Vehicle Description
Rarely can one find such an original and unmolested example of the
legendary BMW 635 CSi Coupe Sport in the beautiful back country of
Bedford Village New York. Such is the case with this exceedingly
rare and totally original Slick Roof (sunroof delete) European
delivery Model E24. A total of 5803 Coupe Sports, hence the CS
designation were ever produced from 1975 thru 1989. This Karmann
Design body design is highly sought after especially in its
European Delivery form with its short chrome front and rear bumpers
and a close ratio 5 speed gearbox. Fit with power steering and
electric windows it is a highly desirable combination of options.
When the term Survivor is properly and honestly applied it can only
mean only one thing. The car sits on the ground today the way in
which it left the factory in Dingolfing Germany some 40 plus years
ago. Of greatest importance is the condition and quality of its
Fiord Blue paint. Dazzling, front to back!! No repairs ever, no
damage and zero dreaded rust. No scratches, no dings, no pings,
even the original windshield defies its age! In recent years the
word patina gets thrown around. An immediate examination of the car
reveals that this E24 sets a high standard of excellence. Open the
hood, then you are in disbelief of the condition of the engine bay.
The massive shock towers stand straight and tall, a tribute to
German engineering. After 40 years this matching numbers engine and
drivetrain sound, look and perform as it was meant to be. Its 215
HP classic straight six powered by the most reliable Bosch Motronic
make this one the perfect combination. Based on the E12 5 Series
platform this German Grand Tourer handles, shifts and performs as
it should. The car just saw a major service at the renowned shop of
Bimmers Only in Bedford Hills to the tune of over three thousand
dollars. This is a turn key purchase. The light ivory leather
interior gracefully shows its age as does the Wilton carpeting and
Mohair headliner.
