Hey PNW 2002-heads!

 

This Sunday is the big annual BMW show at the LeMay museum in Tacoma. To kick it off, we are having a 2002 pre-meet in Seattle (Madrona Park) at 8:15am. Around 9:15 we’ll all caravan down to Tacoma and park together for the show, which starts at 10am.

 

Address: 670 Lake Washington Blvd, Seattle, WA 98122 … or map to "Madrona Park.”

 

Hope to see you there!

    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
