Filed under: Coupes Sports/GTs BMW RR of the Day

Back in 1976 BMW sought to produce a coupe that would be the spiritual successor to the CS and CSLs of the previous decade. In doing so the E24 6-series was born.

The bodies were originally produced by Karmann and came in two trim levels: 630CS and 633CSi. The latter came equipped with a 181 HP 3.2-liter inline-six and this example from 1984 kicks off this week's RR of the Day 80s edition.

This particular "Shark" as it's affectionately known in Bimmer-speak has been put away for the winter and aside from a lowered suspension and an M-spoiler left in stock condition by its owner. The body is rust free and the mechanicals are in good enough shape to provide sunny-day amusement for Flickr member E24.

We're looking for more 80s-era goodness so make sure to submit your own glam-rock blaring ride to our Flickr group by following the directions posted after the jump.

How to submit to RR of the Day:
Create a Flickr account if you don't already have one. Search for and join the group called 'Autoblog RR of the Day'. Upload up to three photos of your ride to your own account at a size no larger than 450 pixels wide if possible and include as much information about it and yourself as possible. Even if your ride is sweet it will not be chosen if there's not a lot of info accompanying it. Click on each photo and just above the picture it will say "Send to group". Click that and select the Autoblog group. You're done that's it!
