For the second generation BMW 6 Series Cabriolet, Hamann-Motorsport presents the fascinating customization options at IAA Frankfurt 2011.

The difference between the standard production and Hamann’s customization can be seen at first glance: More dynamic, more style, and clearly more exclusivity – this is how the Hamann Cabriolet presents itself when compared with the production model.

However that is not all – Hamann can do much more than make a car look “pretty”.

The final result: A powerful performance enhancement, distinctive 22-inch alloy rims, stylish modifications of the interior, and aerodynamic components that reduce the car’s lift.

This includes an exciting styling format with optimized airflow across the vehicle’s silhouette. The new LED daytime running lights ensure an appearance that is unmistakable and at the same time provide positive points when it comes to active safety. The sporty-dynamic front spoiler, in connection with the rear apron as well as the rear spoiler’s profile, reduces lift and generates a new, attractive overall appearance. The Hamann side skirts provide for a visual and aerodynamic link between the front and rear.

An additional highlight of this program is the three-piece Hamann wheel called the Edition Race “Anodized”. The matte black anodised spokes and the titanium bolts of the highly polished rim flange emphasise the racing character.

Using the latest forging technology, the rims are extremely light and improve handling, acceleration, and deceleration behaviours due to reduced, unsprung masses.

The special suspension that lowers the sport cabriolet’s center of gravity – by 30mm – adds to the sporty appearance.

The turbo engine that will be boosted to an impressive 510bhp is already on the drawing board. The Hamann Sport Exhaust System with four stainless steel tail pipes provides the roaring sound effects.
