1974 BMW 2002tii (Silver)
MotoeXotica is pleased to announce another cult classic from the seventies, an exquisite 1974 BMW 2002tii. Also known as an E10, this 2002tii was the epitome of performance available at the time with the forward-thinking design of Kugelfischer fuel injection. The market for these cars has started to move upward drastically in just the last year, this is a fleeting opportunity to obtain a relatively un-touched version before they get out of reach. This example, with41,096 miles, has a Polaris Silver exterior that really makes this 2002 stand out. (The paint has minor spots and the occasional scratch on it and thereandrsquo;s a small dent in the roof just forward of the metal sunroof.) There are two driving lights mounted over the front bumper and inboard of the headlights and all four lenses are clear and intact. The front bumper is mostly in great shape but has a small blemish and a chrome bubble in front of the driverandrsquo;s headlight. Car has a Nakamichi AM/FM stereo with CD player but there are no speakers. Radio aerial is in its usual place, attached to the driverandrsquo;s side A-pillar. The back bumper has a half-dollar sized blemish and another one on the driverandrsquo;s side. The engine bay is extremely clean, however, the windshield washer is inoperable.

Open the driverandrsquo;s door and youandrsquo;re greeted by rich, black upholstery and black carpeting and BMW floormats on the inside. There are a pair of bucket seats for the front passengers and a bench seat for those in back. The seats are in great shape and show minimal wear. Package shelf behind the rear seat is also in good shape. Contrasting light-colored headliner and silver framed dome light are in outstanding condition. The standard Gertag four-speed manual transmission was upgraded to a BMW five-speed unit. The aforementioned sunroof opens by hand. Thereandrsquo;s a wood-rimmed Nardi steering wheel to grip and full instrumentation andndash; speedometer, tachometer, fuel and temperature gauges andndash; although the speedometer may need a new cable. The dashboard has a small crack just to the right of the instrument binnacle. All windows, rearview and sideview mirrors are clear and intact. Vent windows and driverandrsquo;s side glass open. Carandrsquo;s previous owner purchased this awesome Bimmer out of California in 2005. Since then it has been stored during winters; only driven during good weather. The owner prior to the previous one restored the car, converting it to a roundie. Frame is straight and previous owner reports no accidents that they were aware of. Helmut Werner Bandouml;nsch, BMWandrsquo;s director of product planning, and Alex von Falkenhausen, designer of the M10 engine, each had a two-liter engine installed in a 1600-2 for their respective personal uses. When they realized they both made the same modification to their cars, they prepared a joint proposal to BMWandrsquo;s board to manufacture a two-liter version of the 1600-2.
