1971 BMW 2800 CS Coupe Correct Sahara Beige exterior
1971 BMW 2800CS Coupe
• Final model year for 2800CS
• Seldom-seen: one of only 183 examples of the E9 2800CS models exported to the US 1971; one of only 641 2800CS models imported here between 1969 and 1971
• 2.8L straight six-cylinder engine with dual Weber carburetors (code M30B28V)
• Rarely ordered three-speed automatic transmission and 3.54 gearing
• Correct Sahara Beige exterior with tobacco interior and walnut wood trim
• Power front/rear windows and air conditioning
• Newer Alpina style 16” wheels
Among the first of BMW’s grand touring coupes, the 2800CS was one of the forerunners of the company’s The Ultimate Driving Machine advertising tagline. This seldom-seen example is one of 183 made for export to the US during its final model year, 1971, and one of 641 2800CS models brought here between 1969 and 1971.
Fifty years on and it’s here at MotoeXotica Classic Cars. Made in BMW’s factory in Munich, West Germany, the car has had at least one respray in the original Sahara Beige. The paint and trim are in overall very good order but at close range, one can find some minor blemishes. The body is straight, the car’s chrome wraparound bumpers fit tightly to the body and come with overriders. The engine bay is extremely tidy while the cargo area is good shape.
With its flat beltline and slim roof pillars, the car’s greenhouse feels light and airy and driver visibility is not hampered to any quarter.
This BMW rolls on Michelin Alpin radials, size 205/55ZR16 at all four corners and each one is mounted on newer Aplina style wheels. The wheels are in excellent condition while the tires are in very good shape.
Under that forward-hinged hood is a rebuilt 2.8L inline six-cylinder engine with dual Weber carburetors (code M30B28V). The engine was reportedly rebuilt sometime prior to May 2013. Backing up this motor is a three-speed automatic transmission (most of the E9s came with a four-speed manual) and a 3.54:1 rear end. A new heater core installed prior to May 2013 and the car is equpeemd with air conditioning but is inoperable.
