The seller offers for sale a 1984 BMW 635 CSi, an iconic grand tourer from the Bavarian marque’s classic E24 series. Powered by a 3430 cc inline-six petrol engine paired with a manual gearbox, this coupe combines long-distance comfort with traditional rear-wheel-drive dynamics. This example has covered 90,800 km, with the mileage officially certified through service documentation from BMW’s official network.
Finished in metallic grey, the car retains much of its factory paint and is described as matching numbers. The bodywork is reported to be in good condition, with only minimal wear consistent with age. Its elegant lines, sharknose front, and period-correct alloy wheels reflect the timeless design of the E24 6 Series.
Inside, the car is equipped with beige Alcantara upholstery that remains clean and complete. The seats, controls, and dashboard are all intact, with minor wear only. The vehicle is equipped with a functioning sunroof and air conditioning system.
The BMW 635 CSi was introduced in 1978 as the performance version of the E24 6 Series. With the M30 straight-six engine under the hood, the 635 CSi combined grand touring comfort with responsive handling and capable performance. Producing over 210 horsepower in European specification, it was able to reach speeds exceeding 220 km/h and had the kind of long-legged refinement that made it a favorite among executives and enthusiasts alike.
The E24’s body was penned by Paul Bracq, known for his work on both Mercedes-Benz and BMW models. Its long bonnet, driver-focused cockpit, and signature Hofmeister kink defined the luxury sport-coupe silhouette of the era. Inside, the cabin offered advanced features for its time, including onboard diagnostics, power windows, and high-quality materials. The model saw continual refinement throughout its life until it was eventually succeeded by the E31 8 Series.
The 635 CSi was also a successful motorsport platform, particularly in Group A touring car championships, where its balance and power made it a formidable contender. Today, it is valued both for its performance pedigree and its usability as a classic GT car.
This particular example, with its certified mileage, mostly original finish, and complete documentation, offers an attractive opportunity for collectors who appreciate understated design and mechanical clarity. The combination of originality, care, and service history sets it apart in a market where many examples have lost their authenticity through age or modification.
