One of the Final 55 Examples Produced Equipped with Air Conditioning and a 5-Speed Transmission
The BMW 3.0 CSi E9 is widely regarded as one of the most elegant grand touring coupes ever produced by BMW. Combining timeless Paul Bracq styling, advanced engineering and genuine sporting pedigree, the E9 became a defining model for the brand throughout the 1970s and laid the foundation for BMW’s future high-performance GT cars. (BMW E9 Forum)
Introduced as the evolution of the earlier 2800 CS, the 3.0 CSi represented the most refined and desirable road-going version of the E9 range. Equipped with fuel injection and producing 200 horsepower, it offered significantly improved performance while maintaining the comfort and sophistication expected from a luxury German coupe.
Today, the BMW 3.0 CSi is considered one of the most collectible classic BMWs of the era, especially when offered in rare specifications, matching colours and fully restored condition. (BMW Classic)
The example offered here is an exceptionally late-production 1975 BMW 3.0 CSi E9, completed on December 2nd, 1975 as one of the final 55 E9s ever produced.
Finished in its original Polaris Silver over Marineblau interior combination, this highly desirable example was factory equipped with the rare five-speed manual gearbox, one of the most sought-after options among collectors and enthusiasts today.
The car was delivered new through BMW Austria on December 11th, 1975 and remained there until 2022.
Among the most important highlights of this example:
Over the course of its life the BMW remained with only a handful of owners, with the last long-term owner acquiring the car in 1984 before initiating a comprehensive restoration project in 2015.
The restoration was recently completed to an extremely high standard. (Giro Classico Restoration)
The car underwent:
Particular attention was paid to preserving the car’s originality wherever possible. The interior remains largely original and retains many late-production E9-specific details that are rarely found intact today.
The wood trim has been completely restored and the entire electrical system thoroughly refurbished.
Mechanically, the car has undergone a complete restoration to ensure both reliability and correct factory performance. (Giro Classico Restoration)
The original 3003 cc inline-six engine retains its factory pistons, which remain in exceptional condition. Major engine components have been rebuilt or replaced including:
The cylinder head has also been fully rebuilt with new valve seats and valves installed throughout.
Every aspect of the mechanical restoration was carried out with the goal of creating a true turn-key E9 suitable for both long-distance touring and high-level collecting.
Special care was dedicated to the Bosch D-Jetronic fuel injection system, one of the defining technical features of the 3.0 CSi. (Giro Classico Restoration)
The system now benefits from:
Both front and rear suspension assemblies were comprehensively rebuilt, including:
The car is also equipped with a limited-slip differential, greatly enhancing driving dynamics and collector desirability.
Brake cylinders, hoses, seals, master cylinder, clutch hydraulics and the correct late-type brake booster have all been rebuilt to factory specifications.
Second only to the legendary 3.0 CSL in exclusivity and collector status, the 3.0 CSi is now firmly recognised as one of BMW’s most important classic GT cars.
This particular example stands out thanks to:
The rebuilt Getrag 262 five-speed transmission delivers a wonderfully engaging yet refined driving experience, perfectly suited to modern grand touring.
The original air conditioning system has also been fully restored, including:
As with all vehicles offered by Giro Classico, the restoration of this BMW 3.0 CSi is extensively documented.
The car is accompanied by:
· over 400 high-resolution restoration photographs;
· detailed invoices;
· BMW Classic Birth Certificate;
· matching colour and production confirmation;
· original toolkit;
· ownership and service history from new;
· ASI certification;
