The Appeal
Introduced in 1971, and designed by Wilhelm Hofmeister and Giovanni Michelotti, the 3.0 CSI was a direct replacement for the 2800 - and still boasted those clean lines, sporty profile, and the characteristic double kidney grille, contributing to its timeless aesthetic, while offering Bosch D-Jetronic electronic fuel injection for the first time.
This specific BMW 3.0 CSI, painted in classic '85 Chamonix' white, retains its original paint and exudes authenticity. The interior features original blue upholstered bucket seats and a well-preserved dashboard, reflecting BMW's commitment to luxury and sportiness.
With its original European specifications and Dutch registration, this BMW 3.0 CSI is not only a collector's item but will also make a distinctly practical, capable retro daily driver. Whether for shows or weekend drives, this car offers a balance between historical authenticity and drivability.
