1974 BMW 2002 Baur Targa Brilliant Blue Exterior / Ferrari Leather Black Interior Exterior Restoration 4 Speeds 1 of 2007 Baur Built Targas A recipient of a Fresh Exterior Restoration in the brilliant Blue, this 4 Speed Targa is truly a rare find. This 1975 BMW 2002 Baur Targa was part of a limited production run of 1963 units, between 1971 and 1975 by BMW factory authorized Karosserie Baur. They were also responsible for models such as the BMW M1 and Porsche 959. A Removable Targa Top rests above the front passenger compartment, behind it a Soft Cabriolet Top folds back to give the rear passengers a peak at the sun. Power comes from its original and efficient 2 Liter Inline 4 cylinder engine and 4 Speed Manual Transmission that has been regularly serviced and maintained. This Car is imported from Germany the speedo meter is in KM and reads only original 139.000 Kilometer = 85.000 Miles. The car has Turbo Karosserie with front and back spoiler. Aluminum Rims and Recaro sport seats retail one Seat 2000 US$. The Interior is Black leather used by Ferrari. It breaks my heart but I have to sell this rare unique Car. This Car was driven on the German Autobahn and knows speed. It handles like a sport car and hugs those mountain curves like a Porsche. If you are a true BMW collector or you just love the 2002 edition this is a must have. Now let us get to the History of the car. This Car is so rare that only 44 of this particular car was build. This is the 33rd Car build from Baur. As you may notice as a BMW collector you will notice the odd VIN # TP 18KW37692XB33. This is not a BMW issued VIN # this VIN was given to Baur from the TUV in Germany. Baur build 44 Cars under the nose from BMW and sold those cars on the side until Baur got caught by BMW. This car was a Roundy before and along the way this car was converted to a Square taillight. Nobody really knows how much this car is worth but I heard numbers from 20,000 US$ all the way up to 100,000 Euros. The Car would be much more worth for sure if the conversion never happened. BWM made 1963 cars and Baur build 44 of those beautiful cars. So the real number is 2007 Car in this style were build. BMW likes to sweep this story under the carpet but it happened. If you are a true BMW collector or you just love the 2002 edition this is a must have. There is no reserve on this car. I hope it will find a good home. Thank you for looking at this rare German beauty
