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

BMW previews new M6 GT3 racing prototype [UPDATE]

Sat, Feb 7 2015

UPDATE: A previous version of this post specified the incorrect weight target for the M6 GT3. The text below has been updated with the correct information. BMW may not compete at the top level at Le Mans or in the World Rally Championship, it may have withdrawn from Formula One and shuttered the Formula BMW series, but it's not without its racing programs. Aside from the Minis that dominate the Dakar Rally, BMW fields the M4 in DTM, the M235i Racing in the BMW Sports Trophy and the Z4 in GT3 competitions around the world. But now it's preparing to launch a new GT3 racer based on the M6. Currently undergoing development, BMW has presented its new M6 GT3 prototype at its factory in Dingolfing, Germany. Based on the road-going M6 coupe, the GT3 retains its 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with dry-sump lubrication, producing over 500 horsepower – which is actually less than the road-going model you can buy, but has to be restricted to meet FIA certification. At less than 3,000 pounds, it is a fair bit lighter than the production version, and promises to deliver blistering performance figures to whichever privateer teams buy one to enter in racing series around the world. The M6 GT3 is slated to hit the circuits next year, when it will join the lineup alongside the M6 coupe, M6 convertible and M6 Gran Coupe, to say nothing of the M6 safety car used in MotoGP. In a related development, BMW Blog reports that the Bavarian automaker is probing potential interest in bringing the M235i Racing to North America. The entry-level model in the BMW Motorsports range, the M235i Racing sells in Europe for the equivalent of $68,000. The next milestone: the BMW M6 GT3 is rolled out at the BMW premises in Dingolfing. 05.02.2015 Munich (DE), 5th February 2015. BMW's new figurehead for the GT racing scene has been given its first run: last Saturday, the test track on the premises of the BMW factory in Dingolfing (DE) provided the stage for the roll-out of the BMW M6 GT3, with which BMW teams will compete in national and international series, as well as at iconic endurance races, from 2016 onwards. The car left the garage for the first time at precisely 14:00 with Jorg Muller (DE) at the wheel. This gave the BMW works driver the honour of creating the next milestone in the development of the BMW M6 GT3. "This is a big moment for everyone who has worked so intensely and passionately on the development of the BMW M6 GT3 in recent months," said BMW Motorsport Director Jens Marquardt.

Which car should win 2015 World Green Car of the Year?

Wed, Apr 1 2015

There were three finalists for the World Green Car of the Year announced about a month ago at the Geneva Motor Show: the BMW i8, the Mercedes-Benz S 500 Plug-In Hybrid and the Volkswagen Golf GTE. With the New York Auto Show upon us and the winner scheduled to be announced tomorrow, we thought it's high time to ask our readers which one should win. There were seven other vehicles named to the finalists list: the Hyundai x35/Tucson Fuel Cell, the Volvo XC90 T8 Twin Engine, the Audi A3 Sportback E-Tron, the BMW X5 xDrive40e, the Kia Soul EV, the Nissan e-NV200 and the Opel Adam 1.0 Direct Injection Turbo ecoFLEX Start. Would you have named one of these to the top three list instead? POLL 14386429 Green BMW Mercedes-Benz Volkswagen 2015 ny auto show world green car of the year vw golf gte

BMW bringing 9 Series concept to Beijing

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

It appears that BMW is ready to take another step upmarket with a new concept flagship luxury sedan at the Beijing Motor Show at the end of April. The showcar is said to preview the company's rumored 9 Series, a sedan that would be positioned against top trims of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, like the rumored S600 Maybach.
According to Automotive News Europe, the concept sedan wears styling language adapted from the curvaceous BMW Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupe (pictured above) shown at the 2013 Villa d'Este Concours d'Elegance in May. It rides on BMW's new, modular platform - codenamed G11 - for the company's largest cars, an architecture also expected to be shared with the next 7 Series and future Rolls-Royce vehicles. It's rumored to bring the weight of the 7 closer to the 5 Series, which would be several hundred pounds lighter when comparing the base models of both current vehicles. We spotted the next-gen 7 Series testing over a year ago, and both it and the 9 Series are expected to go on sale in 2016.
Unfortunately, at the moment there is no official information about the concept. "We don't have any official news yet on anything in Beijing," Julian Arguelles, BMW USA spokesperson, tells Autoblog. However, it's heartening to think that BMW might be adapting the gorgeous shape of the Gran Lusso for production.
