i recently acquired this great baur from a forum member, in trade for my M30 swapped E30 vert. after my vert was featured on bringatrailer.com i started getting bombarded with inquires, and it freaked me out. i just wanted it to be a simple sale to a bmw enthusiast, but i had every tirekicker from portland maine to portland oregon, asking every possible question that i didnt have time to respond to.. Josh hit me up about a trade, and i took the car off the market... for this little beauty, and for some sanity.
i got this
for this...
he kept his wheels from the baur, and i kept my wheels from the vert. (thats whats on the baur now)
anyway...
i think we came out of the deal pretty even, and we're both happy.
BUT, i need to inject some funds into a few projects with my business, and all of my cars are being sold to finance the stuff for work.
so... in addition to my E28 euro, and my E30/S52, this baby is now up for grabs.
in terms of baurs, in my opinion, this is the most attractive of the lot.
triple black... 323, 5sp, true euro car, no rust, great interior, some hartge upgrades, BBS airdam, 3.90 lsd, etc...
actually, here's Josh's description and link to pics..
Car is a rust free triple black cali car. Euro bumpers,bbs spoiler,some hartge items,header,cam,true dual exhaust.. Newer rear soft top with cover.. h&r springs,bilstien sports, ST swaybars, Hartge front strut bar, TEP rear bar with battery relocate. Front recaro's recently recovered in german vinyl. Perfect back seat. 126k original miles, very strong motor, great compression, 5-speed with zero syncro issues, 3.90 LSD. 15'x7' Rota rb's new with falken tires. Tires and wheels have about 50mi. on them.. Car has been a great reliable driver and a ton of fun. The body has a few small dings,scratches, etc. but is completly rust free..

the only thing thats changed are the wheels, and the location of the car.. .
it's now sitting in my garage in portland oregon, awaiting a new home.
asking price is 6k.

That is one beauty of a car. I had a very romantic evening with my wife after we saw those pics last night...
Thanks Buddy
Tbd
LMAO
What about the e28 euro?
I am certain the river of drool emanating from my place has made it over to your house by now. Good luck with the sale.
it's still for sale.

thanks, all, for the comments... more pics to come.
Gorgeous e28.. Thanks for the pictures. That is exactly the e28 I would want, but can't afford right now. I find local (east coast) 535is' that are nice enough and in my price range, but once the euro treatment is done along with some tasteful mods and pristine maintenance, the price seems to skyrocket and spiral away from me.
Good luck with the sales. If you still have the e28 in say, 6 months or so I might be in a better position to begin to make an offer.
Again...gorgeous 5 series.
**** the Baur! That e28 is PURE SEXY.
THE hottest e28 I've EVER seen, and my neighbor had a cherry M5 e28.
WOW! If I had $10k to spare, that euro 5er would be M I N E, now.
(Dizzy. Must ignore 0.9% 2-year offer from Mastercard. Oh the temptation of 0.9pct on that Euro e28 for 24 months. OMG. NOOOO.)
Do you accept paypal?

EDIT: When you mention it wasn't quite as nice as the old owner told you when you got it, what upgrades did you need to do to get it in such shape? That 5er looks almost showroom-clean from the photographs.

that's nice looking baur man...best i've seen.
(most) Women are sexy, cars are not.
'OOooh that's sexy....Ooooh that's pure sex right there....' You call some guy's car 'sexy' around here, and you may have to crawl away with a black eye or a busted nose. But hey, call it what you want.

sober your enthusiasm with the thought of that 0.9% turning into 30% one day....
yes.. i do accept paypal.
and, the list of repairs/upgrades is kinda long.
long story short, the seller was a damn liar...
i fixed the BS, and added a bunch of aftermarket stuff.
if it gets to the point where we're seriously talking about a change in ownership, i'll be glad to run down the full story of who what why when and for how much.
thanks for the comments, folks...
now someone buy this sweet little e21.
My WIFE is sexy (though I rarely brag about that), and my CARS are sexy.
And that 5er is DAMN SEXY.
I'm Italian. It's in my blood to love cars.
Lol. I'm also 6', 2", 355 lbs. (hence the screen-name), and played football for almost 10 yrs. Come TRY to give me a black eye for calling a car sexy. I actually do not think that this forum is the place for threats, buddy. You're a bit off-base, IMO. If someone wishes to resort to violence for an obvious compliment, they better pick a smaller target than yours truly.
OP: Sorry to crap in your Baur thread, man, I just meant you a compliment. SWEET 5er.

Exactly...lol. -b

i think dude was just busting balls... not actually threatening.
thanks tho!!
lol...yeah, was just busting balls...
here's what I found in the urban dictionary though...
SEXY
'Supposed to mean sexually attractive, however recently it has become a word of ambiguous meaning that morons use when unable to think of a better adjective for something they like.
Woooaaahh!!!! See that PSP? That is sexy!'

Yeah, I figured it might just be ribbing.
Anyway, OP: do you have any more pictures of that 5er interior?
Please PM me, and send me some snaps.
My father has voiced interest in the car, and I think he'd like to see a roll of shots.
(He's a bigger car nut than me!)

A romantic evening with the wife actually led to me buying my baur, it turned out about a week after she said yes to me buying it (and I bought it right away), we found out she was pregnant with our son (who turns 3 on saturday) I figure the hormone imbalance of her being pregnant led to the momentary slip in her "no" defense grid and a "yes" came out instead....
good luck with the sale, I wish I could own 2 baurs, but I can only drive the one I have a few months out of the year already lol...
The Frozen Baur (AKA The Frozen Ground) now on Netflix (John Cussack is driving the Omega behind the Baur)
