Description
This 1973 BMW 3. 0CS was purchased new by Playboy founder Hugh Hefner from Zipper BMW of Beverly Hills, California, on March 28, 1973. It reportedly spent time on display at the Celebrity Car Museum in Branson, Missouri, before it was acquired by the selling dealer in 2020. The car is finished in silver over a blue interior, and power comes from a carbureted 3. 0L inline-six mated to a four-speed manual transmission. Modifications include an Alpina steering wheel, shift knob, and wheels. An oil change was performed in October 2020. The bodywork is finished in silver and features chrome trim, bumpers with rubber impact strips, and side marker lights. The 14? Alpina wheels were added in January 2002 and are mounted with three 195/70 Pirelli P4000 Super Touring tires showing 2001 and 2002 date codes, and a single Michelin Energy MX V4 tire showing a 2000 date code. Braking is handled by discs at all four corners.
