The BMW 327 Sport Cabriolet is a testament to pre-war automotive excellence, combining sophisticated styling with engineering prowess. Originating from BMW’s transition into more luxurious sports cars, this medium-sized touring coupe features a sleek, aerodynamic design first introduced in 1937, renowned for its flowing lines and classic elegance.
This particular example, a full matching numbers vehicle, underwent an extensive restoration from 1997 to 2009 and again in 2011 – 2012, restoring it to its original grandeur.
Crafted on a chassis-frame designed by German engineer Fritz Fiedler and featuring an ashwood frame body by coachbuilder Autenrieth, the 327 was assembled at the Eisenach factory. It gained popularity during the interwar period, with over 1,300 units produced there until 1941. Post-war, production resumed at the same plant but under Soviet rule.
This car not only embodies the essence of its era but also marks a pivotal point in BMW’s history as a creator of distinguished motorcars.
