Resurrection of BMW branded 'tii'
Between 1968 and 1976, the Bavarian manufacturer BMW was a huge success with its models 2002 compact sports category. At the time they were regarded as the most exciting cars to drive, and all categories combined. In addition, they were offered at a very reasonable price, allowing more people to afford a BM, including soil Europeen, even in America. But as the cars are never strong enough for some, BMW has responded positively to their expectations by presenting a version VITAMINEE, very original 2002tii.
These three letters of nobility mean 'International Touring Injection. Thus, the small BMW 2002tii had the same engine that was found in the other versions, one indestructible four-cylinder 1990 cc, the power of departing stood at 120 horsepower, or 130 in the 'tii' release. But this or upscale version differed most from the other models, it is by his behavior much more dynamic statement. In other words, it was for the time, a small M3, especially with the release in 1973 of the first BM car driven by a turbocharged, 2002 Turbo with 170 horses.
While we thought this belle epoque BMW sports 'tii' was thing of the past, here the latter, unveiled in Tokyo, the Concept 1 Series tii-designed around the very seductive section 135i 2008.
This concept is much more than just a facelift brings a series of model, but rather a harbinger project back at BMW, sports labeled versions 'tii' and that will be inserted between the regular models and lightning M3, if we take the example of BM serie3.
Normally, the First BMW be scratched 'tii', will be models of Serie3 to be reviewed and corrected for 2010 as a model 2011. Will follow the BM Serie1 of the second generation. Nobody can now say, if the other ranges of the Bavarian brand, they also offer versions' tii.
Unlike BMW 2002tii years of '60 and '70, the silhouedtte knew how to make discrete, future BM 'tii' will have a body kit consists of skirts, deflectors and distinctive logos. Their engine will offer more power, but less than that of the version 'M'. It goes without saying that their geometry will be more elaborate, including, among others, a direction and a suspension firmed, not to mention the contribution of wheels and wider tires.
