# BMW M635 CSi E24 Widebody by Coutner 2021 Metallic Blue Otto-Mobile 1:18

> A 1:18 scale model of the BMW M635 CSi (E24) Widebody by Coutner in Metallic Blue, rendered in resin by Otto-Mobile. The M88/3-powered E24 was the fastest BMW road car of its generation, here reimagined with a dramatic wide-body conversion.

The BMW M635 CSi (E24) occupies a specific place in the M-car lineage: a grand touring coupe powered by the same 3.5-litre M88/3 inline-six that drove the M1 supercar, producing approximately 286 hp and 340 Nm of torque. Otto-Mobile has captured a widebody-modified example of this 1984–1989 machine in resin at 1:18, finished in Metallic Blue, under the Coutner conversion designation.

## BMW M635 CSi: M1 Engine in a Grand Touring Shell

Built on the E24 sixth-generation 6 Series platform, the M635 CSi ran from 1984 to 1989. Its defining feature was the M88/3 engine, a 3.5-litre inline-six shared with the BMW M1 and producing around 286 hp (DIN) and 340 Nm of torque. The E24 was a substantial coupe that positioned BMW at the top of the European grand touring class throughout the mid-1980s. No equivalent M-badged coupe existed in the BMW range during those years.

## The Coutner Widebody: Reshaping the E24 Silhouette

The Coutner widebody conversion works extensively on the standard E24 body, adding prominent fender flares and revised lower bodywork that significantly broaden the car's stance beyond factory dimensions. Where the stock M635 CSi already carries a purposeful profile, the Coutner modification gives the coupe a custom presence closer in visual weight to a period touring car competitor than a production road car. The Metallic Blue finish on this particular example emphasises the sculpted panel work introduced by the conversion, catching light differently across the extended bodywork surfaces.

## Otto-Mobile Resin Construction at 1:18

Otto-Mobile, whose catalogue reference for this release was issued in 2021, produces this model in resin at 1:18. Resin construction allows for sharper panel-line definition and greater paint depth on metallic finishes than conventional die-cast methods, both important qualities when reproducing the flared bodywork and Metallic Blue livery of this widebody E24. Otto-Mobile's resin 1:18 releases have historically appeared in relatively short runs, and this Coutner widebody variant represents a subject not widely replicated at this scale.

## Placing the Model in a Collection

The E24 M635 CSi in Coutner widebody form sits naturally alongside other M-lineage subjects: the BMW M1 (E26) that shares the M88 engine family makes an obvious companion, as does a standard-body E24 release to show the extent of the conversion. The model's broad stance also pairs well with other Otto-Mobile custom and tuning builds. For collectors focused on 1980s European performance road cars or on the wider custom and restomod culture that has grown around the E24 platform, this Metallic Blue resin piece stands out on the shelf.
