The BMW 3.0 CS, or the E9 as they are known, were produced from 1968 to 1975 and were based on the based on the 2000 C/CS four-cylinder coupés. They were then enlarged to fit the larger inline M30 six-cylinder engine. The beautiful E9 bodywork was built by Karmann and had a very successful racing career racing in the European Touring Car and Deutsche Rennsport Meisterschaft racing series.
This 1973 BMW 3.0 CS has been in Southern California its entire life, being orignally purchased at Zipper BMW in Beverly Hills. Finished in Polaris Silver over a navy blue leather interior and was optioned with a factory sunroof and air conditioning. The car has its numbers-matching 3.0-liter M30 inline-six and a Getrag 265 5-speed manual gearbox was added along with a upgraded AC compressor and 38mm EMPI carburetors. The car had a complete windows out repaint in the mid 1990’s which still looks amazing. At that time the Getrag transmission swap was done. The interior is mostly original although the front seats have been recovered, the dashboard refurbished and new walnut wood trim installed. There is a aftermarket Alpine bluetooth enabled radio which was also installed.
In June 2019, the car earned 1st place in its class at the Huntington Beach Concours d’Elegance. This E9 is now offered with lots of paperwork including the factory manuals, service records back to the 1970s, and a clean California title.
These cars are hot right now and recent sales keeping pushing the envelope of pricing. Don’t miss out on this beautiful car.

Still no firm deal on the car and Seller wants to make a deal. If you have interest in a very nice above driver quality E9 take a closer look at this car.
Can’t believe that this is still available. It is truly one of the most timeless designs BMW has ever made. Wish I could be a buyer for it today but……….Step up folks these will continue to go up in value and this is a great example. I would change out the wheels IMO.
Wish I could buy this one too. What a beautiful car and best of luck in the auction.
Seems like the Seller has come down on the potential BIN, still looking.
One of my all time favorite cars. The most sexy lines other than a GW or XK..glwta
Not a buyer for this but what a beautiful example.
Love this car and still trying to justify. I inspected it a few weeks back and looks right in all critical areas. I would change the wheels to Alpinas and call it a day.
I just love this car and hopefully this time around I will get it!!!!
The buyer did not perform so we are re-listing for the Seller. Please bid only if you are going to buy. Car is available for inspections in Torrance CA. This car will not disappoint.
Reserve and BIN has been lowered to make a deal. If interested please reach out.
Someone is going to get a great car. Wish I could join in the fun………….
Did not get the M1 so I might be bidding on this one. These have the most beautiful lines.
The car is still available and the Seller is motivated to make a deal. Please contact us if you have any interest.
If anyone wants to view the car we are located in Torrance. This car will not disappoint.
Can’t resist this one. What an amazing looking car!!!!!
In my experience it does not hurt the value and some times adds value if it makes it better. In this case the 5 speed manual might be the example of adding value. Much better driving experience than the auto.
One of the most beautiful coupes ever made.
Wow, amazing looking car. Does it hurt the value by the tranny change?
Beautiful car. I have always loved the lines, especially the rear window curves.
