hey miller i saw an older yellow bmw thats been sittin at the gas station across the street from the trainstation its bin sittin there for awhile

[TROLL]

a 2002 is not 'just some bmw' just so everyone knows. if you know of one for sale then i'm sure he'd be interested to know, but if you're not talking about a 2002 specifically then i'm sure he wont be interested.

[TROLL]

here's one, needs some work but it sure is cheap... http://philadelphia.craigslist.org/car/329743374.html

That thing is worked beyond belief and its an old 3 series. The 2002 is not the m3 so im not interested. Thanks for the craigslist link :thumbup:

[italianblaze]

what is special about the 2002? Ive never herd of one until this post

[bastid]

West German BMW had one as of a week or two ago. I believe it was purchased from West German Motors and serviced there. Single owner car from what I remember, too. I would highly recommend avoiding WG BMW for service though.

[MPowerKai]

Yes, what is so special about the 2002?

[whiteturbo]

theres one in bergenfield New Jersey in some guys driveway, needs work.

"The 2002 is one of BMW's most famous automobile models. A coupé based on the four-door 1600, it cemented the company's reputation for compact sporting sedans. The 2002 was the forerunner of the BMW 3 Series. It was produced from 1968 to 1976." -Wikipedia

[98GSXdude]

How can people not know what a BMW 2002 is? This blows my mind. Its probably one of the most famous cars ever built.

[92dxman]

It was one of the better driver's cars of that area, it was one of the few beemers that didn't get luxoed out. Also, it was one of the first modern European production cars to have a turbo (73-74ish) before Porsche and Saab started integrating them. I've seen a couple swaps done with E21 and E30 era powerplants under the bonnett.

[italianblaze]

im fairly new to the car world have not done to much reading up but thanks for the quick response from troll and 92dxman

[esunbaboon]

This place is up in easton and I've seen a few 2002's there. The owner of the place is really in to them.

If you go to the restorable treasures section they have 2 for sale.

Saw this on a vw site a little while back. He's looking for a trade but I am sure he would take cash.

not close, but maybe worth the drive if things pan out... hell there's a GTI out there that looks tempting too...we could go together, ha.

This still needs work, it has gone back up on ebay about 3 times lately. I'm looking for something local to tow or a little distance but driveable.

[DropTopChevy]

theres one in bergenfield New Jersey in some guys driveway, needs work.

Can you get the number for me?

[whiteturbo]

i will try.

[DropTopChevy]

The one troll posted from craigslist sold and the two up at the place in easton arent even together :-( Hoping whiteturbo can get me that number. I might go up to easton to atleast check those cars out.

[TROLL]

that ebay auction one that 'needs work' looks nice as hell to me, if it really only needs those few little things.

[DropTopChevy]

that ebay auction one that 'needs work' looks nice as hell to me, if it really only needs those few little things.

I imagine it has a high reserve. Ill settle with a resto one for now as long as it isnt in millions of pieces lol. But i might look at those ones in easton even though they are in pieces maybe even check out the 1602 too.

[TROLL]

if you find any solid E30 coupes that catch your eye along the way, let me know!

[DropTopChevy]

I have seen a few 4 door E30's in my searching. The donation place on lincoln highway actually had one a week or so ago. Still waiting to get that number from whiteturbo

[whiteturbo]

i'm trying almost a definite that i will get it tomorrow!

[whiteturbo]

ok, well i got the number pm an email address i got 3 pics (2 look the same haha) This car is in A lot worse shape then i thought but seems that the guy would take A tiny amount of cash to get it outta his driveway. so yea pm and i'll give you all the info :)

[DropTopChevy]

Bump
I just PM'ed whiteturbo. Troll i saw a E30 coupe over in lambertville for sale it was grey and they were asking 2650 for it and its right on route 29.

[foss]

e30 m3's are nice as hell and pretty hard to come by. i'd take one over an e36 any day.

[92dxman]

This might be a longshot but someone over on Grassroots Motorsports has one for sale but it's down in Knoxville, Tennessee:

That is exactly what im looking for. I wish i was a little closer. I'm considering cause that seems like a decent price but will it be worth the hike out there.

[DropTopChevy]

Thanks for the pics whiteturbo. I'm going to try to take a look at the car tomorrow even though its pretty rough looking. But for the right price i might pick it up.

[DropTopChevy]

Found 2 at that place in easton and im considering on buying that one in north jersey. Just wanted to bump this to see if anyone found anymore cars whole or parts cars.

[whiteturbo]

how did it work the whole jersey bmw work out? was i right about the guy?

[MrCleanY0]

I'm not sure if you're interested but there's a shop in Mechanicsburg that has a few 510 shells. IMO 510>2002 but then again, I used to own a 510 so I'm a little partial.

[DropTopChevy]

I never actually met the guy in jersey. As i was coming up he said he was going out to help his friend buy a cell phone. So i didnt really get to completely look at the car like the trunk cause i had wanted to check the rust on the shock towers but i might just buy that car for parts anyways for like $200.

[DropTopChevy]

Funny ray, very funny

[DropTopChevy]

That guy that wave found on craigslist got back to me and 2 people already have interest but i hope they bail out cause i would love to have just a Tii motor for that price. Keep them coming if anyone sees anything on the side of the road. I have my eyes open for one while im here in west virginia.

[DropTopChevy]

The Tii that wave posted sold :-/ I was hoping to get a Tii. Maybe ill set my hopes high for a Tii but im still looking for any 2002 if anyone sees one out there for sale.

[DropTopChevy]

Bump cause I got a job.

Can the mods move this please? :mrgreen:

[TROLL]

moved it. get one, make it look exactly like your avatar, then go for a walk while i put some romantic music on and dry hump it in the garage...

[grmreapr]

BMW with an S2000 swap. :drool:

[DropTopChevy]

Looked at the blue one on sunday and its really nice, asking a bit much, but nice. And the red one is a little rougher than I thought after contacting the guy.

Still looking.

Edit: Contacted a guy from near NYC with a nice yellow one. Looks good from the outside online. (fingers crossed)

[TROLL]

the swap idea doesnt appeal to me as much, i like the idea of keeping it original, especially with a tii.
i guess the blue one is that blue/gray one above? it is a bit more money but it sounds like its better than the average with a fresh motor and lots of other upkeep and money put into it. i dont know pricing on this stuff but it seemed like it might be worth it. is he willing to move on price at all? i just know a good condition tii isnt easy to come by...

He said he's firm unless we were talking in cash. I seriously want the Tii. It was fast. Only problem it had was the windows weren't sealing properly on the weather stripping in the back and it whistled as it went faster. Besides that and some minor surface underbody rust it looked good.

[DropTopChevy]

Thats badass...do it...

I would only do that if I got a base 2002. If I got a Tii I would never destroy it like that.

[lownslow95]

Whats a Tii any way?

[Kerplunk105]

Tii is the higher performance model. I think its also two doors vs the normal four.

[lownslow95]

Oh I got ya.

hrm theres one at the classic euro dealer on rt38 out by 206. bright orange iirc. interesting idea, I wouldnt mind doing a 70's import sports sedan but with me i think it would either be an audi fox or a fiat super brava. good luck!

Do you know the name? I tried looking it up and came out empty handed.

I'm probably going to take the time to look at the Tii in the Lehigh Valley.
I found a beautifully done 2002 http://www.bmw2002faq.com/component/option,com_forum/Itemid,50/page,viewtopic/t,303715/ not a fan of the orange though.

[lownslow95]

The orange doesn't look to bad.

[TROLL]

haha if the owner of the tii in allentown took very good care of the car for 10 years, what does that mean for the other 25?

my friend had a gray 2002 BMW I used to call it "das boat" because it looks like a damn boat. I did really like it though. I am in the market for a 89 325i or something of that nature.

[cmr076]

didnt read all the posts but are you looking for an early one (with the round tails) or a newer one with the square tails? my dad was just telling me about how he had a 2002 alpina back in the day!

Doesn't really matter. I prefer a later (square taillight), less problems since they got taken care of in the designs of earlier years.

[Dave]

southhampton imports or something like that

Also, does anyone know why people angle the gauges like that? Is it so that you can set it up that all the needles point up when all is good?

[DropTopChevy]

Wouldn't have a clue about the gauges, but that does seem like some good logic. Shame its only a 1602, but its still the same body shape.
