- We are back at Richmonds, and I get the opportunity to drive a 1983 BMW 635 CSI. and what do you do with a 83 coupe ? you take it to one of my favourite wineries, Penfolds Magill estate to pick up a box of red, because everyone knows I love my red. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did.

This is one of the most beautiful cars ever made in my opinion. It is so classy and sleek it is just insane
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Old is gold! They don't make em like they used to!!
Oh mate, loving the 635 driving experience. Just bought a 1989 635 Highline in Macao blue with the Lotus white full leather. Loved that car since my mate's dad bought a brand new one in 1988! Good luck keeping under the speed-limit in Oz! Got a $180 speeder in Victoria in a Ford Falcon hire-car in 1998, haven't paid it yet! God bless the Aussies and Kiwis! Love from a very cold Otford, Kent, UK.
As a Mercedes 500 SEC owner I can say that I love this coupe as well.
great video mate, bloody awesome to see you back on the field for the magpies but will be even better seeing you out there for the power
Great video of a true modern classic. Stock sound system at the time would probably have been cassette player by Blaupunkt.
Great vid Charlie! Some very nice shots in there and very well put together. Then again I guess it’s pretty easy to get nice shots with that car as the subject 🤣
Enjoying your content mate!
Good work can't wait to see you back on the field
Great vid Charlie. Bad luck on the weekend mate. Just waiting on delivery of my 1988 635 from Sydney to Melbourne. Have subscribed. Magpies supporter buy seeing as you guys were the Magpies, that's alright. Pete
It is rare to see one with the original metric alloys and beautiful TRX tires. Michelin still produces them in limited series for healthy enthusiasts, but I was wondering if these are of the same age as the car, in which case they must be as hard as wood.
Nice vid Charlie also nice game back tonight welcome back 🍐🍐
Waiting for the seller to meet me. Praying that it's great!!!
Agreed. They had the M1 at the dealership by my house in Chareston, SC in mid 80’s. They also had the first M5 I ever saw, and it was beautiful, and had 315 HP out of that straight 6. But then there was the 635 CSi. Beautiful, and much prettier in person. It made the M1 look dumb, and especially now, the 635 makes the M1 look really dated. And I can’t stand most BMWs, at the time if it wasn’t an American V8 I didn’t care too much, but fast is fast. I was told that at the time this was the fastest production car as far as top end. Can anyone back that up? Speed?
I'm not sure about that, but you could be right. I thought the Porsche 928 was the fastest street legal production car at the time, and I believe both cars debuted at almost the same time in the late 1970s.
Alexander Eagle I think you are also correct, and suspect that they leapfrogged each other. I’m sure the 928 was quicker, as it was lighter and had more cubes(did you know the 928 was a 5.0liter, just like the Ford Mustang 302 ci?), and while the 928 looked more sleek, somehow the 635 had the top end covered. I’m sure that came down to gearing and redline limits. I always thought it was crazy how Porsche, known for boxer engines and 3.0 liters being big, made a 5.0 liter (at first 4.5, then 4.7, 5.0, and finally 5.4L)V8 and shoehorned that mofo into an engine bay about the same size as the 944! Plus it had an overhead camshaft! Crazy!
And how does it drive besides nice, good and cool?
what language does he speak?😲 It is very annoying that when you can English and you cannot understand it😡😅
The poor car.
Cursed with a automatic transmission
