1973 Baikal BMW 2002tii sells for $93.5K

[GolfBavaria]

If already posted, my apologies. This was crazy but congratulations to my good friend that sold this. 4 bidders pushed this through the roof. Probably won't look like much in a few years. And mind you this wasn't a charity number like the Clarion car. Which generally pushes the price up more than usual for the charity. Great car.....lots-O-Dough-though.

Looks like Paul at Autokennel was asking $34,990.00 back in 2013, just four years ago.

Congrat's to Mike Pelly. This Tii is heading to Vermont.

Chris, were you involved yourself in the resto on the 93k car? Looks like quite a car!

I think the trend in the market is that the best of the best examples continue to crush it when they come up for sale. A 76 automatic 2002 will forever be worth 10 percent of a roundie tii.

Congrats to Mike.

Stunning car, but that's close to 2002 Turbo price territory.

A 2002 Turbo traded hands in Monterey for $154k, IIRC. German "Youngtimers" are hot, and the BMWs are finally getting the lift the Porsches got a few years ago (and then retreated a bit).

Oh wow, from my untrained color blind eyes they look identical. I do see slight differences like the front reflectors are on Mike's but not on the Autokennel, just thought he added for originality. Both nice cars, that is a big spread regardless between two Similar cars then.

Pelly's is colorado or inka...

The Baikal Tii on BaT is Mike's, he also has Colorado, a Granada 1600 and 1602 Cab plus several coupes. No relation to Auto Kennel. No, I didn't help restore but watched the process along the way.

I spoke to Mike and that was his tii that sold on BAT. Chris is referring to the Autokennel Baikal tii that sold a few years earlier that I thought was the same car. Looks very similar. I guess different car. But that was Pelly's tii that just sold. I know he has no affiliation with Autokennel, I though maybe he bought the one from Paul since it looked so similar a few years back, apparently that is not the case and whoever owns that car, the value just skyrocketed......Great job on the sale Mike! I guess we know who is buying breakfast or El Pollo Loco next time...LOL. Actually I think it is my turn...darnit!
