Thanks Andrew. So not all original paint. Also - the engine bay looks far too good to be original - the glossy finish would surely have faded? Still a nice looking example but perhaps not 100% as advertised.

Here’s the engine bay:

Thoughts on the ‘original paint’? Should the wheel wells be orange or black? I also see that the spare tire well is orange underneath - should it also be black?

Any chance anyone here lives near Nogales, Arizona? I have confirmed the car with the prior owner who listed it here a few years ago. Looks like a nice mostly original example of a very desirable spec 02.

Very odd - $2m car listed a) on eBay and b) at no reserve.

For reference, here it was not too long ago. http://findclassicars.com/bmw/191946-1974-bmw-2002-tii-5-speed-rare-sunroof.html

He had me at "It runs and stops."

Yes - I saw that car, thanks. It does not have the complete S14 package but it's a nice build and a great owner / story. There are a handful of things I don't like about the car (non-factory color, interior needs refresh, electrical issues, etc.) which will most likely prevent me from bidding. I am now considering finding the cleanest base 2002 I can find and commissioning a build on it. The BaT car might even be a good starting point if the price is right.

Weekend bump.

Thanks - let the cold calling begin

Still looking...

I am (still) interested in acquiring a modified 2002. I want a car with a bit more power than stock. Ideally 180hp+. I am looking for a turnkey car already finished to a high quality. No projects please.

Sorry about he GTR.

Bump...

Another bump... M2 or restomod with performance upgrades preferred.
