This is an amazing color for a vintage BMW, and while I'm not much of a fan pin striping/racing stripes, I can forgive the use here. I would really like to have seen exactly what the entirety of the vehicle looks like.
The E9 was an incredibly successful platform, especially in motorsports. The 3.0 CSL was especially prized for its racing pedigree and its design helped establish BMW's reputation as a sporty car manufacturer. Out of the over 30,000 E9s built a mere 1,265 were 3.0 CSLs, 500 of which were RHD.
Post your E9s in the comments. Let's get some rotating wallpapers of wonderful!
