1972 BMW 2002 Racing Dynamics “Roundie” E10 If ever there was an automotive trendsetter, BMW's 2002 was
it. This is the car that literally spawned the soon-to-be-popular
Sport GT category and, in the end, was one of the main reasons that the
Bavarian Motor Werks became the successful car company that it is today. Speed Sports is proud to offer this ultra clean example
of a “Roundie” BMW 2002. This car with
its extremely well documented history and great performance upgrades, I am sure
will be very desirable and sought after.
It is rare to find a car of this caliber today. We have a 4” thick folder of documents, original
manuals, receipts and a logbook of everything done to this car. Most of the work was done at a well-known local
BMW shop Mike O’Hara. The records date
back to the mid-80’s and includes the last 2 owners. The car was purchased by the most recent owner with 54800 miles
in 1991; the speedo was replaced 3 months later with a higher top speed speedo
that had 27790 miles. Doing the math,
this means the car has 86k original miles.
Very, low miles for a 42-year-old car.
The Prior owner spent $$$ on its restoration and performance
upgrades. I could not think of a better
built 2002 than this one, everything was done right. All of the Racing Dynamic upgrades , the
suspension, and engine upgrades really make this a great Sports Car. The matching Racing Dynamics wheels, steering
wheel, spoiler and shift knob are in excellent condition and give this car a
great stance. The suspension is all
Bilstien performance shocks and springs, big sway bars make it handle like it
is on rails. We replaced the old
Yokohama A-509 tires with more modern rubber, and it goes down the road
straight and true. The suspension is
very comfortable and not too harsh. The
engine was redone in 1988 and upgraded, about 40k ago, it was a complete, fresh, blue
printed rebuild. It has Weber performance carburetors and performance exhaust
with a cookie cutter exhaust tip. The motor starts right up and runs very smooth,
with no smoke or bad noise. We replaced some hoses on it, and gave it a full inspection
as well as an oil change when we acquired the car. I have put a couple hundred miles on this car running around
town and it is a real hoot to drive. The paint is very good looking, we had the front spoiler
repainted, but the rest is how we got it.
It does not have any rust anywhere.
It is solid in all the bad areas that these car typically have. Floors,
strut towers, rear shock mounts and all suspension points are perfect. There are no surprises here. The body has a couple small dings and dents ,
on the roof there is a small dent
upwards from too long of a screw being put in.
It is covered up with “M” style sticker.
The interior has Recaro seats and newer carpet, door panels
and rear parcel tray. It is all in
excellent condition. It has had some nice trunk panels built to
protect things from denting the inside of the trunk and finish it off
cleanly. Other non-stock upgrades are;
Alpine stereo system and alarm and power door and trunk locks/release. For whatever reason the car has been driven very little over
the last 14 years. It was stored properly in a climate controlled shop and we
made sure to take all the proper steps when we brought it back into regular
use. This car is strong enough to be daily driven, autocross or
kept in any collection. Every time I drive
this car, I wish I could just keep it forever! Call 503 475 8078 Josh or Matt 503 819 9007 for details Inspections prior to end of auction are welcome.

Tesla in talks with BMW about batteries, charging collaborations
Wed, Nov 26 2014With Toyota and Daimler no longer holding Tesla shares, the electric vehicle company might be looking for a new partner – possibly a Bavarian one. In a new interview with Germany's Der Spiegel, CEO Elon Musk confirmed that he has had talks with BMW execs about future collaboration. "We are talking about whether we can collaborate in battery technology or charging stations," Musk said in the interview, according to Reuters. However, a Tesla spokesperson has tempered things by saying no formal agreements are in place at the moment. In the same interview, Musk reportedly praised BMW's use of carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic in its i sub-brand offerings, and said he would like to have a battery factory in Germany in the next five or six years. The possibility of technological cooperation between Tesla and BMW has been a hot topic this year. In June, Musk reportedly met with BMW execs, and the two companies were also rumored to have met with Nissan to discuss charging technology. When Daimler sold off its shares, there was talk of it opening the way for possible collaboration between the two automakers, as well.
Automotive April Fools' joke roundup [w/videos]
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Happy April, everyone. And we all know what this first day of the month means: April Fools' Day. Today is a national holiday for pranksters with the Internet acting as a serious enabler, and it's always fun to see what kind of vivid imaginations exist out there in the automotive world. The abundance of fake news gets a little old as the day rolls on, but we did manage to get in a few chuckles thanks to a handful of major automakers and automotive news outlets that got into the pranking spirit this year
Some of our favorites this year includes Subaru showing what happens when you combine a bunch of rumors, a Corvette some may have already thought was a joke or Honda providing some in-car innovation circa the late 1980s. Honestly, we're still waiting for official confirmation from Mitsubishi that the recently introduced 2014 Mirage is an elaborate April Fools' joke using a failed design intended for the 1995 Geo Metro. We dug up as much "official" OEM foolishness we could find, as well as some of our other favorites, and posted them all below.
Mystery shoppers love Infiniti, hate Tesla
Tue, Jul 12 2016Infiniti, followed by Lexus tied with Mercedes-Benz took the top two spots for best sales experience according to mystery shoppers from the latest Pied Piper Prospect Satisfaction Index, while EV manufacturer Tesla recorded the lowest overall score. Not surprisingly, premium brands dominated the top ranks. Including the three already mentioned, luxury brands occupied seven of the top ten spots and included Audi, BMW, Porsche, and the only American brand to crack the upper echelon, Cadillac. Toyota, Volkswagen, and Nissan rounded out the first ten positions. The news for domestic automakers isn't good. Aside from Caddy, the only other star-spangled automaker to score above the industry average is Chrysler. The rest of FCA, most of GM, and all of Ford fell below the line. But Pied Piper's mystery shoppers handed Tesla the biggest walloping – the company is ten full points below the next lowest brand, Volvo, and its score of 86 is 17 below the average of 103. It's baffling, considering the company's touted direct-sales model. "Tesla leaves me scratching my head," Fred O'Hagan, Pied Piper's president and CEO, told Wards Auto. "They own all of their stores, so you would think each one would be doing the same thing. But they're not. Tesla is consistent in its inconsistencies." O'Hagan added that there's a "huge variation" in Tesla's store-to-store effectiveness, and that in some cases, shoppers found showroom workers that acted more like "museum curators," Wards Auto reports. It might be popular to call Tesla the Apple of the car world, but based on Pied Piper's work, the brand has a long way to go to emulate the uniform shopping experience of an Apple Store. The news might be bad for Tesla, but even for the brands that scored below average, there's cause for celebration. Only Tesla and Mini lost points in this year's rankings, and only Mercedes and Lincoln held steady. Every other brand, including Infiniti, which topped the index for the first time, gained at least one point. The biggest improvements belong to Porsche, Land Rover, and Mitsubishi, which all jumped five points. Pied Piper's annual Prospect Satisfaction Index uses mystery shoppers – over 6,100 this year – from across the country to assess dealers and generate rankings from over 50 individual factors.
