A very rare 2002 Turbo, one of BMW’s first turbocharged cars, has been put up for sale and fetched north of $150k.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Initially launched in 1973, the BMW<\/a> 2002 Turbo has been a pioneer to one of the most famous lines of cars produced by the German manufacturer.<\/p>\n

Launched at the Frankfurt Motor Show, the car was brought to California in the United States of America from Switzerland in the 80s.<\/p>\n

Powered by a turbocharged engine, the car features a five-speed manual transmission with a limited-slip differential sending the power to the rear wheels. The fuel-injected two-liter inline-four engine has a Getrag close-ratio transmission system attached to it.<\/p>\n

Talking about its exterior design, the car features wheel arches that are factory fitted, a lip spoiler on the trunk, an air dam made out of fiberglass, and a set of black steel wheels. The finish of the car has been limited to the original “Chamonix” white and a special edition tri-colored ‘Turbo’ livery.<\/p>\n

Some of the interior features include a three-spoke steering wheel, a red instrument cluster with a 240 km\/h speedometer and a VDO tachometer. For a touch of ‘luxury’, the interior is completely upholstered in black vinyl.<\/p>\n

In terms of output, the 2002 Turbo produces 170 HP and 173 lb-ft of torque, more than enough to send that little white rocket from 0-60 mph in just 7 seconds.<\/p>\n

It comes with a tool and a first aid kit, a clean Arizona title, an owner’s book, related literature, and manuals in a binder along with a few service records. What makes the car even more worthy of the aforementioned price is the BMW classic certificate, which is a commodity only a few would like to pass on.<\/p>\n
