History of the BMW 3.0 CSi - SSC-623
This BMW 3.0 CSi, chassis no. 22635xx, was ordered on July 25, 1972, by Dr. Ludwig M. from Oberursel through the BMW dealer Friedel & Zervas in Frankfurt, in the rare color Inka (022) with black interior. According to our research, only 11 BMW 3.0 CSis were ever ordered in Inka. Additional options included: front electric windows, a second exterior mirror, radio with automatic antenna, and three-point seat belts. On October 12, 1972, the car was completed and invoiced, and shortly afterwards registered under license plate HG-V 500. Until 1985, Dr. M. carefully kept every service and repair invoice, no matter how minor.
In 2010, Eric Bunte, founder of the legendary German Exclusive in the Netherlands, acquired this exceptional CSi in order to restore it to its original delivery specification and later add it to his private collection. The body was expertly and faithfully restored and repainted in its original color. Due to time and capacity constraints, Scuderia Sportiva Colonia was entrusted with the completion of the car. Current photos testify to this stage. In addition to the original sound-deadening mats, Scuderia installed additional insulation to further reduce noise. The plastic-coated body trim is currently being polished to high gloss.
Please note: the new owner still has the choice of interior and technical configuration. The seats can be upholstered either in original black velour or, on request, in black leather. Gearbox options include either the original restored 4-speed or a 5-speed overdrive transmission. Engine options are either the fully restored original 200 hp unit or a discreet performance upgrade with programmable injection and electronic ignition, delivering around 240 hp. Wheels can be chosen between 14-inch Pedrini with chrome hubcaps or 16-inch Alpina replicas. In short, there are virtually no limits to the individual wishes of the buyer.
In summary, a perfect, as-new BMW 3.0 CSi in one of the rarest, most elegant and sporty color combinations will be built by us according to the specifications of its new owner. After completion, the car must be run in according to factory guidelines. We also provide a one-year warranty, provided all service work is carried out in our workshop.
Résumé
Scuderia Sportiva Colonia has always placed special emphasis on these technically sophisticated coupés. Their stunning shape, superb chassis, excellent brakes, and powerful engine made them the benchmark of the early 1970s. The BMW slogan “Sheer Driving Pleasure” comes alive in the BMW E9 in a unique and unmistakable way. The interior pampers its owner with luxurious materials, comfortable seats with decent lateral support, and VDO round instruments whose elegance is second to none. One car journalist once wrote: “If James Bond had been German, he would have driven a BMW E9 as his company car”—and he would certainly have appreciated the standard power steering of the CSi.
And for those not fully convinced by this particular color or specification: we currently have more than 10 other BMW E9s under restoration, each of which can be completed in the original BMW color of your choice, along with your preferred options. We are happy to prepare an individual offer including option lists for each car on request.
Note
We offer a one-year warranty on all work carried out, provided that all required service is performed by us or one of our selected service partners. The odometer will be reset to 0 km after completion, as this BMW will be starting its “second life.”
This offer is subject to change and prior sale. We provide new TÜV certification and historic registration for Germany, and upon request, a new expert valuation report. For Europe, we arrange closed-trailer transport, and we also assist with container shipping worldwide.
This car is located at the restoration facilities of our sister company Scuderia Sportiva Servizio in Dortmund. In the historic Arnold Jung locomotive hall, you will find a large selection of exciting and sporty classics.
