About the BMW 635 CSi E24 Malachit Green Metallic AUTOart 1:18
TL;DR: AUTOart's 1:18 diecast BMW 635 CSi E24 in Malachit Green metallic reproduces BMW's 1980s six-cylinder coupe, nicknamed the "Shark" for its long nose. Upper-mid tier diecast construction handles the E24's clean, understated lines and period-correct color with genuine surface depth.
The E24's long hood and short rear deck defined BMW's coupe styling for over a decade, and a period color like Malachit Green does more to place this car in its era than any badge could.
AUTOart's Diecast Treatment of the E24's Proportions
The 635 CSi's defining feature, a long hood tapering to a comparatively short rear deck, is a proportion that reveals casting flaws easily along that unbroken hood surface, and AUTOart's build holds a clean line without waviness. The Malachit Green metallic finish carries real depth under direct light, a period BMW color that reads warmer and more saturated than the cooler modern greens later manufacturers substitute. Panel gaps around the doors and the E24's signature quad headlamps stay tight for the tier, and the interior's period-correct dashboard and seat pattern are rendered with more texture than an entry diecast would attempt.
The E24 6 Series in BMW's Coupe Lineage
The E24-generation 6 Series ran through most of the 1980s, and the 635 CSi sat near the top of that range with a larger six-cylinder engine, positioning it as BMW's flagship grand touring coupe before the 8 Series eventually replaced it. That era of BMW design, clean and restrained rather than aggressively styled, gives the E24 a specific appeal to collectors who favor understated 1980s German coupes over louder contemporary rivals. This piece suits a BMW coupe chronology or a broader 1980s German grand tourer shelf, and its metallic green finish sets it apart from the more commonly seen silver or black E24 replicas.
