    Kann mir einer sagen, ob dieser BMW vor den Sommerferien 1987 gebaut wurde, oder erst ab Juli 1987?

      Technik: Im Jahr 1984 erschien das Spitzenmodell der BMW 6er Baureihe (E24), der BMW M635 CSi. Mit dem überarbeiteten Motor aus dem BMW M1 (M88/3) bot er 286 PS und Höchstgeschwindigkeiten von bis zu 250 km/h. Eine Bremsanlage mit größeren Scheiben sorgte für ausreichend Bremskraft. Ab November 1989 wurde eine Version mit Dreiwege-Katalysator angeboten, in der ein neuer Motor verbaut wurde (S38B35). Diese Version wurde auch in den USA und Japan unter der Bezeichnung BMW M6 verkauft.

        Hallo moin. Ich habe noch 2 kleine Fragen zu dem Wagen. Wenn das ok ist. Wäre klasse, wenn sie mir noch was dazu sagen könnten. Einmal zum Innenraum. Vorne über dem Gebläse. Löst sich da das Dashboard ab? Und rechts im Beifahrerfussraum die 4 Schraublöcher. War da ein Autotelefon montiert? Und die zweite Frage, betrifft die Laufleistung. Es scheint, als wäre der Wagen gemäß Tachostand seit 2018 nur ca. 300 Meilen gefahren worden. War er denn abgemeldet? Oder wie kommt das? Danke für ein paar Infos dazu, falls das geht. Ich habe großes Interesse! Gerne können wir auch kurz telefonieren. Meine Nummer ist 01713089402. Danke und Gruß. Alex.
