My 1970 BMW 2002

Great car Kris. Love the stock sleeper look, tipped off only by those sweet RS. Sahara and the other 70s colors are so underrated, and so fresh given current colors.

I’m an 02er as well - building & obsessing over a ‘76 some 20+ years now ;D
Unlike MPower, mine is now anything but stock, but still M10 powered.

The proportions and angles on these cars are great. Low beltline and tall glasshouse are excellent.

I can't think of a car sold new today with a low beltline.

Beautiful, Tom. I'm imagining there's something hot under the hood. Love the black and gold theme.

Thanks Kris.
...under the hood ;-P

Hey guys,

Just picked up my first 02 less than a week ago. It is sitting in my garage needing some work before I can feel safe driving it around... starting with new rubber. I have a bunch of parts coming in.
I'm excited to work on it and drive it!
