Here are some pictures of the new BMW M6. I think the car looks great and the specs really make this car stand out!

M6 takes the same bi-turbo 4.4-litre V8, blown to produce a stout 552bhp

The coupe passes 62mph in just 4.2 seconds and 124mph (200kph) in 12.6 seconds. Top speed is governed to 155mph, although the M Driver's Package will up that to 189mph.

BMW claims the new M6 is a third less thirsty than before, quoting a 28.5mpg combined economy figure. The leggy seven-speed twin-clutch transmission helps there, of course.

Blue brake callipers will be standard-fit on all new M cars, too, and if you spec the optional 19kg lighter carbon brakes there'll be further telltales: those anchors will take on a golden hue.

 

Looks weird to me....
And still the same interior from 2002 ..........

 

I would change the wheels first thing. Lowered with multispokes or HRE style. Then maybe it would look more aggressive.

Too many humps and reflectors and creases in the back...why the hell does BMW always have to make their cars look like the hunchback of notre dame???!!!!

I like how it has a little M6 badge in the front...

 

looks good but, is that a stretched e92 m3? I swear the new design looks like an update than a new version.

 

looks badass. The hvac controls could use an update

 

Really does nothing to me.
Performance wise, a 1M or M3 is pretty close to it for at least 1/2 the price.
Who cares about mpg, this world has gone nuts. I am not saying I don't want better gas mileage but the gear heads like us want more performance, better handling, cool high tech wizardry. The last thing on our mind is 28.5 mpg...
Look wise, I am like izzy. It looks like a stretched M3. The interior is nothing new and very blend.
Very disappointing. Actually, I am happy because I am not lusting for this car so I can keep my hard earned $$ a little longer and keep driving the little C monster.

 

Sucks. I don't like it.

 

New M6 looking good!

 

With all due respect, this car is nothing like a 1M or M3 performance-wise. This car will not handle as well due to weight but, like the M5, will absolutely obliterate both of them (and your C63) in a straight line. 0-60 time is of little relevance unless one races from stoplights (with AWD it would likely be in the 3s, but that's of course a moot point) as accelerating to pass at highway speeds or out of trouble is what most owners will realize on a daily basis.

I also think that mileage is very important and applaud this engine and MB's new 5.5TT for the mpg they can achieve. These cars are daily drivers not track specials and covering 35,000 per year that's a fair chunk of money plus the convenience factor of not having to stop every 250 miles.

However, on the point of mileage and styling I will agree that is all personal preference but I had to say something about the performance comment....

 

I love it, but did they forget about rear calipers? they look like ordinary calipers!

 

I honestly prefer the looks of the old M6, combined with it's symphony of ten cylinders...

 

The appeal of this design to me looks to be very color-dependant. The burnt orange color shows every concavity in sharp relief to its adjacent surface...it's perhaps a little too busy but in black or white might look absolutely perfect. I have a Silver-gray Z4M Coupe with the flame/concave body styling and depending on the lighting and which surfaces throw shadow lines I sometimes think it still looks fantastic and very fresh and at other times a little strange, kind of angular and lumpy around the rear quarters.

 

Love it. Love the way that thing looks. It's perfect.

 

The new design looks a lot better than the fat whale it replaces. I really thought the last-gen was hideous but this is a massive improvement. Still wouldn't buy one though but only because I'm not that into coupes plus it's awfully expensive.

 

Respectable performance, but I couldn't live with the way it looks.


It looks.... like a BMW.

 

 

Nah not WOW...


MEH at most....

 

Wow is the word.

 

I don't think it will "Absolutely Obliterate" my C63 or many others on this forum in a straight line....at least to 60. I too had to say something about the performance comment...

Did you miss the part where transferred already mentioned that 0-60 will be a wash? Out in the real world though, I would guess that, more often than not, the new M5 and M6 will outrun a lot of cars, including our beloved C63 (PP, tuned or not).

 

Not feeling it. This 6 series and the previous one have zero elegant lines. Every line is complex and jumbled, the new SL is so much sleaker. Not to mention, BMW hasnt changed the feel of the interior in FOREVER! The only things they seem to ever change is the guages (only slightly), the larger screen and the steering wheel.

SL for me! That MPG is pretty incredible though

 

Did miss that part....still don't see it

Read man.

 

Very nice, nicer than the current one for sure. I like that Nav screen setup. I guess those new 3-series lights aren't going to be transferred across all their offerings though...

 

Which one is it? Holding on to your "hard earned dollares" or blowing it out the tailpipe? .... you do realize, it offers incredible performance by wasting less energy. I take that "high tech wizardry" all day long ...

In regards to performance, a C63, whether tuned or not, can't hang with an M6. It couldn't hang with the old V10 on top. I'm talking real world, not some staged "mile" run . This M6 will have torque way below the N/A V10, which means it will walk the little C monster much sooner.

I like the way it looks, but I can understand if it's not everyones taste. That orange doesn't suit a big coupe like the M6 ... but with a different color, a drop and some wheels it will look great.
