BMW 6 Series (E24) with coilover suspension

The BMW 6 Series (E24), built between 1976 and 1989, is a true cult coupé that continues to inspire to this day with its sporty, elegant design and powerful straight-six engines. The long bonnet, flat front end and luxurious interior are particularly striking and have made the E24 one of the most sought-after classic cars from Munich. Many models, such as the 635 CSi or the top-of-the-range M6 model, still deliver impressive performance on the road today. A coilover suspension not only gives the BMW 6 Series (E24) a visually appealing lowering, but also ensures a significantly sportier ride and better handling. Compared to a classic sports suspension, a height-adjustable sports suspension offers the advantage of infinitely variable height adjustment, allowing you to customise the vehicle height - a big plus point for tuning to personal preferences or different road conditions. For example, a coilover suspension in the E24 can strike the perfect balance between a classic look and modern performance, while a sports suspension often only offers a fixed lowering without flexible adjustment. You also benefit from improved road holding and reduced body roll, which makes driving a real pleasure even on winding country roads. The optimum combination of style and performance plays a central role, especially in a classic car like the E24, and coilover suspension emphasises this character perfectly.

The BMW 6 Series (E24), especially the 6 CS and 6 CS/1 models from 1982 onwards, is one of the legendary Gran Turismo models of the 1980s. With striking design elements such as the long bonnet, the double headlamp front and the powerful straight six-cylinder engines, the E24 is a true classic that perfectly combines sporty elegance and driving pleasure.

The height-adjustable sports suspension allows you to optimise the vehicle height to suit your requirements.
