The 02 Series presented in 1968 is regarded as one of the classics of recent automobile history. One of the attractions of this model series was the sports version, the 2002ti. It made a name for itself as a powerful, sporty car that boasted 120 bhp under the bonnet. Almost 29,000 BMW 2002 models were built in the first year of production, selling at a price of DM 9,250.
