Here is another one that I stumbled across today: "1970 BMW 1602 convertible".
I found it on this website, with no further information available:

So, while I certainly appreciate the post, I do wish that these sites would give us more info on the cars.
This does appear to be a legit Baur Voll Cabrio, in pretty good shape. Nice Euro turn signals, but..... what is with those whitewalls??? I am also not a fan of the chrome wheel well trim. Besides the fact that it is a little gaudy, here in the snow belt Northeast, those trim pieces are known to trap moisture and hasten the damage from the 'tin worm'.
But then again, 'de gustibus non disputandum est" as we used to say in Latin class. I know of two translations for that: the literal translation, and the Mark Twain translation.
The literal translation is:
"In matters of taste, there is no argument."
Twain has tweaked that a bit, in his own inimitable style:
"There is no accounting for taste."
As a Connecticut Yankee, it probably isn't hard to figure out which translation I prefer. ;)
Anyway, does anyone have any info on that Baur Voll Cabrio? It kinda looks like California to me... but who knows? All info is welcome!
