Papa sorted that 2002 well. Add lightness and GO! That "pop pop pop" of the exhaust is pure joy. This 2002 is tight, handles on a dime and is a blast. This 2002 has the DNA that has been given to its descendants. This 2002 is not the fastest, has zero modern tech etc. But The 2002 is a little tiger who gives its all every time. That endears it to everyone. Thanks for the gift, Papa.

Tedward, that's a beauty!! Nobody needs 600hp if you have one of those. My brother in law bought a '74 2002tii right after I bought a '73 240Z. We used to race all the time. He'd always beat me by a bumper off the line then it was dead even until one of us ran out of balls. Brought back great memories... THANK YOU!!👍

@f.d.robben159 11 месяцев назад

the modern BMW at 14:30 has more power, but gues who has more fun. My aunt drove a white 2002 back in the days. I loved it, but 1976 she got the all new 323i. Oh boy, what an upgrade... Great video as always Greetings from Germany

@RothBeyondTheGrave 11 месяцев назад

Saw a mint 2002 last night casually parked in front of my local Wegmans & talked with the owner for a while. Seeing it amongst all the modern eco bubbles of the day really puts it into perspective, as it was the 1st time I got to see one in the flesh. Man, the future of driving is pure sh*t. We need to go back.

@susannero6401 11 месяцев назад

That looks like a really nicely sorted driver. As you might expect it's something of a Frankenstein. Yes, it's a '76 (the center exhaust pipe is unique to that year). The 5-speed is from a 320i (E21). If the motor is really 1600cc, then it's from the earlier 1600 (but with the later valve cover). The sidedrafts are clearly not stock. Some other nice retro touches: the trapezoidal mirrors are from an earlier car, as is the passenger seat. The handbrake looks like it's from something later (a 320i?). Perhaps my favorite feature of the '02 are the floor mounted pedals, which are perfectly placed for heel and toe, better than any other car I've driven. That and the panoramic greenhouse. It takes a real enthusiast to get excited about this car despite the low (by modern standards) horsepower!

@yankee2yankee216 6 месяцев назад

It takes a discerning driver to fully appreciate low horsepower! I have what turns out to be the fastest production, naturally aspirated, 6-cylinder BMW ever built in my garage, yet despite the BMW being a beautiful car, I prefer my Miata most of the time (especially on 2° roads). Just as there are other, finer values than money, there are other, finer values than horsepower! Low horsepower allows us to drive our cars hard, without getting killed or arrested! It allows us to concentrate on shifting and handling, rather than just hanging on! It permits us to enjoy the scenery better as well. The arguments for low hp are numerous. I have just scratched the surface!

@Durbanite2010 11 месяцев назад

I don't think there are any old BMWs that drive badly - they were such driver-focused cars. Some of the newer ones though, not so much. This 2002 sounds lovely! A neighbour of mine has the very similar 1600TI, also fully restored, which was not sold in the US due to emissions regulations - the 2002 replaced it and was sold in the US.

@Adison0529 11 месяцев назад

These are pops & bangs I like to hear, these are pops & bangs I respect and can get behind, none of that goofy "popcorn" Golf R ahh type stuff. Never been a big fan of such old BMWs, yeah they look good but never had my interest though although it is nice to see one that someone took good care of. I think my favourite parts lookwise are the tiny dash and a clean gauge cluster.

@phil_zupra_b5880 11 месяцев назад

What a beautiful car and that sound is awesome. How the saying goes: Its more fun to drive a slow car fast, than a fast car slow. Rest in Peace to the owner. Sounded like a genuinely nice guy with a great taste for cars.

My 76 02 was the most fun car I've owned and I've owned a lot of fun cars. Currently I've got five NA Miatas, but I will have another 02 one day soon!

@gonzo5648 8 месяцев назад

As a guy who just got done reviving a totally rusted out 76, let me just say that Papa's dedication to get that sunroof working right should be mentioned. The 02s aren't the worst sunroof design BMW ever made (I give that title to the e21), the lack of replacement cables (substitute new from a Volvo), and the dang tight clearances the panel has to to make so as to not scrape paint, and the ease of gunking up the liner with grease and dirt, it all makes doing them sunroofs a serious PITA. Overal, that's a nice looking 02. Also, the A pillar pop out windows are such a fun thing on these cars. Those, the wing windows and sunroof open move so much air I've neverminded the lack of AC on these very much at all.

@mellilore 8 месяцев назад

The sunroof of my 1986 e30 also trapped water somewhere into the chassis. That's why when I "upgraded" to my actual 1976 e21, scooping the market I made sure it was a no sunroof example. Amen about the front pop out little windows. Big shame the e21 miss them. My first car was an Autobianchi A112 and opening only those tiny windows made an entire world of difference in refreshing the interior (and I live in Italy, where summers can be quite hot). If you opened them just a little they were also very effective in sucking out cigarette smoke and almost everything else ;-)

@pp8834 6 месяцев назад

Had a 1600-2 and now a '74 2002 (absolute stock) and I am always amazed by how 'modern' it drives. And by modern, I mean it drives almost like a recent economy car which is an amazing testament to a ~50 y/r old vehicle. Grin machine.

BMWs in the 70s/80s were so much better looking those days. The E30 3 series, E24 M635i CSi, E3 2500/3.0 si saloon, E9 3.0CSL etc. were brilliant drivers cars and in my opinion still look better than the current offerings. Power output is not everything. The exhaust note was awesome!!

These cars really were the first sport sedans. Much better quality and practicality than similar Alfa Romeos of the era. And real size humans can fit inside. It's better to have a smaller engine that you use a lot of, than a larger engine that barely breaks a sweat 😊

Love to see you gush over a lightly massaged, base 2002! I have a '73. and it's interesting to see they switched the turn signal - on mine, it's reversed - the left hand switch is purely for the high beams. I kind of like it, long, thin and tactile. I suppose not everyone liked it!
