Finished in the popular and brilliant, factory correct Fjord Blue Metallic, the professional paint job shows extremely well and was performed on all original sheet metal with the windows out. Front and rear aluminum bumpers have a fit and finish that show excellently. All aluminum trim pieces are present and have a brilliant finish.

Inside the trunk is the original tire jack and original full-size Michelin XAS 165-HR13 tire, complete with chalk marks from the factory inspector.

In the late 1960s, Helmut Werner Bönsch, BMW’s director of product planning, and Alex von Falkenhausen, designer of the M10 engine, each had a two-liter engine installed in 1600-2s for their respective personal uses. When they realized they both made the same modification to their own cars, they prepared a joint proposal to BMW’s board to manufacture a two-liter version of the 1600-2. At the same time, American importer Max Hoffman asked BMW for a sporting version of the 02 series to sell in the United States.

This year, BMW celebrates its 100th anniversary. BMW has a long successful history in Europe and the United States. This is an opportunity for you to acquire a part of that history that made BMW a household name in America!
