Baur has been making BMW Convertibles since the 1930s, the TC4 however, might just be their weirdest creation. When the E36 arrived therefore and the convertible version was developed relatively quickly (in fact, BMW kept the E30 Convertible on sale parallel to the rest of the E36 range, so a convertible was always on offer), Baur was struggling to find demand for a 'Baur conversion'.Baur's solution seems to have been the TC4, a full four-door convertible. A bodyshape that had not been seen in Europe for decades and had been abandoned even by the Americans, such was the difficulty of creating a safe and rigid body.
