BMW M6 convertible



BMW M GmbH follows its tradition of producing ultra-performance luxury vehicles by introducing its latest variant, the new BMW M6 Convertible.

The BMW M6 Convertible is a unique performer featuring the internationally acclaimed engine of the year, the 5.0-litre V10, which produces an awesome 373 kW (507 bhp) and maximum torque of 520 Nm. With a suspension developed for supreme dynamics and a Sequential M Gearbox (SMG) complete with Drivelogic, this ultimate power unit turns the latest product from BMW M into an open sports car able to accelerate to 100km/h (62mph) in just 4.8 seconds.

That my friends is faster than the Lamborghini Countach most of us dreamed about as youngsters, and all with the roof off...... What a beast of a car.

I expect the price to be in excess of $110,000 plus markup in USA.....

Ramp up production and get them out fast BMW.

I wonder what BMW M have up their sleeve for the next car?

The 6-series in itself has quite a presence, the cabrio stands out even with its roof up (see that rear window area?) Must say though that I'll be keen to see the next generation BMWs, as I'm really not a Bangle fan at all. I thought I'd get used to it after a while, but nope. The 3-series at least was a relief, the coupe should be interesting once it comes out.

Bangle is a geneous.... The window at the back of the convertible 6 has a surprising amount of viewing ability...
