Subject: The M635CSi has the 24 valve engine in it, so you will...

know it when you see it as it has 6 throttle bodies on it instead of one. The Euro is suseptible to broken timing chains at higher mileage and this being an interference engine a broken chain will runi the engine with pistons hitting valves. That is the big problem.

The M635CSi is a 286HP manual tranny car. Highly sought after by many that can stand the idea of owning a Euro model, not that this is too difficult to do. Parts are available mostly and expertise exists in the groups of E24 owners so other than emissions (if you have that test in your area) there shouldn't be problems. Notice I didn't say 'any' problems. So get it and let us know about it. Or just let us know if you decide not to get it. Check http://www.normgrills.net/bcg/ for lots of info on the E24.
