Some cars transcend the definition of a classic—they embody an era when elegant design, refined engineering and engaging driving dynamics came together in perfect harmony. This 1973 BMW 3.0 CS is a fine example of that philosophy. Finished in elegant Light Blue Metallic over a Dark Blue interior, this beautiful E9 Coupé combines timeless styling with the unmistakable character for which BMW’s grand touring coupés have become renowned.

Equipped with the highly desirable manual gearbox, the car delivers the engaging driving experience that perfectly complements BMW’s legendary straight-six engine. Presented in exceptionally well-preserved condition, this 3.0 CS remains largely original and has benefited from a high-quality restoration in the past, carefully preserving its authentic character and originality.

Over recent years, the car has been successfully campaigned in a number of historic touring and regularity rally events. To support this purpose, it has been fitted with period-style rally equipment, making it immediately suitable for classic rally participation while remaining equally enjoyable as an elegant grand tourer for relaxed road trips and classic car gatherings.

An Icon of BMW History

Introduced in the late 1960s, the BMW E9 Coupé was developed by Karmann on the platform of BMW’s successful Neue Klasse saloons. Its graceful proportions, slim pillars and distinctive Hofmeister kink have made it one of the most admired BMW designs ever produced.

Power comes from BMW’s celebrated M30 inline six-cylinder engine, renowned for its smooth power delivery, durability and unmistakable soundtrack. Displacing 2,986 cc, the engine produces approximately 180 horsepower, providing effortless performance that perfectly suits the car’s grand touring character. Combined with the manual transmission, the driving experience remains engaging, refined and remarkably modern, even by today’s standards.

The E9 also served as the foundation for the legendary BMW 3.0 CSL, whose success in the European Touring Car Championship helped establish BMW’s enduring motorsport reputation. As such, the 3.0 CS represents an important chapter in the marque’s history, combining elegance, engineering excellence and genuine sporting pedigree.
