I could be wrong but the model 'CSI' does?

Coupe Sports Injected ? Much like the 850 CSI Which has the M goodies ?

[Rubix 434]

Pretty sure there was a 635CSI and an M635CSI..
But I guess the M635CSI had the M88 and was the "M6" of the time, whereas the 635csi could still be considered Sports

Cheers, they are 17" but look like 18" ! Shows how small the old 6ers used to be!

Haha thanks. I should have kept it, at the time a house deposit seemed more important but now that I have one I want my car back lol. Oh well, the M3 is sufficient I guess

I knew of this red high line 15 plus years ago when I owned Rowan's Old Burgundy high line.

The highlines were designed as a method of 'sprucing up' the E24 and enhancing sales in 88/89 before the arrival of the E31. Anecdotally there were 450 Highlines made for the UK market (NZ has around 6 plus imports). However, there were also a limited number made which were called Motorsports. They came in 3 Colours- misano red, nogaro silver, and Macau blue. They were dechromed and had the /// M logo inserts on the seats.

This example however, is not one as it is in Zinnober red.

The same thing applied to the M635csi they did a special run of 20 Motorsport M635csi's the UK - comprising of the same 3 special colours.

They are some of the most sought after right hand drive M635csi's in the UK.

I recall seeing either this car or a red highline in the late 90's in Napier. It was owned by an old bloke who's Son was adamant that it was an auto M635. It wasn't though, it didn't have the engine. The car stood out because it had a set of Momo R1's on it.
