1982 BMW 323i Baur

1982 BMW 323i Baur
Memorial Day 2010 First Drive 1982 323i BMW Baur Lapisblau M20 5 speed #4154 of 4595 made. The car was imported to California by Dietel Enterprises. I have since changed the wheels, installed the clear turn signal lenses, and I am in the process of installing a new cabriolet roof. I have to do something about those bumpers, too. :) I love this car! To see one of the reasons why, check my post "Score One For the Good Guys" on 6/26/2011.

Another New Hampshire Baur Targa Spotted By The Pooleman!


UPDATE 4/3/2014:  Look what the intrepid BMW Hunter Scott S. found tonight!
Compare the license plate to the car below!  Small Baur World!!! 
The following comment was attached to this pic:
"I saw this 2002 cabriolet last weekend. New one to me! The owner said that there were only 1800 of them built and none imported to the US. He was driving it to a bike race with his bike on the Thule rack. It was a very nice looking car. I still think I wouldn't put a rack on it or drive it that far, but kudos to him for actually driving it!"  Posted by ctrapeni Here:

Scroll down through the thread........Baurspotting gets a plug!!  :)

Great find, Scott!!!


Thanks to our friend and fellow Baur owner Ed P., aka THE POOLEMAN, for these pics of a new Baur Cabrio Targa in New Hampshire posted in Facebook tonight!

It's a beauty, folks!  

I asked Ed for some details, and here is his response:
"A few weeks ago a customer was in the dealership and we got to to talking and he told me his dad had a Baur 02.  He sent me and a pic via email today.  ........  New Hampshire Baurs #44808 ( my old car ) my currant E30. Rodneys E21 Dave T's 2002 . The white 2002 ( dave ) My black TC2 five known cars in the state + this one makes six. "


Wait a second..... rechecking that math....   :)   .........
New Hampshire Baurs:   1)  #44808 ( Ed's old car now with new owner) ;   2) Ed's  current white E30;  3) Rodneys white  E21;  4)  Dave T's green 2002 Targa;  5) The white 2002 Targa (owned by Dave---- error:  that should be Pete M.);  6) Ed's black TC2.   That makes 6.... and this red Targa now makes 7 Baurs in New Hampshire!!! 

3 Baur Cabrio Targas;
1 E21 TC1;
3 E30 TC2s!

...... and still counting!  

Great work, Ed!
