BMW 2002 Touring
The BMW 2002 Coupe is an iconic model that built the marque's reputation, particularly in the US. A model that wasn't seen Stateside was the 2002 Touring.
The Touring was released in 1971, through to 1974, so receiving the newer BMW engines available at this time. The car is notionally a 3-door hatchback, though the intent was perhaps more of a Sport Break (shooting brake).
There was not a similar car in the BMW lineup until the late mid 1990s, when a version of the E36 BMW 3-Series was configured much in this manner. By this time though, the appellation 'Touring' had been shifted to the 5-door wagon form of the 3 and 5-series models.
