BMW 6-Series News

Porsche has taken the wraps off its 2013 911 Carrera 4 range, including coupes, convertibles, and 4S models. If you love the 991, but simply must have all-wheel drive, one of these is your answer. We drove the 2013 BMW M5 and M6 back-to-back at Laguna Seca, and brought you our impressions--and a...

BMW has caught a lot of flack for its latest generations of M Division cars, including the soon-to-be-replaced M3. People calling themselves purists deride them as heavy, soft, too luxurious, and unfocused. One thing they rarely call them, however, is slow. That's because, wherever you stand on...

Over the past few months, we've brought you spy photos and spy videos of the 2013 BMW M6 Gran Coupe, and we've even given you our take on its non-M sibling's best and worst traits. Today, add confirmation from BMW spokesman Dave Buchko that the M-flavored Gran Coupe will in fact be sold here in the...

If you’re in the market for a 2013 BMW 5 Series or 6 Series with a V-8 under the hood, we’ve got some good news for you: the more powerful twin-turbo V-8 used in the latest 7-Series and the 6-Series Grand Coupe will soon find its way into 5 and 6-Series models. Word from Car and Driver...

We’ve already given you all the news that’s fit to print about BMW’s 2012 M6 Coupe and Convertible models, including our first drive report on the open air version, published earlier this month. We’ve praised the M6’s TwinPower Turbo 4.4-liter V-8, which makes 560...

This is not a good time for the indecisive. Just when you thought that BMW couldn't fragment the performance-luxury choices any more—with the X6 and the 5-Series Gran Turismo already appealing to the niche shoppers who are torn between pre-defined vehicle types like coupes, sedans, wagons...

If you're at all familiar with chili peppers and the zing they bring, you know that a little heat's a good thing, but too much spice can completely numb the senses—or bite back. It's how we couldn't help but feel about the new 2012 BMW M6 Convertible, top down, in one of its many Sport-mode...

When the BMW M6 Convertible and Coupe hit these shores this summer, both will come to market with a 560-horsepower, 4.4-liter V-8 engine shifted through a seven-speed M-DCT gearbox. While the M-DCT will undoubtedly execute smooth and swift gear changes and produce the lowest possible lap times (not...

The configurator for the latest 2012 BMW M6 Convertible has just gone live on BMW’s website, offering potential buyers and fans alike to set up the car to their exact specifications. You may be wondering why there’s no configurator for the M6 Coupe just yet. That’s because BMW has...

From next year onwards the BMW M6 range is going to offer three variants for the first time, with the regular M6 Coupe and M6 Convertible models to be joined by a brand new M6 Gran Coupe based on the luxurious 6-Series Gran Coupe that has just gone on sale. Spotted here testing on the...

BMW has issued a worldwide recall affecting more than 1.3 million 5-Series and 6-Series models, including approximately 367,000 examples located in the U.S. The recall only affects the previous generation 5-series and 6-Series models, built between 2003 and 2010. In the U.S. the recall affects 2004...

While much of the rest of the BMW lineup is downsizing to turbocharged four-cylinders, the M6 is downsizing to a twin-turbo 4.4-liter V-8. Yes, the V10 is gone, but the new model's power figures are right where they need to be, and, perhaps more importantly, so is the look. We've already seen the...

Here's one more thing for us Americans to complain about: Europe is getting a TwinPower Turbo diesel version of BMW's 6-Series, complete with all-wheel-drive, and we're not.

It's been merely four days since BMW revealed the new 2012 M6 Convertible and 2013 M6 Coupe, but M5Board has already posted videos showing off the newest models from BMW's M division. The two videos show off both the Coupe and Convertible M6s driving around a track with even a little tail-out...

With the new 6-Series Gran Coupe, the revised 6-Series Coupe and Convertible, and now the 2012 M6, BMW's 6-Series range is approaching the model proliferation of the 3-Series. In this case, that's a very good thing. First, lets hit the vitals: power comes from a 7,200-rpm redline, 4.4-liter...

This weekend we brought you the first official details and photos of the 2013 BMW 6-Series Gran Coupe four-door coupe, and now, we have a boatload of new images plus an official video. The video features a neat approach, allowing you to choose exterior or interior design information as you wish...

The 2012 BMW 6-Series is a significant improvement on the previous model, in aesthetics, performance, and features. Today, a new model joins the 6-Series lineup: the Gran Coupe. A four-door take on the 6-Series theme, the new Gran Coupe was previewed at the 2010 Beijing Auto Show, and confirmed for...

Tired of waiting for BMW’s own M6 to arrive? Then perhaps you should give the guys at Alpina a call. The German tuning firm--and a BMW specialist--has unveiled the follow up to the B6 Biturbo Convertible that we saw at the recent 2011 Frankfurt Auto Show, the all-new B6 Biturbo Coupe. Based...

The new 6-Series, both coupe and convertible, are very, very good grand touring cars. But another 200 or so horsepower, M Division suspension tuning, and some customization of the design inside and out could just make them brilliant--and according to the latest rumors, that could happen soon. We...

Top down, cruising through the hills and along the coast of Baja or in the coupe, dashing down Highway 1, the 2012 BMW 6-Series is an experience not quite like any other in the segment: fast, comfortable, stylish, and fun, yet unconcerned with the outer limits of extreme sportiness. In other words...
