You are bidding on a 1973 BMW 2002tii.  I can almost guarantee one thing--drive this car to your favorite car event or even the gas station and you'll have more people coming out of the woodwork and commenting, asking questions and complimenting than if you drove up in a brand new M4!!!  This car really grabs people's attention.

A bit of history.  I bought this car as a totally complete non-running tii at a charity auction about 15 years ago.  I kept it covered beside my garage for several years and then sold it to a friend of mine.  My friend did all the great work on the car to bring it to the condition it is in today.  He is  a truly talented mechanic, fabricator and body man.  I bought it back from him a few years ago when he needed some cash for another project.  Since then, I have had to do absolutely nothing to the car but drive it.  Honestly, I have never had to do ANYTHING to this car--no adjustments, tune ups, NOTHING.  I have never tracked the car.  The car shows 75,513 miles but that may not be accurate.  As 2002s go, it is rust free.

The engine has been thoroughly and professionally built.  The head has been ported and polished.  It features dual Dell'Orto side draft carburetors with a Korman intake and Mann cam.  It has remote electronic ignition, remote oil filter, remote electric fuel pump, adjustable fuel pressure and gauge, along with headers and a custom Supertrap exhaust.  The battery has been relocated to the trunk.  The transmission is the original 4 speed but also included in this auction is a 5 speed from a 1982 320i along with the instruction manual to do a 5 speed conversion.  It has a limited slip differential.  The engine starts and runs easily, has tremendous oil pressure, runs GREAT and stays cool.  It is very streetable and very reliable.  I am also including all the original Kuegelfisher fuel injection parts that I have from the original tii.  The body is painted in red has molded in fender flares front and rear along with a front air dam and Zender rear spoiler.  The wheels are Panasport copies with 205/50R15 tires.  A wheel stud kit is installed on all hubs.  Also included is another set of aftermarket wheels with road race tires.  The interior features a full roll cage and Recaro seats.  It has a full complement of gauges including volts, oil pressure and temperature.

To the best of my knowledge everything is working on the car except the heat--just needs a control cable and the clock (they never work).  The clutch slave cylinder seeps a bit of fluid but works perfectly.  You will see a very minor drip of oil (quarter size) or so after it has been parked awhile.  The car needs to have a good going through of the suspension.  If I kept the car, I would replace all the bushings and any worn ball joints, tie rods, shocks etc. and then give the car a proper alignment.  It does have custom springs but it does need a good going through of the suspension.  With wheel width spacers in, the right rear tire will rub the inner wheel well.  This is because the rear bushings are shot.  With spacers out, it is fine.

I have had many 2002s, so along with this auction, you are welcome to take what you want of my extensive collection of 2002 parts.  There are bumpers, transmissions, engine parts, seats, body parts, gas tanks and so on. All free with the car.  If you want it all, bring a big truck and trailer!!

I want the buyer to be happy with your purchase so I have tried to give a true picture and description of the car.  It is a great car and looks VERY cool.  It is not a show car but a very good driver that could be used every day or put on the track with just a little suspension tune up.  Feel free to email me with questions or send me your email and I can send more pictures.  I hate to let it go but I just don't have the time any more to do the suspension.  I'm sure I will think back one day and regret selling it.

A $500 deposit is required via PayPal at auction close.  The balance is to be paid in cash and you will get a free and clear clean title when you pick it up.  Happy bidding and good luck!

Bimmerfest puts BMW's heritage on display and in motion

Wed, Jun 8 2016

The typical Memorial Day weekend is celebrated with family and friends and plenty of food, but for thousands of BMW fans it was spent at Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, CA, for the 17th annual Bimmerfest. The event expanded significantly in the last few years with a move to the massive racetrack complex outside Los Angeles in 2016, and a second day was added this year. The celebration of the Roundel is the largest of its kind, boasting 4,000 cars and 10,000 people in attendance. There's something for just about every type of owner. For those wanting serious time behind the wheel, the oval and road course were open to hot laps, and there was the Bimmer Challenge race from Speed Ventures. An autocross course was set up in an adjacent parking lot. Those wanting to compete in less dynamic fashion had a Battle of the Bimmers car show, and the Heritage Corral and Centennial Corral put the century-long history of the brand on display. Perhaps our favorite part of the event was the BMW Fan Zone display, which showcased a few of the company's most iconic contemporary racecars. A V8-powered 2001 BMW M3 GTR and a McLaren F1 GTR sporting a BMW-developed V12 provided some fond memories of their historic on-track endeavors. If you missed Bimmerfest 2016 then you can check out our massive photo gallery above, and for those of you on the East Coast there will be a Bimmerfest East at Raceway Park in Englishtown, NJ, from July 30-31.

Automotive April Fools' joke roundup [w/videos]

Mon, 01 Apr 2013

Happy 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.

BMW's new i DC Fast Charger will give free juice to i3 drivers

Tue, Jul 29 2014

From solar chargeports to the first SAE Combo Fast Charger, BMW is offering or promoting more charging options for the i3 than most people will know what to do with. This is not a bad thing. At the Plug-In 2014 conference happening in San Jose, CA this week, BMW announced a new i DC Fast Charging unit as well as the ChargeNow DC Fast program, which is similar in some ways to Nissan's No Charge To Charge. Let's start with the chargers. Smaller and much cheaper than other DC fast chargers, an i DC Fast Charger costs just $6,548 plus installation. Remember, it was a big deal in 2011 when Nissan's DC fast charger was less than $10,000. The i DC Fast Chargers use the SAE Combo connector, so will also work in EVs from Ford, VW and Chevy and other automakers, when available. They take 30 minutes to charge an empty i3 to 80 percent full. All a driver will need in order to use the charger is a ChargePoint (or ChargeNow) card. Most of the first units will likely end up at BMW i dealers across the US. In a separate announcement, the ChargeNow DC Fast program will allow BMW i3 drivers to get free charging until the end of 2015 at participating NRG eVgo Freedom Stations. The catch is that they need to use the ChargeNow card at least once by the end of 2014. eVgo is promising to install at least 100 compatible DC fast chargers in California by the end of next year, so this should be relatively easy in at least one of the 50 states. We will have more from San Jose soon. BMW Unveils BMW i DC Fast Chargers and ChargeNow DC Fast program at Plug-In 2014. BMW i DC Fast Chargers, developed in collaboration with Bosch Automotive Service Solutions, are half the size of current DC Combo fast chargers, compatible with multiple electric vehicles and significantly more affordable. BMW i DC Fast Chargers run on the ChargePoint network giving BMW i3 drivers access with a ChargePoint or ChargeNow card. ChargeNow DC Fast enables BMW i3 drivers to charge at no cost, at participating NRG eVgo Freedom Stations equipped with DC Combo Fast Charging, through 2015. San Jose, CA/Woodcliff Lake, NJ – July 28, 2014... At Plug-In 2014, a conference dedicated to discussing key issues for the long-term success of electric vehicles, BMW of North America launched its BMW i DC Fast Chargers which can charge the BMW i3 all-electric vehicle's battery up to 80 percent in 30 minutes.
