BMW 6 Series?

I hope they will come out with this soon...preferably the M Version

645ci Bimmer


Featuring fully variable VALVETRONIC valve control, the engine develops 325-horsepower and 330 lb-ft of powerful torque at 3,600 rpm. This enables the new 6 Series Coupe to effortlessly reach its top speed of 149 mph (electronically limited). Acceleration is equally good, with the BMW 645Ci covering the sprint from 0-60 mph in well under six seconds.

looks a lot better than the old 6 Series to me.
I guess we have different tastes since you like the older version
better.

Last 6 series

Looks like BMW may be taking some styling ideas from it's Japanese competition. I am not to fond of this body style but it will probably grow on me.

I've said it before...Chris Bangle's design department should be dragged out onto the Neurembergring and be shot...

And you drag out the most nasty orange 635 you can find too huh?



And there already is an M6. They were made between 1987 to 1989, and if you can find one, they still go for about $25,000.00 Sharks have a pretty good following and if you can find an M6 or a 628CSI...ohhhh yeah.

Anyway...for those of you that like this sad sad rendition of a beloved classic...the new M6 will be out in 2005.

Because when your cruzing down the autobahn at 150, they dont want you reachng down to grab your 62 Oz big gulp and Loosing control and crashing. It took Many years for BMW to even enclude a Cup holder in any of their cars, Porsche still doesnt offer them.


also note that the cup holder is on the passenger side, not the drivers side....

Good point! I'd be reluctant to put it on the passenger side so close to the "i-drive" system anyway.

If I remember correctly, they are selling a very limited number of them, and I think they were all sold out in like 6 minutes or something.
