BMW 635 CSi - The Icon of the 80s

The car is part of the legendary 6 Series by BMW and represents the pinnacle of automotive excellence. Known as the E24, this model was the first generation of the 6 Series designed as a luxury sports car with outstanding performance and sophistication. It was developed under the direction of chief designer Paul Bracq and engineer Klaus Luthe. The BMW 635 CSi was revolutionary both in terms of technology and aesthetics. The elegant, elongated body with the unmistakable BMW kidney grille and distinctive twin headlights made it an instant classic.

Technical Features of the BMW 635 CSi
The BMW 635 CSi came with a 3.4-liter inline-six engine producing 218 horsepower and 310 Nm (229 ft-lb) of torque. This enabled an acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7.5 seconds. Additionally, the car was equipped with an innovative electronic fuel injection system and an advanced suspension system for optimal road handling. Safety features included ABS and a robust roll bar. As the successor to the BMW E9, the BMW 635 CSi was also successful in the world of motorsports, being used in various racing series.
Visual Details and Historical Context of the Miniature Model
The BMW 635 CSi is presented in a subtle gray color, which stands out well in the photos of the model. The body features fine details like the prominent front spoiler and rear diffuser, emphasizing the sporty character of the original. It's interesting to note that 1978, the year of production start, was marked by significant events – both in political and cultural realms. For instance, the first "Star Wars" sequel "The Empire Strikes Back" was released, and the song "Stayin' Alive" by the Bee Gees topped the charts. These bits of information help to better understand the car's age and the era in which it was popular.
