THE BIG SIX.

“The BMW 6 Series is an all-time classic, a brand-defining icon for BMW. It is the epitome of what a true premium GT should be. The history of the mind-blowing gran turismo model from Munich starts back in the mid-70s. The first generation of the 6 Series was the E24, replacing the outgoing E9 (3.0 CS series). The E24 6 Series was developed fully on the platform of the E23 7 Series and was purely rear-wheel drive. The first 6 Series in history was a completely fascinating car which thrilled enthusiasts all over the world with its striking, muscular design and the driving sportiness of the chassis.”

These cars are on an upswing in terms of value. They get rarer by the day, and more people are holding onto them when they do become available. As it sits right now, the car is $10k. To do a bone stock (with a few OEM upgrades, of course) full restoration with full paint, interior, suspension and engine, we would be at roughly $60k, or we can be somewhere in the middle, where we can just build it to suit what you want to use it for. Going the restoration route would also give us the ability to customize the car with things like a refrigerator, humidor, custom JetLife trim inlays/glass etching, wood trim, and really, anything else you can imagine. The goal is always to deliver the utmost personal experience when any car is restored, making it a pleasant place to spend time no matter the occasion.

WHAT WOULD IT LOOK LIKE?

Restored to original condition would look a lot like this:
