1972 BMW 2002 Racing Dynamics “Roundie” E10 If ever there was an automotive trendsetter, BMW's 2002 was
it. This is the car that literally spawned the soon-to-be-popular
Sport GT category and, in the end, was one of the main reasons that the
Bavarian Motor Werks became the successful car company that it is today. Speed Sports is proud to offer this ultra clean example
of a “Roundie” BMW 2002. This car with
its extremely well documented history and great performance upgrades, I am sure
will be very desirable and sought after.
It is rare to find a car of this caliber today. We have a 4” thick folder of documents, original
manuals, receipts and a logbook of everything done to this car. Most of the work was done at a well-known local
BMW shop Mike O’Hara. The records date
back to the mid-80’s and includes the last 2 owners. The car was purchased by the most recent owner with 54800 miles
in 1991; the speedo was replaced 3 months later with a higher top speed speedo
that had 27790 miles. Doing the math,
this means the car has 86k original miles.
Very, low miles for a 42-year-old car.
The Prior owner spent $$$ on its restoration and performance
upgrades. I could not think of a better
built 2002 than this one, everything was done right. All of the Racing Dynamic upgrades , the
suspension, and engine upgrades really make this a great Sports Car. The matching Racing Dynamics wheels, steering
wheel, spoiler and shift knob are in excellent condition and give this car a
great stance. The suspension is all
Bilstien performance shocks and springs, big sway bars make it handle like it
is on rails. We replaced the old
Yokohama A-509 tires with more modern rubber, and it goes down the road
straight and true. The suspension is
very comfortable and not too harsh. The
engine was redone in 1988 and upgraded, about 40k ago, it was a complete, fresh, blue
printed rebuild. It has Weber performance carburetors and performance exhaust
with a cookie cutter exhaust tip. The motor starts right up and runs very smooth,
with no smoke or bad noise. We replaced some hoses on it, and gave it a full inspection
as well as an oil change when we acquired the car. I have put a couple hundred miles on this car running around
town and it is a real hoot to drive. The paint is very good looking, we had the front spoiler repainted, but the rest is how we got it. It does not have any rust anywhere. It is solid in all the bad areas that these car typically have. Floors, strut towers, rear shock mounts and all suspension points are perfect. There are no surprises here. The Paint is very glossy and has little marks or rock chips. Again it has NO Rust what so ever! The interior has Recaro seats and newer carpet, door panels
and rear parcel tray. It is all in
excellent condition. It has had some nice trunk panels built to
protect things from denting the inside of the trunk and finish it off
cleanly. Other non-stock upgrades are;
Alpine stereo system and alarm and power door and trunk locks/release. For whatever reason the car has been driven very little over
the last 14 years. It was stored properly in a climate controlled shop and we
made sure to take all the proper steps when we brought it back into regular
use. This car is strong enough to be daily driven, autocross or
kept in any collection. We have gone through this car extensively, and it is in excellent mechanical condition. Runs very smooth and strong. It has had a full tune up with distributor cap, rotor, wires, plugs, filters, alternator, thermostat and oil change. Every time I drive
this car, I wish I could just keep it forever! Call 503 475 8078 Josh or Matt 503 819 9007 for details Inspections prior to end of auction are welcome.

BMW confirms M4 DTM for next season
Tue, 20 Aug 2013Fans of BMW performance had two events to keep an eye on this weekend: the reveal of the M4 Concept at Pebble Beach, and the efforts of the Bavarian automaker's DTM teams at the Nurburgring. What ties them together, however, is what BMW has in store for next year.
The German carmaker has confirmed that it's already working on a new M4 DTM to campaign in the highly-competitive touring car series starting next season. It didn't reveal any details, but we can expect the M4 to make the same jump to competition spec as the M3 did before it. And with some success, we might add: successive versions of the M3 have won 48 DTM races over the years, starting with the checkered flag which Harald Grohs claimed at Hockenheim in 1987 through to the same race which Augusto Farfus won earlier this year. After taking home the title for BMW in its first year back in DTM last season, Bruno Spengler also won at the Red Bull Ring in Austria two months ago, but the Bimmer teams seem to be having a bit of trouble defending its title against fresh assaults from Audi and Mercedes.
BMW undoubtedly hopes the new M4 DTM will help it turn another new leaf, and we're looking forward to seeing how it all shapes up. Read more in the press release below.
BMW Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coup'e concept echoes 8 Series
Tue, 14 May 2013BMW and Pininfarina are planning to debut a new concept at the 2013 Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este. The Gran Lusso Coupé is designed to be the next logical step forward from the Zagato Coupé, and the one-off creation boasts plenty of BMW earmarks to set the car off as a true member of the German automaker's family. With a long wheel base and a stretched nose, the two door can't help but channel the long-dead BMW 8 Series, and the potent V12 under the hood only reinforces the link.
BMW has been kind enough to slip the world a few teasers, and the images show what looks like it could be the low-slung grand tourer of our dreams. Check out the full press release below for more information, and stay tuned for the full unveiling.
European car sales up 8% in February
Sat, 22 Mar 2014Three weeks ago an analyst increased projections for European car sales this year, expecting them to climb three percent compared to last year instead of 2.7 percent. That number is a postive sign after years of hard times but it turns out February was especially good, overall European sales climbing eight percent on a wave of southern European recovery and discounts - and this comes after five months of gains including January's 7.2-percent jump over the year before.
The only country of Europe's five largest markets to post a decline was France, just as it did in January, Germany, the UK and Italy posting solid double-digit numbers, Spain rocking the charts with an 18-percent increase because of a government program to encourage trade-ins.
The only brand to miss the wave was Volkswagen, dropping 0.8 percent as it watched the double-digit growth at sister brands Audi, Seat and Skoda lift the Volkswagen Group sales up by seven-percent. Peugeot overcame flat sales at Citroën to improve the group by 3.5 percent, BMW and the Mercedes-Benz/Smart combo rose by four percent, the Fiat group jumped 5.8 percent, Ford was up 11 percent, the Renault Group 11.5 percent, General Motors 12 percent and the Toyota clan by 14 percent.
