1973 BMW 3.0 CSL
VIN: 2275045

Produced in September of 1972, this 3.0 CSL was originally an Italian delivery car, and the 45th of 429 LHD 3.0 Injection cars produced by BMW. It features the rare City Package, which was offered as an option on all 3.0 CSL models, but rarely fitted to left-hand drive cars.

The City Package was designed to make the 3.0 CSL more usable as a daily driver, and while this car still retains the trademark aluminum hood and trunk lid, the package added: power steering, anti-roll bars, standard front and rear bumpers, standard windshield, standard side glass, rear-window defroster, chassis undercoating, interior hood release, additional sound deadening, retractable rear side windows (power-operated), tool kit on inner trunk lid, trunk lock, and velour carpeting.

2275045 was purchased from its original Italian owner, Livia Bettini, and imported to Los Angeles in 1994. The last owner, Glenn Mueller of Encinitas, CA would obtain the CSL in 2004.
