Few words & links:
|
The BMW 2500 was introduced as the first of the BMW "New Six" sedans. These sedans were equipped with quite powerful 6 cylinder engines and sporty saloon body, and were very popular following the popularity of "New Class" mid-size sedans. Also the 2500 was the first BMW model to feature a tool kit, and it later became a BMW hallmark.
The BMW 2500 was not available in US and Canadian markets after 1971, and to replace the 2500, the North America got a special version of the BMW 2800 called the Bavaria.
