76 BMW 2002, SOLD

That car IS gorgeous, Bill.  It seems worth every penny of $33k.  

 

I know where you're coming from with the "it's too nice" bit.  The fun of having an 02 is driving it (preferably in the company of other 02s).  If this car were mine I'd be worried about it, constantly.  It is just soooo nice!  

 

Denker's car is nice, too.  It's one of my fave 02s.  

 

Good luck, Bill.  I wish I need an 02!

To go further on pricing, I have looked at at least 10 cars, 4 in person and 6 in detailed photos.  I bought 3 of those cars.  The 74 and 76 models were in the $14k range and were very good starting points for a restoration, both very good drivers and rust free.  The '74 Tii was bought for $22,500.  In my opinion it was also a good starting point for a restoration.  It was a nice enough car and a good driver.  The 2 previous owners had done some things I would have had to un-do and the car needed a total paint job.  I guess  my point is you can buy good driver quality square tail light cars in the $14k to $24k range all day long.  If you send the cracked dash to Just Dashes, buy and recondition Recaros, have a quality over all paint job done you are probably pushing $35k invested.  Bill did a great job in representing this car.  I drove from Fort Worth to KC with a trailer and a cashier's check.  I would have gone home empty handed if it had not been as nice as described.

 

The value of a car is always established by what one is wiling to pay.  I wanted a really nice 02.  I would have ended up building one but I'm not sure I could have built one as nice as what I just bought.

    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
