Four seats, gorgeous looks and 286bhp, the M635 CSi embodied the ultimate symbiosis of luxury and high performance in the mid 1980s. Elevating its stylish, elegant 6-Series from a luxurious GT to an outright supercar, capable of mixing it with contemporary Porsches and Ferraris, BMW launched the M635 CSi at the 1983 Frankfurt Motor Show. Designed by BMW's Motorsport division, the M6 was powered by essentially the same 24-valve M88 straight-six as featured in the mid-engined M1, except for having wet-sump lubrication, a higher 10.5:1 compression ratio and Bosch's latest ML-Jetronic fuel-injection.
With a close-ratio Getrag 5-speed gearbox, the only transmission available, the M6 also boasted Bilstein dampers, higher spring rates and a lower ride height to sharpen up the handling, plus a ZF limited-slip differential to handle the 286bhp on tap. Make no mistake, this big BMW was a seriously quick motor car, with 0-60mph dispatched in six seconds flat on the way to a top speed of more than 150mph. Keeping all this performance in check were cross-vented disc brakes with ATE 4-pot callipers and ABS was standard.
Unlike most supercars, the M6 added the practicality of a cabin capable of seating four adults in comfort, plenty of luggage space in the boot and relatively moderate running costs (for a supercar!). The Recaro front seats and Motorsport steering wheel also set the model apart from lesser 6-Series and its M-Sport identity added muscle to the BMW's lithe styling, with discreet 'M' badges and wider alloy rims filling out the flared arches. A driver's car par excellence, the ultimate 6-Series derivative has always been sought after and thanks to its rarity (just 5,859 were built), its status as a classic is assured.
The beautiful example on offer here is a tastefully specified M635, one of the earliest M-badged E24s sold in the UK and one of just 522 of these very special motor cars finished in right-hand drive for our home-market. It's finished in Arctic Blue with a light beige cloth interior and the desirable specification includes electric windows, air-conditioning, the correct 3-spoke steering wheel and even the period-perfect Blaupunkt Bologna Radio Cassette player remains in place. In common. with the majority of 6-Series BMWs, there is some wear to the drivers-side seat bolster which may be worthy of your attention depending upon your future plans.
It's accompanied by the original book pack and service book together with a comprehensive history file which includes numerous invoices from BMW specialists such as Munich Legends, Classic Heros and Classic Bahnstormers underlining the care and attention that has been lavished on the M6 over the years. A superbly presented modern classic which would be a worthy addition to any serious Collection but would be equally as happy out on the open road, stretching its competition-inspired legs as intended. Your early inspection is welcomed and encouraged to fully appreciate this exceptional 'Shark Nose'.
