Here's some more pics, but I can't see to get Photobucket to work. For some reason it comes back as being too large.

Oh hell yes. Fantastic! An MT2 IX!! Baur! In the snow and desert! Here they are inline




Please post higher resolution if have them - they will look even better!

if you post them to a web service you can use the pic icon in the toolbar to paste the web address of each pic. I saved yours to my Dropbox

So here we go, I hope this works. Here are pictures that I took during our various trips. One is here at home in the Swiss Alps, and the other was are Honeymoon trip to southern Tunisia. (back when it was safe)
I can't wait for the weather to warm up again to get it back on the road.

Hi guys,
This seems like the best thread to introduce myself. My name is Kevin and I am a very lucky owner of a 325ix Baur. I have to say that these cars are really awesome and that it is definitely one of the most fun cars I have. It’s not super fast nor does it corner as well as some of the other cars we have, but it’s just a blast to drive. Not to mention that Baur made the best E30 convertibles. As beautiful as the full convertibles are, the Baur is the better car. Drop the rear, and leave the targa top in while enjoying the breeze…
We took it to the Sahara back in 2008. 6000 km and it didn’t miss a beat.

If everything goes well, I’ll have my car at Baur Club Stand at the Retro Classics in Stuttgart in two weeks. Still a few small details to get sorted out.
I need to figure out how to post some pictures here.

@flyboyx
Do you still have the lachs/cardinal 88 325ix coupe? Finally scored one of those this past fall.

i do. it has been relegated to mostly a parts car because it has some rust behind the front wheel wells. i have a diamondschwartz/natur 88 manual that i have been restoring as i have time. i think i am going to switch out the interior to schwartz.

I am not 100% sure? I was told in the past Baur would reinforce the body on frame rail next to doors.

you can. just buy a coupe ix and then buy my baur roof i harvested out of a junk yard a couple years ago.

presto! instant baur ix.

i bought the roof with the intention of actually building this very car one day. i didn't actually know the company built such a thing.

here is a link to my original for sale thread. i still have it. at some point, i decided not to sell, then sell, then not sell. i guess i probably won't do anything with it any time soon.

I'd pay dumb amounts of money to have a baur ix

I have a friend in Virginia that has a 1985 320i Baur. I actually performed the rear disk conversion on the car before he shipped it home.
