1974 BMW E9 Coupe

This 1974 BMW 3.0CS was first delivered to Vancouver Auto Ltd. in North Vancouver, British Columbia, and is said to have remained with the previous owner for over 30 years prior to being acquired by the selling dealer in 2023. The car is finished in brown over tan leather upholstery and is powered by a 3.0-liter inline-six paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Equipment includes 14″ alloy wheels, quad headlights, fog lights, dual side mirrors, impact bumpers, air conditioning, a Blaupunkt AM/FM cassette stereo, a rear window defroster, and power windows. This E9 coupe is offered by the selling dealer in Canada with manufacturer’s literature, service records, a tool kit, and British Columbia registration that lists the car as a 1973 model year. Finished from the factory in Sienna Brown Metallic, the car is believed to have been repainted under prior ownership. Exterior details include quad headlights, fog lights, bright window trim, fender vents, chrome-accented impact bumpers, and roundels mounted on the C-pillars. The selling dealer states that the sunroof is inoperable. Various paint chips and dings are shown in the gallery below. Silver 14″ alloy wheels wear BMW-branded center caps and are mounted with 195/70 Toyo Extensa A/S II tires that were fitted in preparation for the sale. The car is equipped with independent suspension, and braking is handled by power-assisted discs at all four corners. The cabin features front bucket seats and bolstered rear seats trimmed in tan leather along with aluminum trim that accents the color-coordinated dashboard, center console, and door panels. Appointments include air conditioning, a rear window defroster, power windows, carpeted floor mats, and a Blaupunkt AM/FM cassette stereo. The selling dealer states that the front windows are slow to roll up and down, and that the rear windows are sealed and are inoperable. The four-spoke steering wheel fronts VDO instrumentation that consists of a 150-mph speedometer, a tachometer, an analog clock, and a combination gauge for fuel level and coolant temperature. The five-digit mechanical odometer shows 95k miles, approximately 200 of which were added under current ownership. The 3.0-liter M30 inline-six is equipped with dual Zenith carburetors and produced 178 horsepower and 188 lb-ft of torque when new. An oil change was performed in preparation for the sale. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission. Additional underside photos are provided in the gallery below. Manufacturer’s literature, service records, and a tool kit are included in the sale. The car does not have a title, as it is located in a country that does not issue titles. It is being sold on its registration. Filed under: e9
