BMW 6-Series News
-
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, it's the perfect touring companion. We weren't fans of some of the styling elements of the previous 6-Series, but those worry areas have been fully addressed with the 2012 model, especially at the rear. Up front, the aggression level has been turned up a notch, but not in a way that makes it look...

The Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance is still a fresh, frenetic memory, but I've spent the last two days driving some of BMW's newest hardware up and down California's central coast. Between clipping canyon apexes and whirring along in high-tech quietude, it became clear: the new 6er coupe is about more than just better looks. Power, of course, is ample. The 400-horsepower, 450-pound-feet of torque twin-turbo 4.4-liter V-8 does its job even more readily and forcefully than in the new Convertible, thanks to its lighter weight--several hundred pounds were saved in the hard top even though the...

Four-door coupes aren't exactly the hot new thing these days, but for BMW fans, the niche is getting ready to get interesting: the BMW Gran Coupe is being built, and these spy shots show it's not far from being ready. Expected to join the BMW range as part of the 6-Series lineup, the Gran Coupe is the four-door counterpart to the standard 6-Series Coupe. With more room and similar performance, it could be an enticing buy for those that desire a little more practicality but can't give up the coupe-like look. Based very closely on the concept car of the same name, the 6-Series Gran Coupe is...

BMW says its new 2012 6-Series Coupe--by the numbers, the 650i--will be priced from $83,875, including destination, when it goes on sale later in the year. The new Coupe is the star at a press preview today in Baja Mexico, where BMW confirms the hardtop two-door will go on sale late in the summer with a slimmer pricetag than its drop-top companion. Earlier this year, at the 2011 Detroit Auto Show, BMW previewed the new 6-Series lineup, laying out details of the newer, sleeker body (which also it longer and wider than the previous-generation car), and the 650i Coupe's twin-turbo, 4.4-liter V-8...
