Classic 1985 e-24 chassis euro M6

1985 BMW M6 Full M6 BMW trim Description

The BMW E24 is the first generation of BMW 6 Series grand tourer coupes and was produced from January 1976 to April 1989. It replaced the E9 coupes and was, after a 16-year hiatus, succeeded by the E63 6 Series in 2004. The E24 was produced solely in a 2-door coupe body style.[6] Aside from the M635CSi/M6 models, the E24 was powered by a range of M30 straight-6 engines.

The M635CSi is the first of the BMW M6 model line and is the second true "M car" produced after the BMW M1. The M635CSi is powered by the M88/3 straight-6 engine.[7] Being a euro car...it does not have a cat. I have owned this car since 2009. It is one of the cars in my collection...it is not a daily driver. Last fall I had major mechanicals done to include... Current Inspection and registration, Complete tune-up, New stainless exhaust with front resonator from exhaust headers to rear muffler, Complete clutch job, drive belts, hoses replaced, new thrust arms, new brakes, fluid changed and bled, tranny fluid changed, power steering leak repaired, staggard set of Road Force 3 piece aluminum alloy 8X16 front and 9X16 rear rims which are very similar to the OEM BBS 3 piece alloy wheels but are not metric...the OEM BBS wheels and tires are stored and I will include all four with the car. It has a Pioneer stereo system with the CD changer in the trunk. The car also has a/c and has tinted windows. Recaro seats up front, full leather interior which is flawless! No one has ridden in the rear seats! This was a ladies car which was adult driven and well taken care of. I am the third owner of the car. The car was imported to Arizona and is a Arizona car. I bought it and brought it to Massachusetts in 2009. I have driven the car very sparingly. It has been stored here and NEVER driven in the rain or any type of inclement weather. THIS VEHICLE HAS NO RUST OR BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENT!!! I am a retired Army Officer who had two 4 year tours in Germany in the 70's and 80's when these cars were being built. I bought my fist 635csi a 1979 model in 1985.... went on to buy 3 more and ship two back. I used to go to the BMW showroom in Heidelberg and look at a 1985 M6 just like this one...drooling...but a new one was out of my price range...so I enjoyed the 635 csi's. I had a friend who worked as a Master BMW tech..he trained me how to work on them. I have driven the 6ers on the Autobahn where there is no speed limit in out lying places..these cars move...but you better have all the maintenance done and good tires to drive 140mph+... I an also a service brat who was born in Germany..so I'm German - American ..my dad served as a tank Commander under General Patton. German cars are in my blood. I registered this car with the M Registry and it is documented as a authentic euro M6. I'm also a wheel, track, and aircraft maintenance officer...so I am a mechanic. I know cars...been working on them since I was 10 years old. Making the decision to "let-go" is a tough one...but ...I'm not getting any younger. Also...I live on Cape Cod in a "retirement tourist community at the beach where the speed limit is 40....I have to drive 50 miles to get to an interstate where I could really drive the car....but for me the fast driving days are long gone and other than having this car in my personal collection...it makes no sense to have it...if you can't really drive it!...I also have all the original manuals, service records and will even throw in a BMW German beer mug!!! Please don't waste our time if you are not a serious buyer.... I just turned 70 last month and realize I need to down-size my collection....I want to sell this car without any hassle...... I fyou have questions...send me a message! Thanks for looking! NADA car values for the 1985 M6 euro version are...

The E24 M635CSi, introduced at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 1983, is the first in the line of M6 models. In 1987, the equivalent model for the North American (U.S. and Canada) market was introduced and badged simply M6.

The M635CSi is powered by a 213kW (286hp) version of the M88/3 engine.[18] The North American M6 vehicle is powered by the detuned 191kW (256hp) version of the S38 engine, which has a lower compression ratio and uses a catalytic converter.

Over its production run from 1983 through 1989, 4,088 M635CSi cars were built, 1,767 of which were for the North American market.[19]
