Does the fake tisa wear the vin number on the nose like yours? 

 

All I have seen is the new VIN plate on the fender. I have requested they show me their hand before I show them anything more than what I have.

 

We'll see where this goes.

I've been having an email exchange with the head of BMW Classic, Hakon Tjaum about the situation. He said that the owner of the other car is pushing them to do something but they are resisting as I think they realize my car is the genuine. He told me that he suggested to the owner of the other car that he go back to who he bought it from and try to get satisfaction there. I'm hoping that is the end of it.

 

Stay tuned.

When you look at the radiator support on the “fake tisa” you can see that it has an early nose and not correct for the car! 

1st pic it’s from the “FAKE TISA”. 
 

2nd pic from a mid 64’ 1800. No holes on support

rest of the pictures from 65’ nks. 
tisa, 1800ti, 1800 

so I think it’s safe to assume it had a nose job at some point!

I’m not really surprised; they have grilled me from Germany about my NK ownership and all I wanted was a few spare parts for my lowly 2000!

 

For what reason was BMW Corporate grilling you about ownership?  Do they have certain parts not advertised under Mobile Tradition?

I managed to get from Germany new drip rails and I think that one side was never advertised as being available. Had to send to Corporate copies of my drivers license and title.

 

BMW Seattle was very helpful in fulfilling my request, I have to say.

    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
