THIS BEAUTIFUL CLASSIC BMW COUPE HAS ONLY TEST MILES SINCE RESTORATION! It has all new paint, leather, carpets, re-veneered wood, tires, chrome, door and windshield seals, headliner, iPod compatible stereo sound system, and AC upgraded to 134a. Today this BMW is a rare unmolested CSA with its original motor and automatic transmission. It is for the person who loves its class, wants to drive it often, needs to drive in traffic and doesn't want to shift all the time. The CS has been called the most beautiful coupe BMW ever built! So if you love this classic style and want an e9 in your garage, here is one of the best you will find.
For the buyer wanting a foundation on which to perform an upgrade such as with an injected 6 series motor or e24 and 5 speed transmission, this coupe is a great place to start. The upgrade definitely increases the value. A CSA restoration done a couple of years ago with a 3.5 conversion and 5 speed sold recently on BAT for $70k. With fresh restorations and conversions these BMWs are going for $100k and more. I've attached a photo that shows a 3.5 we're installing in a 73 Fjord Blue CSi. Also included is a photo of an e24 power plant, considered the best upgrade you can put in a CS.
Everybody has different needs and things they would like to do. I happen to love these cars - bought a 2800 CSA in the late 70s, used it as a daily driver and parked it when it had over 300K miles. The car shown here doesn't need to be a garage queen either. Regardless of your mission you are not just buying a car, you are also making an investment. According to Hemmings and Bloomberg these cars are appreciating in value very quickly now that Porsche 911 values have gone out of sight! We have this car on consignment from the client we restored it for. We will of course assist with shipping. Thanks for looking.
