When shopping for an E9 I don't think you should be concerned with options, colors, etc, the body condition is all that matters, plus people try to get a Euro (or pre-74) car, which is why I think I see CSi's always costing more than CS's. Also, the injection is a plus for most people so they don't have to deal with carbs (plus the "extra 20hp" looks good on paper when they read about them). I usually see CS's in good shape in the 8-12k range and CSi's in good shape at a higher 12-16k range here.

This is reality for the US market:

Mint 3.0CS: 15K-22K

Mint 3.0CSi: 12K-22K

The difference is that the CSi is a Euro car, so most of them usually lack the desireable options you're more likely to find on a US model

Cloth seats, no sunroof, no a/c--all of these bring the value of a CSi down in the US market.
