2002 Owner age question


jgerock

Recommended Posts

I was born the same year as my 1st car. Three cars before the first '02 (and two more '02s, two e30s and another Ford since).

1) '69 Ford Galaxie 500 4-door, Aqua Blue on black, family car from new. Learned to drive and wrench on it well before 16 and passed it on to my brother in '91

[7 or 8 years without a car]

2) '76 Toyota Corolla ("Coroda" aka "Brenda the Fenda Benda"). Free car, totalled before I got it.

3) '83 320i, was looking for a 2002 but found this. Reliable daily driver for years and easy to work on. Friend Carey still has it.

Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again, but life goes on

I'm getting old fast and having three kids is expediting the process, But I'm loving it.

38 years old

1) 67 Fiat 1100

2) 83 Fiat 127

3) 90 Honda CRXsi (college days abuse)

4) 95 Mazda 626

5) 90 BMW 535im

6) 98 BMW M3sc'ed

7) My beloved 70 02 which will be handed down to my older son Yusuf.

Out of all these cars I can positivity say that the two I love the most are the first one that I learned how to drive on and the last one I have now which brought me back memories along with joy to drive of course.

That's personal. However, Molly was my second car (my first was a 1967 Ford Cortina) and my first new car, purchased when I was 24.

It's sort of like Wilde's "The Picture of Dorian Gray." If I still have the car I bought when I was a young man, then I can't possibly be old, can I?

    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
