1976 BMW 2002

1976 BMW 2002 S14 Powered
BMW has always been the German car brand with a reputation for building practical vehicles with some sporty driving dynamics attached to them. Where that really began in the US market was with the BMW 2002 which was first sold in the mid-1960s. Powered by a 2.0 liter inline-4, the 2002 was quick and agile, while retaining loads of interior and luggage space, and exhibiting exceptional build quality. Sold in the United States until 1976, the 2002 is a proper classic and thanks to its great base, makes a perfect vehicle for modifying, with nearly endless possibilities.
This 1976 BMW 2002 is finished in red with black bolt on fender flares, and fiberglass front and rear European bumpers. This example has been comprehensively modified to turn it from a fun car to toss around, to a legitimate performance vehicle with upgrades to the engine, gearbox, brakes and suspension. The original 14" wheels have been swapped out for a set of 16" BBS mesh wheels that are wrapped in sticky 225 Yokohama tires. Sitting behind those wheels are a set of Volvo disc brakes that are a well known upgraded over the original front disc/rear drum setup.
On the underside of this 2002 is where things get really interesting- sitting under the hood is a 2.3-liter DOHC BMW S14 inline-4 out of an E30 M3. This is a legendary engine that produces nearly 200 horsepower and with its 4 individual throttle bodies, offers instant throttle response and an outstanding intake bark. If this isnt enough power for you, this car has been fitted with a Sniper shot nitrous system for an extra boost when you need it and a Magnaflow muffler opens things up and makes the car sound wonderful. This engine is connected to a 5-speed manual gearbox with an overdrive 5th gear, and sends power to the rear wheels. Sitting on a set of Ireland Engineering lowering springs, the car has a great stance and sits perfectly on those 16" wheels.
Inside the 2002, a set of Corbeau racing seats have been fitted along with harnesses- which are attached to the Kirk Racing bolt-in roll cage where the rear seats used to be. Fitted with custom door panels and center console, this 2002 is fitted with a full suite of gauges including an Auto Meter tachometer, Sun Pro Oil Temperature and Pressure gauges along with a secondary water temp gauge. An Alcantara wrapped Momo steering wheel sits in front of the driver and gives a great place to hold on for the ride- and features a button on one spoke to activate the aforementioned nitrous. A Pioneer head unit is paired to a Mosfet amp, 2 PowerBass Subs in a custom speakerbox and modern door speakers, which are great for driving down the highway when you dont want to listen to the Motorsport derived engine.
The BMW 2002 is beloved by car enthusiasts and non-enthusiasts alike- and when paired with BMWs potent S14 inline-4, it becomes a real terror on the backroads. Due to the rise in popularity of both the 2002 and the E30 M3 over the last 10 years, replicating this build would be exceptionally expensive and time consuming and ultimately, this car is finished and ready to be enjoyed as it is and you can add your own touches to it over time.
