STREET FIND: BMW 2002 (Roundie)
The 2002 is a car that I've always been surrounded by throughout my life. My dad had one when I was 13 and he always took us to the 2002 meet ups. It wasn't till I started to learn more about vintage cars that my appreciation for it began. Such a simple shape but very calculated in its form. I think that theres merit in restraint when it comes to design. The trend for todays marketing is to clamp your head still and force you to look at something, and demand that you like it. The appeal of older designs is that they are simpler and grow on you over time. They are subtle and lean. They are built with character but leave room for you to grow with it and inevitably add your character to it as you own it.
