My buddy, who knows this car much better than I do, suggested I add this:

1. Brand new fuel tank
2. Weber 32/36 two barrel Carb conversion. Waay better than the stock Solex. 
3. Exhaust manifold is NOT the Thermal Reactor! It's the typical air pump manifold, with ports sealed and air pump removed. 
4. Smog removal completed. Air pump, belts, manifold ports and other correct ports sealed. 
5. Stereo removed, but ready for new one. 4 speakers (2 in door panels, two below rear seats), antenna, wiring in place.

I also added 2 pics, the weber carb and the exhaust manifold.

original text follows:

I saw this car and fell in love with it...then I came to my senses. Time to pass it on to someone who has the time and desire to fix it up (a little or a lot) and drive it. I bought it from the original owner who is, literally, a little old lady in Berkeley. Her grandson did the selling for her and I think he was not completely forthcoming with all that was wrong with the car. The following is an excerpt from his CR listing:


1975 BMW 2002 in Good running condition. Currently a daily driver.

*The vehicle has a NEW water pump, thermostat & 320i Radiator for superior engine cooling.

If you look online you'll see the 320i radiator is a common upgrade.

*Recent rear brakes, full tune-up = cap/rotor/points/condenser/wires/plugs/fuel-air filter & oil change.

Pretty much everything is original. All the glass, seats, engine/trans, starter, etc. Is all original and in good working order.

The vehicle drives very good & has No major mechanical issues. However cosmetically she has numerous flaws. The interior is intact except for the center console. And the original seats/carpet is dirty.

The body has scrapes & one dent on the fender plus one of the marker lights is busted & another one is cracked.

The paint still shines (garage kept) but like I said, a dent, scrapes & poor interior.

All the lights work, all the gauges work except for speedometer, odometer works though. Heat works & she's actually solid enough to drive down to Los Angeles & back right now.

138k original miles. 4 speed manual transmission.

Pre-smog car with a solid rust free body. Owned by my 74 year old Grandmother in Berkeley since new. She just got a new Automatic 3 series Beemer. LOL!


My best guess is that the car was overheating so he did the 320i radiator upgrade only he forgot the little hose that comes out of the front of the water pump. It had a hole in it. Not knowing where the leak was he put stop-leak in it and sold the car. Somewhere along the line it overheated enough to mess up the head gasket.


Again, that last paragraph is just my guess. The little hose has been replaced and it runs really very well when its cold. When it warms up it loses some power and starts running funny. There is also intermittent steam from the tail pipe. A mechanic said “head gasket” but I’m not 100% sure.


Anyway, most of the rest of what the grandson said in the listing seems to true, except for the shiny paint. It has some oxidation as you can see in the pics. Also you can’t go to LA in it till you fix the motor.


Rust: other than in some scratches and such there does not seem to be any rust. From above the shock towers look good. I took a lot of pics under the car that I would be glad to send to you. I believe him when he says the car was garage kept. It looks too good to have been outside for over 30 years.


Most everything works except the speedo, but the odometer does work. The parking brake handle needs to re-attached to the floor. The center console is mostly gone (someone took the radio at some point). The lock cylinder is missing from the drivers door. This is not, of course, and exhaustive list. Please let me know if you’d like to see more photos. After you look through them I’d be glad to answer any questions as best I can.


She’s a project but she really is an awesome car and very fun to drive. The transmission and clutch seem very solid, she shifts very smoothly in all gears. The brakes work great.


I would be glad to help your shipper if needed.


Thanks for looking.

2015 BMW M3 and M4 configurator launched, no lunch hour safe

Thu, 03 Apr 2014

BMW has just made your lunch break a little more interesting by launching the configurators for the M3 and M4. Pricing and options for the new sports coupe and sedan was revealed just a few days ago, but it's always more fun to see the visual effect your personalizations have on the bottom line.
The M3 and M4 start at $62,000 and $64,200, respectively, without a $925 destination charge. However, as soon as the configurator is opened, both models default with metallic paint ($550) and the M Double-clutch Transmission ($2900), plus extended leather on the M3 ($950) and full leather on the M4 ($3,500). This is basically the way they were shown when displayed at auto shows. Of course, there's nothing preventing users from setting up these performance machines however they like.
So sit down at your desk with a cup of coffee or a sandwich and create your perfect German sport sedan or coupe. It's always fun to see how much money can be spent on a dream car.

New BMW M3 and M4 Competition Package to cost $5500

Thu, Jan 14 2016

Can't decide between a standard BMW M4 or the bonkers new GTS? The Bavarian automaker has split the difference with the launch of the new Competition Package available for the M3 sedan, M4 coupe, or M4 convertible. Under the hood, BMW M GmbH upped the output from the 3.0-liter twin-turbo inline-six from 425 horsepower to 444 – neatly bridging the gap to the 493-hp M4 GTS, and not limited to just the coupe. The power boost nets an improvement in the 0-60 time of 0.1 seconds, so if you apply it to an M3 sedan or M4 coupe with the 7-speed DCT, you'll be rocketing to 60 in just 3.8 seconds. At the other end of the spectrum, an M4 convertible with the comp pack and the manual gearbox takes 4.1 seconds for the same sprint. The M division also fitted an active suspension and diff, 20-inch forged alloys, and staggered tires. Vehicles fitted with the package can be visually distinguished by their black chrome tailpipes and glossy black trim. Fixed-roof examples also benefit from new seats, which the convertible has to forgo. So while it'll cost $5,500 to fit the Competition Package to a sedan or coupe, the cost for the convertible falls to a nice, round $5,000.

Woodcliff Lake, N.J.: January 13, 2016 6:00 pm EST...The BMW M3 Sedan, M4 Coupe and M4 Convertible are already regarded as the perfect combination of high-performance sports car engineering with unrestricted everyday utility. From spring 2016, all three body styles will be available with a special Competition Package from BMW M GmbH that combines added sporty personality with enhanced dynamics. As well as extensive handling upgrades, the Competition Package also comes with additional equipment features and a hike in power that takes output to 444 hp. The extra power means improved performance. The BMW M3 Sedan and M4 Coupe with optional 7-speed M Double Clutch Transmission (M-DCT) sprint from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.8 seconds (without Competition Package: 3.9 sec.), while the BMW M4 Convertible reaches the same speed in 4.1 seconds (without Competition Package: 4.2 sec). The sprint time for models with the standard 6-speed manual transmission is likewise 0.1 seconds faster in all cases than without the package.

BMW's DriveNow car sharing shutting down in SF next month

Tue, Oct 6 2015

BMW's DriveNow car-sharing service is suspending operations in San Francisco next month after more than three years. The culprit? Not enough parking spots in the City. BMW debuted both DriveNow car-sharing and its ParkNow service in the City by the Bay in August 2012, initially launching with the ActiveE plug-in vehicle and later moving over to the i3. While there probably wasn't a shortage of folks looking to drive those cars, it was the ending part of that equation that proved problematic. That's because San Francisco hasn't been able to clear out enough street-parking spots to make the program work properly, despite adding 80 spaces for the 150 cars in the program back in 2014. "We hope to return to San Francisco in the future and will continue to engage with the City on possible solutions that will allow you to experience the full benefits of our one-way car sharing service," said DriveNow CEO Richard Sternberg on the company's website. "In the meantime, we are focusing our efforts on new cities where our transportation solution can flourish. We would like to thank you for your loyal support and embracing flexible car sharing as an alternative transportation method." As far as that expansion to other US cities, BMW hasn't been specific. Bimmer also runs the DriveNow program in three Germany cities as well as Copenhagen, Vienna and London. So, DriveNow apparently has an easier time finding parking spots in London than in San Francisco. Why BMW couldn't use a flexible parking system for its one-way rentals like the similar Car2go program uses remains a mystery.
