This 1988 BMW M6 is a striking example, finished in Cinnabar Red over a Natur leather interior. Powered by a 3.5-liter S38 inline-six engine, this classic sports coupe is paired with a five-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential, offering an engaging driving experience.
The car rides on 17″ multi-piece BBS wheels wrapped in 235/45 Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S tires, featuring 2017 date codes. Additional exterior highlights include a metal sunroof, fog lights, bright trim, a power antenna, a decklid spoiler, and twin center-exit exhaust outlets that enhance its sporty appeal.
From the factory, the M6 was equipped with MacPherson struts up front and a semi-trailing arm suspension in the rear, along with larger anti-roll bars front and back compared to the standard E24 model. Braking duties are handled by power-assisted four-wheel disc brakes with ABS and ventilated front rotors, ensuring confident stopping power.
Inside, the cabin features power-adjustable front sport seats upholstered in Natur leather, complemented by color-coordinated door panels and carpets. Modern conveniences include air conditioning, cruise control, power windows and locks, and an AM/FM/cassette stereo linked to a six-disc CD changer mounted in the trunk. The leather-wrapped, airbag-equipped steering wheel frames a 170-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and gauges for fuel level and coolant temperature.
This M6 shows 95,000 miles on the six-digit odometer, with approximately 10,000 of those miles accumulated under the current ownership. The 3.5-liter S38B35 inline-six engine features Bosch Motronic fuel injection and produces a factory-rated 256 horsepower and 243 lb-ft of torque. Power is delivered to the rear wheels via the manual transmission and limited-slip differential, making for a lively and engaging drive.
Recent maintenance history includes a clutch replacement in 2005, catalytic converter in 2006, and both radiator and fan clutch replacements in 2010. The vehicle most recently passed a California emissions test in July 2024.
Acquired by the seller in 2000, this E24 M6 is offered with a tool kit, a clean Carfax report free of accidents or damage, and a clean California title in the seller’s name. This well-maintained M6 blends classic BMW performance with timeless style, ready to be enjoyed by an enthusiast or collector.
