BMW 6 Series

The BMW 6 Series is a coupe, specifically: a GT ( Gran Turismo ). It is built by the German automaker BMW . There are two models: the E24 and the E63 / E64 . ==E24 6 series [  edit ] == The E24 is the first 6-series model. He followed in August 1976 the BMW E9 coupe (CS, CSI and CSL) on. The 630CS and 633CSi were the two types that one could obtain at launch. In 1978 there was a power engined variant of the market, the 635CSi. The US was only the 633CSi available. In 1982, the E24 was updated. Many old parts were replaced by units of the new e28 5 series. Also, there appeared a sportier version: the M635CSi. It has the same 24 valve engine as the BMW M1 . The United States was in 1987, also an M version of the E24, but called it just M6 and had less power. Still in 1987, the luxury version came, the L6 in Europe. At the beginning of the production of the E24 models were built by Karmann. The quality was mediocre and later BMW decided to produce the cars in-house in Dingolfing(Germany). Test reports Autovisie
