Beginning around 1973 I started looking for a 2002tii. My heritage is German and thought I should own a German car. BMW seemed to be the sportiest, in my price range, for me at that time. During my search I saw a 2000CS and could not get it out of my mind. I was hooked immediately. My...

Good video. It must be somewhat confusing driving different cars in the different sessions. Not only do you have to deal with the different handling, braking and power characteristics; you also have right side and left side steering plus left side and right side shifting. I hope at least the...

My 70 2800Cs has the wood shifter knob with veneer on top and it is original. I refurbished it before the veneer got too bad. It still looks decent.

Laguna Seca is a very fun track. I ran it a couple times many years ago in my 2800CS at BMW club high speed driving school events. I also ran it many times in my SCCA Austin Healey Sprite race car. The most recent was at the 2014 SCCA Runoff in which I only finished around 9th due to the...

I would like to come take a look at the wheels. When is a good time to give you a call?

It seems powder coating would produce a similar result. I don't know how difficult it would be to powder coat specific areas that would be need to do the Roundels.

I wanted to attend this year but I am going to be out of town again.

The ignition switch typically sends power to a relay or solenoid that in turns connects the battery to the starter. The relay or solenoid can stick causing the starter to keep going. Check the wire going to the relay to see if it is still sending current when not in the start position.

I have never run the 5 mile course. I thought the original course had tough learning curve but that 5 mile cranks that up another notch or two. Looks like it would be a blast to run though. I had an exciting run over the Crow's Nest (Corkscrew?). I was trying to pass a slower car there on...

I have 14" wheels with 215/60 tires. I run around 33-35 in the front and 30-32 in the rear.

Did BMW really put a red interior in a blue car? I am color blind but that combination does not seem to work very well.

Then I am surprised I miss him being mentioned. My eyes are not what they used to be.

I like most types of music but have a difficult time getting into opera and hip hop. I don't consider rap as music. All of the early rock that has been mentioned is great but I would like to add Buffalo Springfield, The Doors and I am surprised Jimmie Hendrix has not been mentioned. I am a...

My father-in-law rode to Monterey with me one year. We were traveling with another car that had my wife and mother-in-law in it. He made the comment that he was glad to be travelling in comfort in the 2800 CS. It seems he thought the seats were comfortable and I always thought they were...

I feel like I will get infected with the rust virus just looking at that car online.

Yes, I miss him.

Is anyone else getting email messages from Murray? I have been. Either Murray has found a way to contact us from above, someone's bad joke or someone trying to infect my computer. I suspect the later and delete them. Sorry Murray, if it is you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was trying to figure out which outing that was in the group picture but it was answered by OCCoupe. That is my Baikal Coupe parked next to yours. Matt, you do have one fine Coupe.

I may have one. I bought it for my 2800 CS and it was the wrong one. I will try to find it and see if it looks like yours.

The information Marcos posted was good enough. I don't need the A/C faceplate. Thank you Marcos.
