"Fun car, real head turner"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Car didn't idle, had to drill the stationary nozzle a bit bigger.

Replaced the soft top, don't try to get the windshield out without cutting the rubber around it!!!

General comments?

Restored the car, had to do a lot of welding due to a leaking soft top.

These cars are becoming rare these days, very much fun to drive.

This car is a real head turner, due to its nice green metallic color and lowered suspension (but I should have bought a 325 in stead of a 316!)

Glad to see someone else has a 1985 323 bauer.

Just now picked up a 1985 325se (2.3 liter six) bauer tc, kamei X1 form the original owner.

Understand that these are very rare, even in Europe.

In very good condition, but lots of rotted vacuum, etc. hoses under the hood.

Any chance you have a hose diagram?

My son and I are going to restore it back to OEM if possible.

Engine runs well with a lot of power (no rev limiter)

The 323i TC Baur is the much rarer one. They are a real head turner - nice car to drive.
