BMW M6 Coupe & Cabriolet Break Cover!

IN BMW, BMW Asia, M, M6, Coupe, Convertible

Mixing luxury and sports in one potent cocktail, is the new BMW M6 Coupe and BMW M6 Convertible. both will use the company's 560 bhp V8 powerplants.


I can't wait any longer. I want to know what 340 bhp feels like, so I floor it. Woah! This is a blisteringly quick car. From the lightning quick shifts from the S-tronic gearbox, to the sensational 5-cylinder engine soundtrack, this car is fast, fast, fast. The quattro drivetrain helps keep you in check too, so you can really exploit all that power. There's no doubt this car will smack the smirk off anyone driving a much more expensive sportscar. EVO or STi? No problem. Unless they've got a huge aftermarket turbo under the bonnet, the result will be the same - Germany 1, Japan 0.
