About BMW M635 CSI KOENIG 1986

Stylish, fast and well-engineered, the 635CSi enjoyed a production run lasting into the 1990s, being periodically up-dated in line with its sister models. BMW’s 600-series coupe debuted in 1976 and was mechanically similar to the 700-series saloons, although introduced before them. Karmann styled like the preceding 3.0CS/CSi, the newcomer was similarly well-specified, featuring all-independent suspension, four-wheel disc brakes and power-assisted steering as standard.

The brainchild of BMW’s Motorsport department, the BMW M635 CSi version arrived in 1984. Its engine was a development of the M1 supercar’s 3.5-litre, 24-valve and six-cylinder unit producing 286bhp, the increased power necessitating chassis improvements which included altered weight distribution, revised suspension, bigger brakes and a limited-slip differential. There was also a close-ratio five-speed gearbox (or four-speed multi-mode auto) and a more luxurious interior, while outwardly this ultimate 6-Series model was readily distinguishable by virtue of its ‘M Technic’ body kit. The performance was emphatically in the supercar league, the M635CSi being capable of reaching 62mph in around 6 seconds on its way to a top speed in excess of 155mph.

In the eighties there were some incredible Koenig-Specials to come out of Munich, Germany made an extreme body kit for the first generation 6 Series known as the E24. The front wheel arches extended all the way to the back of the car, encapsulating the rear trunk with an aggressive wing. This was a nod to the current generation Ferrari Testarossa which Koenig-Specials also tuned at the time.

The amazing Alpine white Koenig BMW 635 CSI has featured a wide variety of magazines and articles including being the BMW magazine cover car in the 1990s. This stunning Koenig sits proudly on a set of BBS Wheels. This car is a true 90’s icon.
