Hi from an italian CSL owner

[Lorenzo]

After reading many interesting threads I finally introduce myself in this nice community.
My name is Lorenzo, I live in Bologna and I'm an eager classic car and automobilia fan. I own a little collection of classics, mainly Porsche, but love also some BMW youngtimers. The CSL is my favourite and I'm lucky to own two carbs cars. As You know Italy was one of the strongest market for CSL and I was lucky to find quite recently these two italian cars, almost in preserved original conditions.
I will add some pics of the cars.
Last weekend I was at the italian classic car event Coppa d'Oro delle Dolomiti, starting in Cortina. I drove the Colorado and everything worked fine. Here some images.

sorry if this is a stupid question - are those front bumpers stock? or custom additions?

Yes I'm afraid that is a stupid question in E9 forum!



I'm jocking, no problem :mrgreen: and yes, they are totally original lightweight bumper/spoiler.

any consensus-

on how many of the first lightweights are left? Even the original steering wheel. Very nice Lorenzo- now which orange do like the most?

 

[pmansson]

Stunning....
does the Inka have the later style front grille, with 4 rather than 5 flutes on each side, plus a thicker frame....??

 

[Lorenzo]

Thanks Yannick and Sal, colorado is my favourite orange. But I'm not so sure....

mmmmmhhh I must check! I'm pretty sure the Inka's front grille is new from Walloth & Nesch. Don't remember if I changed on the colorado, maybe not.
