1974 Bmw Baur 2002… Rare…rare..rare on 2040-cars
Walnut Creek, California, United States
|
I have for sale a very rare 1974 2002 Baur, only fewer than 2000 of these 2002s were ever converted by Baur and they were all intended for European market. This one was imported new in 1974 to East Coast and ended up in Florida, in 1981 the original owner sold it to his sister, she has owned it up to a month ago! I bought it from her and had intended to give it the TLC it so deserves but my fianc? is not having any of it! We are moving locally to her house and she wants me to sell my old cars. So, here is your chance to own a piece of BMW/Baur history.
Here is the list of what's good; - The car is not perfect but is in good overall condition, it was repainted about 7 to 10 years ago, paint still has a nice shine. - Body has very good integrity, it's very original, both Targa top and rear soft top are in serviceable condition. - Interior is good condition, front seats don't have any issues, rear seat is good with exception of three holes, dash has the usual cracks, door panels are in good condition. - Glasses seem to be original. - Mechanically it's very sound, original carb and choke are intact, engine runs very smooth and strong, transmission is solid and goes through gears with ease. - It was featured on the cover of the June 1981 issue of BMW CCA Roudel magazine, how cool is that? - It's in very original condition with minimal rust. - The steering wheel is a vintage three piece sport signed MOMO, this alone is worth between $700 to $1000. - Lights, wipers, horn, heater even cigaret lighter work. The bad, - There are a few paint bubbles on the hood. - The rust I could see is under driver's side floor board. - Turn signals do not work, probably a relay. - Tires are bad and should be replaced. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions, I have many more photos and will be happy to send them. Thank you.

BMW 2 Series to wear 230i, M240i nameplates
Wed, 19 Nov 2014BMW might not be done tweaking its naming scheme quite yet. Of course, at this point, the jumble of numbers on the back of the Bavarian models has no connection to what's under the hood. So there's not much reason to stop changing the monikers now.
As Autoblog reported a few months ago, BMW is slotting upgraded, turbocharged four- and six-cylinder engines called the B48 and B58, respectively, into the 3 and 4 Series. If this happens, the 328i/428i would become the 330i/430i, and the 335i/435i would turn into the 340i/440i.
Obviously, this change hasn't happened yet, but the same member of 2Addicts, a portion of the larger Bimmerpost community has now claimed that the 228i and M235i would get the same treatment. They would become the 230i and M240i, respectively, with the new engines.
BMW Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coup'e bows at Villa d'Este
Fri, 24 May 2013The first collaboration between BMW and Pininfarina is this blunt-force two-door called the BMW Pininfarini Gran Lusso Coupe revealed at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este. Said to be the "interpretation of a luxurious BMW Coupé as seen through the eyes of Pininfarina," once you get past all of the design-speak, you can focus on the full-bodied and keen-edged missile sitting on 21-inch wheels.
The long wheelbase makes for short overhangs. Up front, BMW's design language gets scraped across a whetstone, everything getting sharper, including the usually round cat's eye headlights that have gone dihedral. Under the hood is a V12, behind the twin-kidney grille in matte-sheen aluminium and high-gloss black. The same aluminum treatment also backs the taillights, the lenses designed to let air flow through them.
Inside is room for four, a cockpit canted toward the driver, Foglizzo leather in black and Tobacco Brown, 48,000-year-old kauri wood from New Zealand, deep pile carpet on the floors, a patterned virgin wool headliner and an "oblong aperture in the roof liner" set off by white LEDs.
This BMW 2 Series ad has run afoul of Aussie ad watchdogs [w/poll]
Tue, 29 Apr 2014A complaint by an Australian movie-goer has put the brakes on an extended in-theater ad campaign by BMW, and drawn the attention of the country's Advertising Standards Board. According to the anonymous complaint, the ad "portrays an unfavorable message, contrary to safe and sensible driving."
The ASB upheld the complaint, which said the ad for the new M235i showed driving "typical of hoon activity," thanks to the burnouts, dusty drifts and runs up to redline. It's that last one that seems to have gotten the spot in the most trouble, with the ASB acknowledging that even though the car wasn't shown breaking the speed limit, the ad was in violation of a voluntary code of conduct for automotive advertising, according to Australia's Go Auto.
BMW doesn't seem to agree, pointing out that the ad uses creative editing, aggressive camera angles and other filming tricks to "add visual impact."
