BMW Classic Coupes, 1965 - 1989 - 2000 C and CS, E9 and E24

A definitive guide to BMW's high-performance classic coupes, tracking their rising success from 1965 to 1989. After the doldrums of the post-war years, BMW had felt the need for a flagship grand touring coupe. The 507 of the late 1950s and the 3200 CS that replaced it in the early 1960s may not have made much money for the company, but they were a reminder of its aspirations.
Then in 1964, a striking new coupé emerged. The 2000 and 2000 CS, with their feisty 2-litre 4-cylinder engines, were the affordable foundation on which BMW was able to build its next generation of coupes - and what formidable machines those were!

Topics covered include:
- BMW's hand-built coupes of the 1950s and the first volume-built models
- The mainstream E9 range, with new engines and revised front-end styling
- Racing success for the CSLs, including 6 wins at the European Touring Car Championship from 1973 to 1979
- Engineering and development of the luxury E24 range
- Tuned and modified coupes, including the rare custom convertibles.

The BMW 2002: The real story behind the legend

Introduced in 1968, the BMW 2002 is one of the best-loved automobiles of all time, but its origins have been shrouded in mystery and misinformation for the last 50 years. "The BMW 2002: The real story behind the legend" reveals the truth behind this seminal car's creation. It dispels the myth that the car was built at importer Max Hoffman's instigation, telling the real story of the designers, engineers, executives, and federal regulators who shaped the 2002 into the perfect mixture of performance and practicality.

The book begins in 1960, with BMW's first design drawings for a successor to the 700 coupe, and covers every engine and body-style variant through the final cars of 1976. No mere catalog of specifications, the book delves deeply into the process by which the cars were created: the decisions that were made, and the rationales behind them.
It also tells the story of BMW's business operations in the US during that crucial period, from the days of independent importers Hoffman Motors Corp. and Fadex through the creation of BMW of North America, the Munich corporation's wholly-owned sales subsidiary. As BMW's first real hit in the US market, the 2002 put BMW on the path to becoming a global success story, and one of the world's most respected car companies.
This is the story of how that happened...and how it almost didn't.

BMW série 02, l'enfant prodige de Munich (Top Model)

Closely derived from the Neue Klasse saloon, the 02 series would contribute to the spectacular rebirth of the Bavarian firm, which was then on the verge of bankruptcy. A resounding commercial success that allowed BMW to quickly establish itself among the best European specialists in mid-size sports cars.

Archetypes in the field, the 2002 Ti and Tii are among the most emblematic models of the 1960s and 1970s, legitimate ancestors of our current premium sedans. A career also marked by numerous successes in competition, but also by the emergence of renowned tuners, like Alpina or Schnitzer, who will exercise their talents to make the small BMW ever more efficient...

Das grosse BMW-02-Buch (Reprint)

In 1966, BMW surprised the German public: the 1600-2 entered the automotive scene. With it, the Bavarians perfected their successful concept. At a time when other car manufacturers could only offer technically staid, home-style fare, the two-door sedan soon became the epitome of "sheer driving pleasure".

This book tells the success story of the 02 series. And not just its model history: Alex von Falkenhausen, the brilliant engine designer, reports on the engine development. Separate chapters are devoted to the countless racing successes, the marketing strategies, the Baur convertibles and contemporary tuning.
A look back at the 1950s, a buying guide, numerous unpublished photos and drawings as well as extensive technical data and production statistics complete this book.
