It's the one BMW restored for him from their classic division (I think they put an auto in it). There was a press release on it a year or two ago.
Name of the gentleman from Munchen is unknown. That 1972 3,0 CSi actually underwent a conversion to an automatic!

I definitely need a beer to read this, from the NYT article:
“If we’re talking top-to-bottom CS restoration, with original switches, fresh surfaces, paint, the whole nine yards, then you’re talking up to six figures,” said Chris Keefer, owner of La Jolla Independent BMW Service in Southern California. “Unfortunately, after all that, the car will still only be worth about $40,000.”

But that NYT article was four years ago, a lot has changed.
