This 1973 BMW 2002tii (chassis 2762709) is summarized as a numbers-matching example that has minimal rust. The seller claims to have owned the vehicle for 16 years and 23,000 miles, during which time they’ve converted the interior to black and installed Recaro front seats. Described as being ready to drive, the car shows well in photos, and the description mentions a large spare parts package that can be included for the right price. Find it here on Craigslist in Dayton, Ohio for $18,500 or trade for a Honda S2000. Special thanks to BaT reader Mike for this submission.

Finished in Sahara tan from the factory and then repainted by a subsequent owner in much preferable Malaga red, the car looks pretty good from the outside, but paint does appear dull in a few areas, and fitment of the driver’s door is a tad off. Elsewhere we see straight bodywork, nice looking trim, and OEM rolling stock. Rust is said to be minimal, but no low angle or lift shots are provided.

The interior has been fitted with aggressively bolstered two-tone front Recaros and an aftermarket steering wheel, but everything else looks stock. It seems like carpets were redone at some point. Sisal mats are visible in the passenger and rear foot wells, and door panels and dash look to be in good shape. Few other details are given, but judging from how everything looks in photos, the aforementioned color conversion seems to have been done well.

The seller offers no word on maintenance or repair history, but the engine bay looks stock including Kugelfischer injection and its related plumbing, including the factory airbox.

Pending an inspection of the mechanics and a once-over of the underside, the car sounds and looks like it could be a good one. Bring an S2000 and a 5-speed for swapping.
