was reportedly looking to build the 3 Series in Mexico.
A key determining factor for this new plant is a free-trade agreement between the US and Europe, which according to the article, would give BMW better "flexibility and cost structure" to open another plant in North America. In terms of luxury automakers, Audi is currently building a new plant in Mexico and Mercedes-Benz is considering opening one in conjunction with Nissan for the CLA-Class, and in the bigger picture, Honda and Mazda are also preparing to kick off vehicle production in Mexico.
