1973 BMW 3.0 CSI

A very rare Euro-spec CSI for restoration. This is a grey-market E9 first delivered to Verona, Italy in 1973. Brought to California in the late 70’s and has a B.A.R. sticker. I have used this car as a daily driver since 2005.

Features smaller, European only, chrome bumpers and metric gauges. Baikel blue with black and tan cloth interior, now covered with black cloth covers. Bosch D-Jetronic fuel injection.

Engine has been modified with a slightly later M30 3.5 liter block (@ 210 hp, considerably more power than the original 177 hp) while retaining it’s original cylinder head and induction gear. Tubular exhaust header. 3 piece 16” alloy rims are vintage mid 70’s Hardy & Beck after market.

All glass in good shape. All four window motors work. Instruments and air controls are in German. Vintage Blaupunkt radio.

Isolated areas of rust, non-structural (see photos). Has been sitting for over a year and is currently not running. (possibly fuel injection glitch).

Look at the photos, ask questions, come and see it! 100 miles north of Los Angeles. More photos available.

Car is sold as is - no warranty expressed or implied. Clean title. Payment of $2,000 due within 24 hrs of auction. Balance due before delivery.
