E24 production continued in 1977 at Karmann as a complete assembly until August, when the work changed so that only the steel body shell was made by Karmann and then shipped to BMW's plant in Dingolfing for assembly. Early E24 cars built before August 1977 are therefore the rarest and carry a Karmann build plate in the left door frame, and are sought by collectors. The 633CSi and the 630CS were joined by the 635CSi the following year.
