Technical Information
Offered here is a 1986 BMW 635CSi, a beautifully preserved example of BMW’s iconic E24 grand tourer finished in factory Diamond Metallic over a classic cream leather interior. Showing just 56,429 original miles and equipped with a five-speed manual transmission, this 635CSi combines elegant 1980s styling, impressive originality, and the engaging driving character that helped establish BMW’s reputation for building some of the era’s finest sporting grand tourers.
The E24 6 Series remains one of BMW’s most recognizable designs, defined by its long hood, low roofline, pillarless side profile, and unmistakable shark-nose front end. The 635CSi represented the performance-oriented evolution of the platform, pairing sophisticated grand touring comfort with BMW’s naturally aspirated inline-six and rear-wheel-drive layout.
This example stands apart for its level of originality. The Diamond Metallic exterior retains its original paint, while the remarkably preserved cream leather cabin reflects both the car’s low mileage and careful ownership. The original radio remains with the car, along with its original spare tire and complete factory tool kit, details that have become increasingly difficult to find on E24s today.
OEM 17-inch three-piece wheels complement the classic bodywork while maintaining a period-correct appearance. Combined with the five-speed manual transmission, the car offers the kind of mechanical and involving driving experience that has made well-preserved BMWs from this era increasingly appreciated by enthusiasts.
Adding considerably to its appeal is an extensive collection of service records dating back to 1986. The documentation provides a history of the car’s care from early in its life and complements its preserved condition and originality.
With just 56,429 original miles, a desirable five-speed manual transmission, original paint, extensive documentation, and an impressive collection of original equipment, this 635CSi represents an increasingly difficult-to-find example of BMW’s classic E24 grand tourer.
