THE OVERVIEW
Offered for an appreciating new owner is this rare classic 1973 BMW Euro 3.0CSi E9-chassis coupe!
Finished in "Chamonix" white over blue cloth, this 40+ year-old BLUE LICENSE PLATE CALIFORNIA classic BMW sports a
nice running factory fuel-injected inline six cylinder engine mated to a four speed manual transmission, original
manual sunroof, manual front and electric rear windows, Pioneer am/fm/cassette stereo, 16" ALPINA rep wheels with
near new rubber and reclining bucket seats. The NON-working odometer shows 09,439 miles but the actual miles on
this car cannot be verified. MUCH recent maintenance work has been performed on this car in the last 6 months. NEW
parts include: M5 starter, fuel pump and filter, ALL six injectors rebuilt by Fuel Injection Corp.,spark plugs,
distributor cap, rotor and Bosch coil, Ireland engineering radiator, thermostat, radiator and all coolant hoses,
vacuum lines, front shock tower anti-sway bar, battery and a few other items.
This gorgeous collectible "driver-quality" classic is being sold with clear and clean California title, current
2016 registration and original factory keys!
THE BODY AND TRIM
The exterior of this 1973 CSi is in good to very good 99% rust-free condition overall with excellent shock towers
front and rear and fairly solid underside with some beginning of rust areas on the floor sections. The paint has a
very nice lustrous shine with what looks to be original chrome and trim. It is missing one of the rear under-bumper
pieces and rear badging with other imperfections on the body of this car that include a few isolated corrosion
spots, touched up nicks and other minor blemishes. Inside the rear boot, the tool kit and the elephant skin side
inserts are missing though the original spare tire, jack, rigid cover panels and carpet are in place.
THE INTERIOR
The interior of this E9 coupe is in good overall condition with all working lighted gauges [except the odometer],
good heat with working blower motor, near flawless vinyl dashboard, nicely reupholstered seats front and rear, nice
door panels, original headliner and working manual crank sunroof, cool period-correct stereo and manual front
windows. Imperfections inside this classic cockpit include [but not limited to] deterioration and cracking of the
wood trim at the corners of doors and dash, one rear window inop, light cracking on the original "bus" steering
wheel, worn carpet pieces with one missing section, tattered bottom of the door upholstery bottom. Overall this is
one still very handsome cockpit that needs little to be perfect again!
THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE
This old coupe starts easily, runs fairly well [there is still an occasional sputtering which I am told is due to a
worn TPS unit], drives quite well with light and responsive steering and nice tracking down the road. The
suspension is supple and quiet, the braking is strong and true, the transmission shifts beautifully [recommend new
shifter bushings for an even crisper feel]. With its open cockpit and smooth inline six cylinder engine, piloting
this beautiful coupe on the open road is truly a blissful and attention getting driving experience.

BMW planning smaller Z2 roadster

Sat, 10 May 2014

It's been a few years since we heard about the BMW Z2, a compact, two-seat convertible that would slot in below the aging Z4 (shown above). Now, though, the crew at Car and Driver are back with details on the oft-rumored roadster.
The big shock for enthusiasts on this one is C/D's report that the Z2 will spin its front wheels, rather than its rears. A front-drive roadster is strange enough, but a front-drive BMW roadster? It's apparently true, though, as the new model would share its platform with the front-drive Mini and 2 Series Active Tourer rather than with the racier 228i or M235i coupes.
According to C/D, the rumored Z2 could be powered by a range of three- and four-cylinder, turbocharged engines, although it's more likely to be a four-only affair. Power should range from 160 to 230 ponies, while an M variant could arrive with 300 horsepower (that's a whole lot of power for front-wheel drive...).

2014 BMW 4 Series drops its top, priced from $48,750*

Sat, 12 Oct 2013

BMW will debut its new 2014 4 Series Convertible at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November, and after seeing plenty of spy shots and, most recently, some leaked images, we now have all the official details. To no one's surprise, the 4 Series convertible is, essentially, a topless version of BMW's new-for-2014 4 Series coupe, and will be offered in the United States in the same 428i and 435i guises.
On the base end, that means the 428i Convertible arrives with the company's 2.0-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine, good for 240 horsepower and 255 pound-feet of torque, and available with either rear- or all-wheel drive. BMW says the 428i will sprint to 60 miles per hour in a respectable 6.2 seconds. For folks in need of more thrust, BMW will happily sell you a 435i Convertible, available only with rear-wheel drive, powered by a 3.0-liter, twin-turbocharged inline-six that produces 300 hp and 300 lb-ft of twist. Hitting 60 mph in the 435i will take roughly five and a half seconds with the standard eight-speed auto. Curiously, BMW did not mention anything about a six-speed manual transmission for either model, so looks like this droptop might be an auto-only affair. We've contacted BMW for confirmation, so we'll keep you posted.
Like the 3 Series Convertible it replaces, the 4 Series uses a three-piece folding hardtop configuration, and BMW says that added sound deadening reduces audible wind noise by about two decibels. Folding the automatic roof takes just 20 seconds, and can be done at speeds up to roughly 11 mph. For chilly, top-down driving (something we're big fans of), there are now three-temperature neck warmers for the front seats - just like what Mercedes-Benz offers with its AirScarf system.
