Vehicle Description

West Coast Classics are proud to present an exceptionally well maintained and striking example of this southern California 1974 BMW 2002 2 Door Sports Sedan with the 4 speed manual transmission! This is an obviously always garaged car with no rust and no history of any accidents and which was recently comprehensively mechanically overhauled with a rebuilt and rebored engine with a new timing chain, a rare and highly internationally desirable example of the iconic 2002 model BMW!
The BMW 2002 was the high performance model (1972-74) of the 2002 model line which changed the automobile world forever with the introduction of an everyday compact 4 seater car with a measure of sportiness and sophistication, that along with BMW's legendary reputation for engineering and high quality construction, caught the attention of sport car enthusiasts the world over. The assembly, finish and workmanship of these cars was first rate but with a stark and business like 'no nonsense' approach with a black instrument panel, dished three spoke steering wheel which was designed to make easily visible the important speedometer, tach and fuel/temperature gauges, hand cranked windows and in true sports car tradition there was no radio, no power steering, no door locks, no cruise control and naturally, no air bag!
This particular model is quite stunning and striking with the ugly '74 year only front bumper having been removed and boasting Recaro bucket sports seats. This particular car is finished in a beautiful 'Cream' color which was painted at great expense and has a very striking 'Recaro' sports seats Tan interior. There are no signs of there having been any accidents or damage or previous rust! Please note there is some minor wear on the drivers seat bolster and a small crack appears in the dash.
The car drives exactly like such a well maintained model should with over $8K in recent service history including the engine rebuild, and must be seen and driven to be truly appreciated! The 2.0 litre engine is extremely strong and powerful and the four speed manual transmission has a very smooth transmission shift through all the gears and the temperature always remains cool!
You will surely look long and hard to find a finer example of this rare and internationally desirable 1974 BMW 2002 2 door sports sedan model for the ultimate compact 2 Door Sports Sedan car driving experience!
