Here's the place to post your best 2002 photos. Perhaps a bit like the stance thread, but with less emphasis on the "stance", and more emphasis on the car and photo quality.      I'll start...

State of Texas said I was finished enough today to drive on the road... I still need to address a few items but mostly complete, here are some pictures of the finished product ...

Got married just in time before the travel bans started.  Drove to prom in this car 14 years ago...only appropriate that we drove away from the chapel in it too.

Just drove my Targa up to Vancouver, WA for safe-keeping for now. We're selling our SF house in May, and needed to get it out of my garage. Not sure where we will end up in the PNW, but Vancouver is fine for now.

 

11-hour drive, and not a blip of a problem. I'm always amazed and thankful for what this great little car still has in it. Stellar drive up 5. We're in the Bay Area until mid-June...

This thread is just so full of awesomeness!!   B)

 

@jgerock, is that actually a real ti ?
And furthermore, is it Caribe or Riviera blue ?

 

@otto, even though I'm a RRL kinda guy, I must confess that your Mint green SRL looks thoroughly 70's yummy...

Paul,  You will be missed in the Bay Area!!!  Your knowledge, insight and willingness to help is what I love about this community.  Thank you for all your guidance over the years! I would not be a proud 02 owner today if it was not for you.   It's sad to see that the car is already gone.  You will certainly need to hang onto that license plate! :)

Bryan, wow. What a kind and thoughtful soul you are. We go way, way back, and you, my friend will be missed as well. 

 

I still have fond memories of hanging out last May at your uber-cool Mini Car Show. Deschodt's shot from that day is probably my favorite photo ever of my car. Thanks, Deschodt. Well done.

 

Bryan, hope to see you at the Swap & Show. I'll be carless for once...

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
