2000ti & tilux - 1966 to 1970
In 1966 BMW introduced the 2000ti & 2000 tilux. With an increased compression ratio of 9.3:1 and dual side draft Solex 40 PHH carburetors these models produced 120hp and had a top speed of 111 mph. Intended as an upscale version of the 1800ti, the 2000ti featured distinct wide taillights, more exterior trim, and unique rectangular headlights. The American market 2000ti sedans could not have the rectangular headlights due to government regulations. The more luxurious 2000tilux featured the sporty ti engine, a wood dashboard, and optional leather seats. In a 1967 test, Road & Track felt that the 2000 sedan was “the best performing 2-liter sedan in today’s market and the best handling and best riding as well.”
