The BMW 2002 of 1968-1976 is known for its pinpoint handling, precise steering, and spirited performance. The 2002, which helped define the sports sedan category, was one of the marque’s first major success stories in the United States. The 2002 Touring model currently available on eBay is an especially rare bird that was never sold in the US.
The 2002 remains a favorite with collectors to this day. Values continue to increase as its reputation spreads, and good examples become harder to find. With its hatchback design, the Touring model adds a bit more practicality for larger loads—and it has a distinctive profile.
