1978 BMW 320i Baur From The Mecum AuctionFor Sale! Video!

"1978 BMW 320I BAUR EXTREMELY RARE EURO MODEL. TARGA CABRIOLET!"

Speaking of Baurs resurfacing--- we just posted three from the NY area yesterday---- and here is another one!  The first E21 Baur ever sold (as far as we know) at a Mecum Auction (Houston April 2016) is also back on the block!

This is Baur #251. 

This sold for about $10-12,000 in April at the Mecum Auction.  I have had conflicting reports.. The larger number may include the 'buyer's premium', paid to the auction house, but I am not sure.
Here is where it stands now with 6 days to go:   Current bid:

US $4,051.00

Reserve not met

We will be interested to see how this auction turns out.  It was up once before and failed to meet reserve.
