I literally saw one today - his was '88 - 3.5 csi.
Very rare now - beautiful car. Had a great chat at the lights.
If you unblock the plate I can tell you the exact year. Lol
One of my favorites of all time. I used to admire these growing up as a kid. 6 Series needs to come back. My F12 650i was my favorite car ever that I owned.
The 8 series is just this generation’s 6-series; it occupied the same size and market position, they just moved the number up.
Traditionally, they were two completely different cars but I get it. They’re a lot more similar in size and style now. I still see the 6 as a large performance luxury 2-door. Always had a thing for large 2-doors. The mid 90’s MB S-Coupe is another one I admired. I still put the 6 and 8 in two different categories but I get what you’re saying.
I don’t think the 6 and 8 have ever existed simultaneously and both have always been, primarily, large grand touring 2-door coupes. The E31 was a successor to the E24 in every way, the styling even traces to it. After that car, they left that space in the lineup empty and then resurrected the 6 before ultimately punting it up the nomenclature to be an 8.
Sure, that’s plausible. Maybe the flip headlights vs the shark nose that made me perceive them differently. Also, what their MB market competitor would be and not merely by size comparison: 7 Series-S Class, 3 Series-C Class, 5 Series-E Class, 6 Series- SCoupe/CL Class, 8 Series- SL Class, etc….
The old 6 series was obviously a 7 series coupe. The old 8 series was its own thing. The newer 6 and 8 series are 7 series coupes.
Agreed.

IIRC the E24 M6 was sold in 1988 and 1989 in the US.
