THE BODY AND TRIM

Pictures are worth a million words..., the body, trim and paint of this M6 are in fantastic shape, with minor imperfections from a 25 year old car. Arguably the best BMW ever made!


THE INTERIOR

The interior of this car is in very good to excellent conditionl! All of the controls and gauges work as they should from the cold a/c to the onboard computer to the electric windows and sunroof. The leather, headliner, dash and carpets are all in excellent condition. There is some slight typical wear on the left side of the driver seat bolster.


THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE  â€¨

This M6 starts, runs and drives Unbelievable. Probably why they say this is the best BMW ever. The engine has great power with awesome high-revving Handbuilt BMW Motorsport engine. The transmission shift perfectly, the braking is great with great pedal feel. The suspension is as it should be firm and exact. The M6 was an exciting mix of strength and luxury that only a select number of enthusiasts ever got a crack at. With only 1632 brought to the US market for 1987 and 1988. . Not very many people have ever gotten a crack at one!



=================================================================================

In 1983 BMW took the M88/3 six cylinder engine, a modified version of the M88/1 from the BMW M1 and put it in the E24 chassis of the BMW 6-Series, creating the M635CSi (called the M6 in North America). It was the only M6 generation having just a manual transmission as its only transmission offering at the time.
The M6 was critically acclaimed throughout its lifespan for its elegant, aggressive "shark-nose" styling, its luxury equipment, and its performance. A top speed of 158 mph (254 km/h) makes the European version the second fastest BMW ever built next to the M1. This is due to all other BMW models being electronically restricted to 249 km/h (155 mph). However, Rug Cunninham BMW ran a bone stock 1987 BMW M6 in the La Carrera Classic Race in Mexico in 1989, and reportedly recorded a top speed of 176 mph indicated. An M6 can be distinguished from other E24 models by a larger front air dam, a rear spoiler, BBS wheels, colour matching side view mirrors, M badges on the grille and back, and slightly larger front brakes.
In North America, the E24 M6 was fitted with the catalyzed S38B35 motor, producing 191 kW (256 bhp) and 329 N·m (243 lbf·ft) of torque. The non-catalyzed version produced 213 kW (286 bhp) and 340 N·m (251 lb·ft) of torque. The non-catalyzed versions were only available in Europe, though there were 538 catalyzed M635csi models sold in Europe in 1988 and 1989. The 1988 and 1989 the M6 was a "world car" with the same bumpers and aerodynamic treatments in all markets.
The M6 achieved 0–97 km/h (0–60 mph) time of 6.0 and 6.8 seconds for the European and American versions, respectively.
Quarter mile times for the European version have been recorded at 14.5 seconds while 161 km/h (100 mph) is achieved in 15 seconds. However, Car and Driver Magazine tested the U.S. M6 in July 1987 and achieved a 0–97 km/h (0–60 mph) time of 6.1 seconds. Also in 1987 Road and Track featured the U.S. M6 as one of the 10 fastest cars in America. Production of the M6 ended in 1989, with 5,859 cars sold, 1,767 of which were North American models.
