Congrats, glad someone that likes 2002s won.  Looks to be a great car.

Love ‘em!  First thing my wife said when I called her was, “Why are you calling me before you call the Club to confirm this is legit!?”  The second was, “you’ve talked about wanting a 2002 since the day I met you.”  That was more than 30 years ago…

Thank you!  Not yet.  Title arrived today, so now I need to get shipping taken care of.  I’m in Minnesota, so as badly as I want to road-trip it home, this time of year gets a little squirrely and salty up here.  It’s rust free and I’ll shoot to keep it so - but it’ll get driven when the snow and salt clear!

It's official on the CCA site - I'm the lucky winner, and couldn't be happier to join you lot!  I've a little bit of a history with BMW (e36/5, e46, e83 manual, and e90), but have been in love with the 2002 since I lived in Germany in the early 80's.  I've always wanted to own one, but never in a million years did I expect to win it!  Special thanks to the several of you who have been helpful in taking my messages and answering my (many) questions.  I've lurked around FAQ for years, so time to dive in.  This site and the members are truly unique, and I mean that in all the best ways!

I woke up this morning thinking, “who won that damn thing?”

 

I’m really glad you posted.  Congrats - I’m really glad it went to someone that will appreciate it.  Wanting an 02 since the ‘80s…wow that’s a while.  And you got a really good one, too.  That’s the trick.

 

Good price, too.  

 

Yeah here in SW Ohio they just dumped a bunch of salt on the roads.  So no 02ing until we get a good rain.  Could be a couple of weeks.

 

Enjoy it!  Hope to see you out and about.

Much appreciated, Scott, thank you!   I love that you can measure when the salt will be gone in weeks…it’ll be April/early May before I can say the same!  I’ll just need to live vicariously through you for a bit!  Enjoy it!!

Great story and SO glad it is going to someone who really wants it. Sounds like a win for everyone involved + we get another board member fan(atic).

 

Congrats!

I love a worthy winner. Sounds like you and car were meant to be. So happy for you and here's to many fun and safe miles ahead.

Another welcome! You have some patience to wait 40 years for a car you love. I would never last that long!

Thank you - and hello, RVA!  My folks and brother and his family are all in the Richmond area.  Brother and fam in Glen Allen, folks in Brandermill!

Thanks, @m42002!  I was close a few times, but needing a daily in salt-country, kids, paying for their education...it just wasn't the right time.  But kids are on their own, wife hasn't kicked me and retirement is within site.  Looking forward to the Nevada '02 joining the drive for the rest of my days!

I consider this just real luck and fate smiled at me. She was on my side, so I decided to play at one of the best Australian casinos. A friend just showed me no deposit bonus codes 2024 australia and I decided it was time. I got two in one, so to speak.

 

Great win, congratulations! Wish I'd stumbled upon it earlier, would've loved to participate. Mine's in much worse shape, although I'm trying to get it back on track.
How's it doing these days?

First drive today!   I’m sitting in the family room giggling now.
