New List Price of a 1969 BMW 2002?

[Redtail]

Hi, Does anyone know what the brand new MSRP for a '69 2002 was? How a bout a 3.0CS? I'm just interested to see how it slots in with some of the other cars from the era.

FYI the MGB was $3,250 and the Porsche 911T was $5,750.

Thanks

with 2002's just under $3k - in '69, I think 1600's were up to about $2800 & and 2002's were pushing $3500.

I shopped both at a dealership in Anaheim CA in the fall of 1969 - I was recently separated from Navy active duty and just starting what was then called "junior college" - the "out the door" cost of a base 1600 (including tax, lic, etc) was close to $3500, and I seem to remember that a 2002 sunroof was significantly over $4k. Way more than I could swing on GI Bill............

with all Max Hoffman's "non-optional options" plus the real options (Michelin XAS tires at $59 and a sunroof at $135) mine was $3452 from the dealer, plus taxes etc. I believe the advertised price was $2988, but that didn't include the "non-optional options"--bumper guards, radial tires, sway bars, chrome exhaust pipe tip, tach, vinyl upholstery and reclining seats.

don't know about a '69 02

but i DO remember when an older sister drove up in her shiny new '74 Malaga automatic with sunroof and gave my father and me a ride in it.

i recall she said she paid about $6000 for it at the time, to the horror of my father, who considered such expenses, needless extravagance.

My '72 new, with sunroof and radio cracked $4,500. The tii was another $700 if memory serves - a bridge too far. I financed the car for three years as it was. Ahhh, youth.
