This 1972 BMW 3.0CS is finished in Verona Red over black leather and is powered by a 3.0-liter inline-six equipped with dual Weber carburetors. A five-speed manual transmission was installed in place of the factory automatic during previous ownership, and additional features include a Blaupunkt cassette radio, an electric sunroof, air conditioning, power windows, four-wheel disc brakes, and 16” Alpina wheels. The car was acquired by the seller approximately five years ago, and a repaint was subsequently carried out.
The car was finished from the factory in Verona Red (24) and was repainted in 2018 by Perfect Reflections of Hayward, California after the car backed into a wall. Body work included straightening the rear panel, and both rear quarter panels, as well as installing a replacement trunk lid, rear bumper, windshield, rocker panels, front and rear window seals, and taillights.
Staggered-width 16” Alpina wheels were installed during current ownership and are mounted with Continental Extreme Contact tires that show 2014 date codes and are sized 205/55 up front and 225/50 out back. Stopping power is provided by four-wheel discs, and the removed wheels, tires, and hubcaps will accompany the vehicle.
The seats are trimmed in black leather, and salt-and-pepper loop carpets are protected by Coco floor mats. Woodgrain trim accents the matching dash and door panels, and shoulder belts are fitted for front occupants. Amenities consist of an electric sunroof, a Blaupunkt cassette stereo, power windows, and air conditioning, which has reportedly been fitted with a modern compressor.
A three-spoke steering wheel frames VDO instrumentation including a 150-mph speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer, analog clock, and a combination gauge for fuel level and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows just under 49k miles.
The 3.0-liter inline-six features an aftermarket stainless-steel exhaust system along with dual Weber carburetors. A five-speed manual transmission was installed during previous ownership. Work in November 2019 included an oil change along with a replacement oil pan gasket and engine mounts.
