Blue Plate E24: 1983 BMW 633CSi

The E24 generation BMW 6 Series was a grand luxury tourer sold from 1976 through 1989.  Its shapely shark style curves were penned by legendary designer Paul Bracq and prices have been reasonable for years. This next one is really cheap, but it needs a cosmetic refresh -- which could be fun and rewarding.  Find this 1983 BMW 633CSi offered for $2000 in SF Bay Area, CA via craigslist.

Underappreciated Classic: 1981 BMW 633CSi

When will the E24 generation BMW 6-series get the market attention and love it deserves?  Oh...I'm not supposed to say that?  I'm just supposed to keep my mouth shut and let all the sheeple go and spend their money on Porsche 911s and over restored Camaros?  Okay.  Right.  Nothing to see here. Not a fantastic piece of machinery with a manual gearbox that desparately needs some Singer style restorations for the wealthy buyer to scoop up like popcorn.  Find this 1981 BMW 633CSi here on eBay offered for $8,100 buy-it-now or make offer located in Sugar Land, TX with 3 days to go.

Bracq Friday: 1984 BMW 633CSi

Out of all the Paul Bracq designed classics (and there are many) one of my favorites has to be the E24 6-series, which certainly isn't the most beautiful  (W113 Pagoda 280SL is the most beautiful), but it offers a level of elegance, class, and sophistication for a paltry price. Find this 1984 BMW 633CSi here on eBay bidding for $4,300 reserve-not-met with 2 days to go, located in Hicksville, NY.

10k: Shark Bait: 1984 BMW 633CSi E24 5 Speed

The E24 generation BMW 6-series was the successor to the classic BMW CS and CSL.  While the E9 (CS and CSL) are extremely expensive in any condition (even a rustbucket) the E24 6 Series are very reasonable.  It is a pretty car and Paul Bracq's design set the style of BMWs for years to come; don't expect these things to stay cheap for much longer.  Find this 1984 BMW 633CSi E24 5 Speed offered for $9995 in Mercer Island, WA via craigslist.  Tip from Gianni.

15k: Show Quality: 1983 BMW 633CSi E24

The BMW E24 generation 6 Series was introduced in 1976 as a replacement for the aging E9 CS and CSL coupes.  Rumor has it that Bob "Maximum" Lutz had something to do with keeping the E24 looking sporty during his reign as executive VP in charge of Marketing and Sales at BMW, but the shark nosed coupe is one of the better looking '70s coupes.  Find this 1983 BMW 633CSi E24 for sale in Allentown, PA for $13,999 via craigslist.  Tip from Michael DW.

5k: A Better Bond: 1983 BMW 633CSi E24 5-spd

In 1976 the original BMW 6-series introduced to a gas crisis panicked world a new paradigm in Grand Touring (GT) luxury automobiles.  GT cars have always been about style, speed, comfort and usability - roughly in that order - but the E24 6-series didn't need to impress the world with decadent curves like an Aston Martin DB5 or a brutish V8 like a Mach 1 Mustang.  Quite in line with BMW's 60s/70s/80s philosophy, the car was built with the right amount of power from a smooth inline-6, rock solid build quality, autobahn tight handling and understated styling that looks good from all angles, but can blend into the crowd if needed.  It is quite frankly a better spy car than anything 007 ever drove on screen.  Find this 1983 BMW 633CSi for sale in Portland, OR for $5,099 via craiglist.  Tip from Frederic D.
