M42-Powered 1974 BMW 2002 5-Speed

This is a rare find: a vivid green 1974 BMW 2002, meticulously refurbished over nearly a decade by its current owner. Originally manufactured in West Germany, this classic German sedan now resides in the United States. The standout feature is its engine: a 1.8-liter M42 inline-four paired with individual throttle bodies, granting it more power than your average 1970s BMW while still retaining that iconic 2002 growl. It's equipped with a restored five-speed manual transmission for those seeking engagement behind the wheel. Despite its modifications, this car remains faithful to its roots, with an overhauled interior that harks back to its original design era and a body refinished in BMW's classic '74 hue. Currently listed on Bring A Trailer with a bid starting at $5,000 and active up until July 31st, 2024, this isn't just a car; it's a labor of love brought back to life with modern pep and period charm.

Last bid: $31,500
