and Alex von Falkenhausen, designer of the M10 engine, each had a
two�liter engine installed in a 1600-2 for their respective
personal use. When they realized they had both made the same
modification to their own cars, they prepared a joint proposal to
BMW's board to manufacture a two�liter version of the 1600-2. At
the same time, American importer Max Hoffman�was asking BMW for a
sporting version of the 02 series that could be sold in the United
States. This year, BMW celebrates its 100th anniversary. BMW has a
long successful history both in Europe and the United States. This
