it wasnt will
just some dude taht works there

 

Strange - must have annoyed another person that I don't know - a knack

 

Now I see! I am being tempted by the Germans to return to the BMW fold after 24 years away (that's how long it takes to miss me)

 

You made me think of my old car that was too fragile for even skinny models to lean on. So I google BMW 2002 and find an old company has moved back into the area and is between my office and Narenji's home http://www.2002ad.com/pages/about.htm

Nawwww - my Subie is better. It still has AC, with the heater always on, is not 2" off the ground, has four seats... The performance is similar but 35 years of tech make the Subie, by far, the winner. Sure the M3 is cool but I can have my Sti and my F-150 for the same money and prob less insurance

 

but the cool factor of a 2002tii

 

FI then was a quirkey pain. I had a Ti with webers instead of the Solex which once set was pretty good

Coolest was the turbo from around 72 which came with an Sti size wing in the trunk - you had to dyi as the German gov would not allow it to be sold installed (no US models)

 

i thought the tii was turbo?

 

fuel injected, i believe.....

 

which one was turbo?

 

Plagarized from Wikipedia:

The 1500 had already begun BMW's reputation for sports sedans, but the 2002 may be considered its ultimate incarnation. With its 1,990 cm³ engine, it produced some 120 bhp (88 kW) in the 2002ti, and 130 bhp (96 kW) in the high-performance 2002tii. The 2002tii had a top speed of 185 km/h (115 mph).

The 2002 Turbo (production 1,672) was launched at the 1973 Frankfurt Motor Show. It was the company's first turbocharged production car. Power was raised to 170 hp (125 kW) at 5,800 rpm, with 240 Nm (177 ft·lbf) of torque. Unlike Saab and Porsche, companies which also made some of the first turbocharged production cars around this time, BMW has made little use of turbocharging in its gasoline engines since.

 

until now hehe
