Thanks to Ron Perry for the heads up on this 1985 323i Baur on ebay located in Brooklyn NY. It has PA plates.
We posted this Baur last month when it appeared on Craigs list, spotted by our friend, Erik M. *See link below.
Caveat Emptor: It should be noted that the Craigs list ad very honestly shows pics of some rust areas. that are not disclosed in this ebay listing, for some reason. In the interest of Full Disclosure, I would hope that the seller will be more forthcoming about this.
Current bid:
