The 6 Series, spawned in 1976, only existed in one class previous to 2004, the E24, but had class-a-plenty to claim a place in motoring history and in the enthusiast heart as a fast-paced luxury Coupe performer. The new six series, due to be unleashed soon, promises not to disappoint.

THE 6 SERIES OVERVIEW  In 2004 BMW will revive the six series, ambitiously announcing the new suave coupe to woo buyers and adorn roads and garages alike. This preliminary report critically examines the six series pre-release. The BMW 6 appeared in 1976, borrowing much in design and mechanics from the upcoming E23 7 series. Initially, it was available in either the 630CS, or the more powerful 633CSi. In 1978, the 635CSi joined the line-up and a year later, the 628CSi became available to tempt entry-level buyers. In 1983, the M635CSi, most notoriously, the 'M6', whose M-power engine was derived from the blitzly and very fast BMW M1 arrived. The M635CSi was a beast of 286bhp and capable of 0-60mph in 6.4 seconds. The the 628CSi was axed by BMW in 1988, with all 6s discontinued in 1989. Click Here to Explore the E24 six >>
