Our Take:

The 1976 BMW 2002 is a standout in the world of vintage cars. This model is from the tail end of the 2002's production run - a series that, to this day, is celebrated for helping define BMW’s sport sedan ethos. It played a crucial role in establishing BMW's reputation in the U.S. market, making it both a piece of automotive history and a cultural icon.
This particular 2002 has undergone a comprehensive restoration. A full restoration by Carrigan Auto and the meticulous documentation of service and mileage since 2002 add significant value. Swapping in European chrome bumpers and maintaining its original 'Verona' color give it a classic yet distinctive look, ensuring it turns heads even in a crowd of vintage car enthusiasts.
The engine story here is rather compelling. The car features a factory crate engine replacement, highlighting the attention to detail and commitment to performance seen in its care narrative. The rebuilt and planed cylinder head, along with the addition of a Weber carb and rebuilt Tii mechanical distributor, speak volumes about the love and precision invested into keeping this beauty roadworthy and lively.
Modern touches make it reliable for today’s roads. Updated parts like the Bilstein shocks, Bosch alternator and coil, and a fresh Sachs clutch mean this classic isn’t just a showpiece; it’s ready to take on drives with vigor. It's these thoughtful upgrades—balancing authenticity and modern reliability—that keep the spirit of a classic alive while making it feasible for regular use.
