It's a fun car to drive, it's a car that makes turned heads on is passage, people you come across often sends you hand to congratulate you for your car, the experience behind the wheel is really indescribable, I am always fascinated that a 40-year-old car was also pleasant to drive and that as a design has breathtaking. Is only weak point is the cost of the repairs.Mar 16, 2014

As an owner of a 2800CS, I was already lured by the E9 Coupé's appeal. With the very limited number of Homologated cars of the 3.0 CSL variant, when one became available for sale it was hard to pass up. This one came literally from a little old lady in Pasadena whose husband had recently passed. He was the original owner. The car is even more special in that it is one of only two known examples of the CLS in the Turkis color. It was repainted its original color in the 80s, along with other parts of the restoration, including a "desert sunset" pattern aftermarket Recaro interior, which was immediately replaced with the correct Scheel seats and new carpets. The motor has recently been completely rebuilt and drives as it did in 1973. It feels very much like a car that, even in its homologated "Stadtpaket" form, could win its class at LeMans (which its motorsport cousin did).Feb 19, 2014

What can you say about a running and good looking 40 year old 4 speed Bimmer that is bad? It gets lots of looks and is fun to drive. Twisty roads in the countryside fly by in smiles, even if you get to nowhere and head home a different route. Every 60 plus guy who drove one should give it a try. They are easy to fix, there are people who can help, parts are not a problem, and stuff is simpler. Best to avoid rust issues.Nov 17, 2013

There is lots to like about this group of BMWs, the 2002s. Parts new and used are available although some can be very expensive. Really well restored cars can bring plenty, but cost plenty to get there. It is a fun to drive and very responsive 2 liter. It is not for everyone nor for every season since it is old architecture-heat is manual, manual steering, crank windows, and no limited slip. There is only so much one can do to improve the exterior lighting and visibility of the car. It is a bit of a cult car: old guys like them 'cause we drove them as kids.Sep 08, 2013

Excelente desempeño, La inyección mecánica una vez puesta a punto rara vez falla, a no ser por exceso de juego en las uniones del varillaje de aceleración. Rompe la tapa del distribuidor si los soportes de motor se dañan.
Excelente Performance para un carro de esa epoca.

BMW - so very good performance (it's not called an Ultimate Driving Machine for nothing!) Fairly reliable, considering it's age. Ultra-cool and attractive - especially in Inka Orange of Chamonix white. Good interior features for it's age. Does cost a bit on maintenance though. Very fun to drive!Sep 23, 2009

This just a pic of a car, mine is in pieces in my garage because I am in the middle of restoring it. But I love it to death. It is a limited twin carb Ti from Germany ,but only has a four speed, going to convert ti to a five. Jun 22, 2009

This was for a long time my favourite driving machine, quick, nimble, responsive, in short loads of fun.
The 2 litre engine was souped up with Tii head and pistons, a 306 degree Dr Shrick Camshaft and twin 45 DCOE's. A 1982 five speed made it driveable on highways.
Not the greatest looking of cars but solid, easy to work with and easy to find parts for at decent cost.
The really bad thing about it was it rusted ... everywhere.Jan 23, 2009

The Car is awesome, responsive and built solid. Its pretty stock looking outside exceot if the wider suspension but everything else has been replaced with newere model stuff. Everything is pretty much custommade and fitted.
It sports an M12 Multi valve motor and 325 box. full 325 suspension, M3 diff and custom prop and sideshafts. The car is super fun to drive and is in an immaculate condition. there are disk brakes all around so nothing has been compromised in the safety aspect. It's not extremely fast but I am looking at Billet cams with 292 degree profiles and individual Throttle boddies or maybe a small turbo conversionJan 02, 2009

It's actually owned by my dad at the time. All I remembered was it scared the crap out of me. It could be down to two things.
1) Being it's RWD I have spund it a few times ended up facing the wrong way.
2) The fact that it's a BMW 2002 tii, which is one of these cars that will give any car a run for it's money because it wasn't slow at that era.Jan 08, 2008
