The E24 6 series was produced from 1976-1989 and was the replacement for the CS and CSL E9 coupes. Like the E9 coupes, the early bodies of the 6 were manufactured by Karmann until production was moved in-house by BMW. It was the proven E12 5 series that provided the chassis and much of the mechanicals for the E24. Dubbed the ‘Bavarian Ferrari’ the 6 series was a high end two door luxury sports coupe. The 628 model was produced until 1987 and was a budget model for the European market. The 633 Csi featured the first generation of DME and ABS brakes were available as an option. The following year, the 635 CSI received the same DME as the 633 CSI.

E24s produced after June 1987 were fitted with ellipsoid headlamps, as per the recently introduced E32 7 Series. The front and rear bumpers and spoilers were redesigned to use a single design worldwide, and the engine was updated to the higher compression M30B35 type.

The “Highline” interior refers to a special Nappa leather upholstery treatment, whereby hide is used to cover essentially every visible surface of the cabin. It includes hand-stitched Nappa leather on the seats, door panels, centre console, glovebox door, headliner, sun visors, door pillars, upper door trim and dashboard.
