Between 1968 and 1975, BMW produced a range of E9 coupes based on the BMW 2000 C / 2000 CS with a Karmann body. The first of the E9 coupés was the 2800 CS model, which was replaced by the 3.0 CS in 1971. One of them, a 1973 BMW 3.0CS is for sale.

The BMW 3.0CS is powered by a 3.0-liter M30 inline-six with dual carburetors, paired with a retrofitted five-speed manual transmission that sends power to the rear wheels.

The car is finished in a light shade of blue and is in good condition. It is equipped with a sliding steel sunroof, an aftermarket front air dam, dual side mirrors, and front fender vents. In preparation for the sale, the brakes were serviced, dry ice cleaning the underside and engine bay, and replacing the control arms, sway bar end link bushings, axle boots, and spark plug wires. It is mounted on 16″ Alpina-style wheels wrapped in 205/55 front and 225/50 rear Pirelli tires.

Inside, the front and rear seats are trimmed in tan leather that also covers the door panels. In front of the driver is a Nardi three-spoke steering wheel and a five-digit odometer showing 76,112 miles. Additional equipment includes wood trim on the dashboard and door tops, a Pioneer CD stereo, power-operated windows, a heated rear window, a wood shift knob, and air conditioning.

The car comes with spare parts and a clean California title.

The auction ends on April 2 and the highest bid at the time of writing was USD $44,444.
