Price: $100
Location: Los Angeles or Denver


Description:

Hey everybody!

 

I'm in the market for a 2002. I've been lurking on the site for a couple months now and I'm getting ready to pull the trigger.

 

Some requirements:

  • Budget: <$10,000
  • Manual
  • Drivable condition (likely not in daily-driver condition at this price range)
  • Color: Prefer Inka or Colorado orange, but I'm budgeting for a full paint job so it's not a deal breaker if it's not orange.
  • Prefer roundie, but I would be okay with square
  • Prefer carbed over fuel injected

 

I'll be in LA until the end of the summer, after which I will be moving to Denver. It would be ideal if the car was located within a reasonable driving distance from either of those cities.

 

Feel free to post here or DM me with any info!

I can’t help beyond recommending buying one in CA, before you leave, based on my last year of looking until I found something local. I’m in NY, but all of the cars of interest were on the West Coast. (I’ll be the first to say that I overpaid by at least 3K, but it was easier than traveling to find the right car. Of course, a month after I bought mine, they started popping up locally.) Take your time and find the right car, as so many seem to have wound up in that area. I think you’ll do better than you think with $10K. You won’t be going to car shows, but I think you can find a daily driver that needs a lot of TLC, but should be pretty mechanically sound.

I'm based in Denver and own a 1973 2002. I may need to sell the car by Fall. The car is a very good driver quality that has been updated. It is Fjord blue and would need to be more more in the $17,000+ range. There are some other 2002's here in town but not many for sale. Let's connect when you get here and see if one might fit your needs. See my profile for a DM. Thx. R

    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
