This looks like a good deal. A Mass. resident so rust may be an issue. But looks awfully nice for $10,000. Original color?

Agreed. Low miles, some rust, but looks like a decent car. I wonder what the underside looks like.

Here is a '73 Bavaria in Hacienda Heights, CA (I saw this car at the SoCal BMW show in Van Nuys @ Woodley Park):
And here is an interesting '75 Bavaria 3.0si in La Habra, CA:
This second vehicle has a Nevada plate - hopefully minimal rust.
2024/06/21: Both of these vehicles are marked SOLD.

Just as I decided I should look into another car, I see the '75 3.0si is "sold".
Wow that Hacienda heights one is a lot of car for 15k - drive the hell out of that one.

74 Bavaria in Denver. A little rough around the edges but runs: https://www.facebook.com/share/ffMJgr2YX1V5Z68G/ NMNA

This red Bavaria in Denver seems to be a '72 or '73. I see the 2nd generation taillights, but the bumpers appear to be euro style, not the '74 US bumper. VIN is not mentioned on the listing, which would make identification much easier.
And drive over 865k miles. How would one know with a 5-digit odometer?

The '73 Automatic Bavaria in Denver has dropped to $8k asking from $11.5k.
I've seen this '72 Bavaria in the San Diego / El Cajon area for quite some time. Price has now dropped to $18k:

Asking $5,500 when I looked at 5:30 Pacific time. Would be long gone if it had anther pedal.

I would say he is willing to deal at this point. Pretty tempting at that price.

Here's an interesting 2-for-1 deal in Davis, CA. A running '74 and non-running '73 for $4k total:
Edit: I had this sense of deja vu, as if I'd seen one of these cars. Last year at the SoCal Vintage BMW show in Van Nuys..
I remember meeting this older gentlemen who talked about "The Bavaria Rescue Project." I seem to recall he drove a
malaga-colored Bavaria with roof racks on it.
