The BMW 2002 Turbo was a groundbreaking car, representing the brand's first foray into turbocharging for a production vehicle. Launched at the 1973 Frankfurt Motor Show, it was based on the fuel-injected 2002 tii. The addition of a KKK turbocharger pushed the 2.0-liter M10 engine to 170 hp, a massive figure for the era. Unfortunately, its debut coincided with the 1973 oil crisis, and production ended after just 1,672 units were built, all in left-hand drive.
Its rarity and historical significance make the 2002 Turbo a true blue-chip collectible. It's the ultimate evolution of the beloved 02 Series, the car that cemented BMW's reputation for building brilliant sport sedans. The aggressive styling, with its riveted fender flares, front air dam, and iconic reversed "turbo" script, is instantly recognizable and defines 1970s performance.
Buying Tips
- Rust is the biggest enemy of any 02 Series. Pay close attention to the shock towers, floors, rocker panels, and the spare tire well. The Turbo's fender flares can also trap moisture, so inspect beneath them carefully.
- Authenticity is paramount. Many standard 2002s have been converted into Turbo replicas. Verify matching numbers and look for Turbo-specific items like the red instrument surround, boost gauge, and specific engine components.
- The turbo system itself requires a specialist's eye. A healthy KKK turbocharger spools up smoothly, but watch for excessive blue smoke on startup or acceleration, which indicates failing seals. Rebuilds are expensive.
- A comprehensive history file is crucial at this price point. Look for detailed service records that show consistent, knowledgeable maintenance, especially regarding the engine and turbo.
