+Stephen Silfies (Racer Freddy) Anyone here who gave up The Smoking Tire cuz it wasnt as good as /Tuned with Matt Farrah and just got an unexpected gift?
I like the car, save for two things: -I personally prefer the early 02's with circular rear lights. -The touch-screen is a no-go. If you have to have one, put it in the glovebox, or under some removeable cover.
My heart ached with pain at the end when they showed a touch screen and 10" subs. Rip all that modern audio out of the car and you've got something special. You don't need any music except what the engine makes on a beauty like that.
Awesome Awesome Awesome. BMW has never been able to duplicate the 2002. It's such a fun car to drive. I learned how to drive a manual transmission, in a 1974 2002. In the summer of 1981. The original engine had been replaced with a newer engine. And that car was quick. Loved it.
Literally started laughing out loud when they got to the stereo. All this "period correct" awesomeness then the the stereo, lol. (Super rad that they're going to auction it for charity though.)
On the other hand, you'd be pretty happy to see them doing this video if you did have one. I'd do what the other guy said anyway, get an E21, they're half the value and a lot less well known. They're a bit more modern, still dead gorgeous looking and you'll be seen as having made the cool alternative choice, rather than the 2002 which everyone already wants.
Being a restomod, I don't think I could've stopped with an M10. It just screams for an S14, but I definitely get the desire to keep the stock engine, and the crazy cost of an S14 now.
When he said he’d like to be in the South of France in the car, I get that, we took my little BMW convertible to the south of France this year and it was wonderful. It’s not a classic, but it was fun anyway and I expect it will be a classic someday, meanwhile we just enjoy it
Whoa! Memories: I bot a 1972 2002 Tii from the Galles folks in Albuquerque, drove it to Miami without AC middle of summer in '85. The car was best at stoplights against unsuspecting GTI's and could take just about any hatch off the line with all of 140 horses. Put an ad in the car trader magazines and a guy from Dominica flew to Miami and gave me the same $4000 I'd paid for it 2 years earlier and took it out.
Very nice coupe ! I have a 1976 unrestored. I have considered putting a X1 engine in it but I know that 200 HP in a 2000 lb car would require many mods. The X1 does have a 2 liter4 cylinder with twin cams and dual turbos.
+James Cooper Looks like a '74, side exit exhaust is what gives it away ('75 and '76 had a center exit), and the Clarion guy is wearing a shirt that says "1974 BMW 2002 Clarion build"
My only complaint about the car is that they didn't build it on an older Roundie car (pre '74). Otherwise I'm so filled with envy of this car that I can't even.
Anybody here from the One Take on the Smoking Tire?
meee

Agreed!
This car is absolutely perfect in my opinion save those two things.
This makes me miss drive
That is honestly the most beautiful BMW I've ever laid eyes on, and I'm a self proclaimed enthusiast.
This BMW is gorgeous
Thank you for bringing /TUNED back!!!! I've been wondering if theses days were behind us. So happy!
/TUNED is back! It's a good day :D
+Roads Untraveled and you didn't have to use your AK.
I love classic cars! What an Era!!
Beautiful work. I’m really impressed!
Man, I missed an honest Drive episode again. Thanks Matt!
So stoked that Tuned is back in action.
That single center exhaust is awesome
cat looks flawless definitely a car worth buying good luck at the auction! and we need more tuned videos they come out really great!
What a beauty! I had a 2002 tii so many years ago and wished it was here still
Hey Matt. Both vids on this car was very enjoyable. Well done.
Another /TUNED episode is back? Finally
Great video guys!
THIS JUST MADE MY DAY! Dream Retro car
Oh man, that's a nice car! Great video!
Adorable classic car - love the analogue era.
My heart ached with pain at the end when they showed a touch screen and 10" subs. Rip all that modern audio out of the car and you've got something special. You don't need any music except what the engine makes on a beauty like that.
The classics never die.
Smoking tire and /TUNED review of the same car, back to back! So cool
my dad had a 2002tii as his first car, amazing things.
Great editing!
The bmw 2002 is such a nice car i love it!
Beautiful car!

woooohooooo!!!!!!!!!! tuned is back!!!!!!!! great review matt!
Ich hatte einen 2002er mit runden Heckleuchten , eines der schönsten Autos die ich je hatte ...
Glad tuned is back
Finally ,Tuned Episodes!!!
Literally started laughing out loud when they got to the stereo. All this "period correct" awesomeness then the the stereo, lol. (Super rad that they're going to auction it for charity though.)
Love 2002's, this is such a clean build. Awesome how your going to auction it off as well and give the money to charity.
Tuned is back?! It's been years!
Nice job!
The 2002 here is beautiful inside and out! The BBS really suit the car too.
Those wheels are incredible...
Love this car!
please stop promoting these. they get fucking expensive and I haven't bought mine already
+Tankred Zrn hahahah it might be better to get a e21 then get yourself a nice m20 2.5 in there with efi and go nuts
On the other hand, you'd be pretty happy to see them doing this video if you did have one. I'd do what the other guy said anyway, get an E21, they're half the value and a lot less well known.

+Alfred Munkenbeck I like the classic shape, the e21 looks a bit like the current bmws. I have seen a 02 with m52 or m54 engine swap, that's my dream
Tankred Zrn Fair enough, the round tail lights are the one to have then, I've always wanted one of those!
+Tankred Zrn i wouldnt throw a m52 in a 2002 it gets to heavy to handle nicely
This car looks delicious!
love it =D so gorgeous
Beautiful icon. Definitely on the bucket list...even more than the new M2!
Autophorie or you could put an s14 in one and have a real m2
Too much music, not enough engine sound...
TUNED!!!! Finally!!! Started getting tired of one takes
+Jamaican Stiggy Haven't we all.
I'm in love 🤩
another "TUNED" episode. Finally!!!
how can they dislike this....
Beautiful thing.
cool piece. cool BMW. what is the name of that spicy little track playing at .21 and at the end? thank you kindly
Oh my god, an actual review from Matt. The one takes have fallen stale.
Being a restomod, I don't think I could've stopped with an M10. It just screams for an S14, but I definitely get the desire
to keep the stock engine, and the crazy cost of an S14 now.
I miss my 3 versions of 2002's. Black, Garnet and Orange.. The start of the "Sports Sedan" craze!
epic little car
how did they work that air box w/ the webbers?
When he said he’d like to be in the South of France in the car, I get that, we took my little BMW convertible to the south of France this year and it was wonderful. It’s not a classic, but it was fun anyway and I expect it will be a classic someday, meanwhile we just enjoy it
My favorite BMW
when are you guys uploading the big track car of the year thing?
I want one!
Notificarion SQUAD!
very NiCe cool

Tuned is back! What about Big Muscle?
Great pieces! Some more info would be great though...most interesting in my opinion, are specs. Solid facts always hush the children... ;-D
Is that Thad's shoulder that shows up from time to time? Good to see Tuned back!
If you don't love the 2002, then you don't love cars.
Hermoso. 😎🤙🏻
Words can't describe that car. See you at Barrett Jackson auction.
Mis primeros autos como mecánico..BMW Panamá...
Best BMW ever!
I'd kill for this car!😊
What an incredible car. So much taste in that set up. Stylish as fuck.
Wow, A Shinola Blizzard. Nice. Not the usual watch someone would spend over a thousand dollars on but its still cool.
I WOULD GIVE MY SOUL,TO HAVE MY 02 BACK...MY E30 IS NICE,BUT MY 02 WAS A BEAST!!...Awesome bimmer!!!
Wow, I haven't seen a 2002 in at least 10 years on German roads and here I see one driving around in the US. lol
tbh I don't really like that car, but I watched and liked the video anyways because your show is awesome.
Very nice coupe ! I have a 1976 unrestored. I have considered putting a X1 engine in it but I know that 200 HP in a 2000 lb car would require many mods. The X1 does have a 2 liter4 cylinder with twin cams and dual turbos.
What a cool little Beamer.
I'd do terrible things to own this car...Unforgivable things.
Haha exactly!
How do you frame off restore a car with no frame?
i had a 74 great car !
Thank you for not making us pay to watch this, honestly I haven't seen anything on drive since you guys started making us pay, I never payed
A 76 2002 was my first car. Of the exact same color as this car
They are very strong these Germans! It is prodigious! I had the same there is of it 30 years old and I regret having sold it.
Considering all the modifications , is it really a 2002 ??
Fuck beautiful car....these things aren't too far off being in a museum.
/Tuned is back !!! :D
This car is perfection. Would not call it a canyon carver, but definitely a swift canyon cruiser.
Beautiful shot at 8:08.
whre is this place??? please
How much did it sell for
I'm happy to say I have a '73 2002 myself. One day... it won't have all that stereo stuff, that's silly. But everything else is awesome.
omgggg /TUNED!!
what year is it? it has the square tail lights, so it is a little newer
+James Cooper Looks like a '74, side exit exhaust is what gives it away ('75 and '76 had a center exit), and the Clarion guy is wearing a shirt that says "1974 BMW 2002 Clarion build"
sweet, thank you
beautyfull car, my aunt has one, cant waith till she agree to sell.
What happened to big muscle??
My only complaint about the car is that they didn't build it on an older Roundie car (pre '74). Otherwise I'm so filled with envy of this car that I can't even.
100% this.
Want a build like this with a 3.0 CSi. I think it has a lot of unknown potential.
I want that car...
I like the title making fun of Petrolicious
