Vehicle Description
This 1973 BMW 3.0 CS is one of 450 cars built for the 1973
production year. Often referred to as the E9, this CS is a sunroof
coupe model powered by a 3.0-liter inline-6 engine mated to a
4-speed manual transmission. The car rides on factory alloy wheels,
and the interior features a Nardi wood steering wheel with a BMW
horn button. All modifications are said to be upgraded based on
need, such as shocks and tires. The original radio works, as does
the clock. Records show that most work has been performed by Bullet
Performance in Costa Mesa and Rubens Imports in Dana Point, CA. The
BMW has receipts totaling over $12,000 from 2019 to date. This BMW
was featured on the cover of Road & Track magazine in October 1984
when the magazine did an article on the best used cars available.
The car has had one refinish and the U.S. DOT front side markers
were deleted. The car is currently finished in BMW Dark Blue (code
#364). The sunroof motors were replaced, and a new headliner has
been installed. Additionally, all seat leather was replaced in a
Honey Tan color that matched the original; there is also NOS
carpeting and recently refurbished interior wood.
