The BMW New Class sedans of the 1960s were the cars that saved the company. Models like the 1500, 1800, and 2000 established the brand's reputation for building compact, sporty sedans and introduced the legendary M10 four-cylinder engine. They also debuted the 'Hofmeister kink' C-pillar design, a BMW styling cue that lasted for decades.
These sedans are the direct predecessors to the more famous 2002, and they offer a similar engaging driving experience. Collectors seek them for their historical importance and clean, functional design. The market is still developing, with an average price of $16,361 across 24 recent sales, making them an accessible entry into classic BMW ownership.
