DON'T MISS THIS EVENT!  Bo and Keith put on a great event--you really can OD on 2002s, not to mention getting all your 2002 questions answered. It's fun every year (even in the rain) but will be extra special this year due to the anniversary.  

 

I'm planning my annual caravan from Dayton, passing through Cincinnati and Louisville, then west through KY and TN, crossing the Mississippi on I-155, then across northern AR to Eureka Springs, overnighting in Paragould AR.  If you want to join up along the way, drop me a PM and I'll add you to the e-mailing list.  

 

cheers

I would love to do this sometime but it is two 12 hour driving days from Huntington Beach in my NK.  I know, Joseph made it a couple of years ago from NorCal.  Any from SoCal considering this?

Chris, I am very much wanting to do this next year.   If it doesn't work this year, perhaps you'd consider next year?

Chris, if you do the drive in 3 days it's more manageable doing 500 miles a day. Carry plenty of change for Oklahoma, bags of quarters, nickels & dimes for their $1.15 tolls. Plan to arrive in Eureka Springs Thursday the 26th in the mid-afternoon.

    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
