I am looking for a decent condition 2002, preferably a 1975-76 tii. I am looking for a car to fix up for racing it in the SCCA meetings. I would prefer it to be in working condition, no problems. Thank You for your time please let me know if you can find one. P.S. I dont abuse my beemers putting jap crap on it all german parts. I have two other beemers and I am looking to fik one up to have fun in. Thanks again

Good luck man, you'll probably spend $4k+ for a good, running, 2002. Much more for a turbo... Parts are fu*king expensive...my one buddy just sold two front turnsignals from his 2002 for $186 on ebay - no kidding!!

For racing, you'd be MUCH better off financially with an e30 - plus the e30 has more mods and will handle much better. Buy a 325e for $1000 with a blown motor and ut an M50 (From an e36 325i) and drop it in. Chipped you'll get like 195 hp out of that motor, and a MUCH better transmission. You'll pay like $1k for the motor, and probably $2k installing it into the car. You'll have MORE power than a stock E30 m3 (though the engine weighs about 120 lbs more).

Big Daddy: would you please tell me the info. I would appreciate it. thank you.

Epj3: The thing is i already have a E30 4 door, but i would like to take a 2002 to small courses, and just to have fun in like a toy car. And I have a E36 so I know those motors are pretty powerful for what they've got. My uncle owns 2 325e's one which he put a i cam and head in so it gets good mileage while still ataining the i power. He also has a rolled over 325is he bought for parts. I want something else something just for fun. Thanks anyways.

Private Message. Big D wants you to PM him, or he's already PM'd you with the relevant info. On the main bmwboard page hit the link in the top right hand corner that says 'click here to view your private messages'. Easy!
