    Bonhams Dec. 11 Auction in the UK: 1974 BMW 3.0/3.5 CSI COUPÉ - RHD (NMNA)

    Interesting as sunroof CSIs don't show up very often. One would think 'presented in extensively restored condition' would garner a little higher Vendor Score than 64/100. That's an F! Maybe it was extensively restored in the early 90's?? Also lack of rear fog light suggests Italian delivery...

    Jeez at least do some detailing if you suddenly have to sell to buy a house.

    New Member- 1974 Mintgrun

    Hal, welcome. Probably the best introductory post ever - or at least I thought it well composed. Mintgrun is an acquired taste, like great bourbon. Personally I like it better on an e9 than a 2002, and you rarely see it on a coupe. Look like you got a nice car for your BaT troubles. Go and...

    BaT Euro delivery 1973 BMW 3.0CSi manual transmission (NMNA)

    I suppose 'euro trim' is referring to the cloth seats, I'm not aware of any specific trim differences between Euro and NA vehicles. But that's why I'm here, to learn what I don't know. First time I've heard of the glove box evaporator/blower thing, maybe not a big deal as AC in WA is not the...

    1970 2800cs ebay (NMNA)

    Probably came from the Okanagan as the 'desert' location. It is dry there, but not like where I live!

    Holy Cow! 507

    BaT had a 2015 LaFerrari that went to $3.125MM but RNM. Don't see this 507 getting there, but with BaT who knows???

    Holy Cow! 507

    Can't make $2MM without the correct steering wheel :p Seriously, with the color and ultra rare hardtop I'm with Andrew,, that this will be RNM - unless there are two bidders that HAVE to have it. I'd like to know who did the restoration, these are specialized, hand-built cars and in my...

    3.3 L engine + 4 speed+ ljet ecu

    Thank heavens he is and the rest of the encyclopedic knowledge that exists here. I can't count the amount of hours I've saved gaining knowledge on this site as opposed to looking it up myself. Now I can spend my time boning up on Porsche M96/7 IMS bearing failures......

    Oh boy, the fun begins.....I will be quizzing you and @HB Chris soon once paint is done and reassembly commences (on my coupe!).....

    73 Euro on BaT

    Happy to see that Mike - your previous car had the best stance of any e9 I've seen. I'm hoping for re-assembly soon, so I'm going to pick your brains on how to match it.

    73 Euro on BaT

    Yeah this one is getting popcorn-worthy over there. @OCCoupe when did you get a SECOND e9????

    73 Euro on BaT

    From what I've been told by those that live in WA, registering a vintage vehicle is pretty painless and is an almost automatic (ha, no pun) process. There is zero possibility of registering and titling this FrankenCoupe in California, in my opinion. But even with all the issues, and if BaT...

    Groundbreaking. Can't wait for the next chapter, like a sequel to a great book.

    BaT 1973 BMW 3.0CSi 3.5L 5-Speed - NMNA

    I've not heard of them, but to be fair my coupe has been in Orange County for a while going through the restoration completion. Once I have it out here I may drop in on them. although with my AAA Premier membership I can flatbed it to Carl at La Jolla, although picking it up will be a bit of...

    BaT 1973 BMW 3.0CSi 3.5L 5-Speed - NMNA

    A sunroof CSi, a rare bird. Looks like a nice one. $39K in 2009 was all the money for any non-CSL coupe, and then some. Quick question for the cognoscenti - there's a B34 3.5 in this car now, and according to my research that gains a whopping 15 horsepower with a Euro B35 - a bit more torque...

    1972 BMW CS 3.0 Automatic in San Diego County- $25,000

    For $10,000 more you can have the 2800CS that Racerex is selling in the same county - which appears to be a smarter buy. But @Markos is correct, its all SWAG until a PPI is done.

    1958 503 coupe

    Seems the Hemmings prices are all over the map. You don't see 328's often up for sale outside an auction, if ever. Both the 503 Cabriolet and Coupe are fantastic.

    1972 BMW CS 3.0 Automatic in San Diego County- $25,000

    NMNA - a lot of rust coming through high up on the car. Lord knows what lurks beneath it. https://sandiego.craigslist.org/nsd/cto/d/vista-1972-bmw-cs-30-automatic/7212955520.html
