The 6 series will be a sports coupe/convertable built on the new 5 platform. BMW is adopting a new scheme for numbering the cars. All even #s will be sports coupes and odd #s will be sedan. I am hoping to buy one when my lease runs out in 2005, provided the styling is good, otherwise it may be CLK 500. Performance wise I am sure it will blow the MBs away.

They say it'll be less lame though. And the 5-series will share this improved iDrive.
 
  Will the 500 HP V-10 really be offered in the 5 and 6?

Looks like a Gran AM to me. I hope they do some serious improvements before launch.

I previously owned the 630 BMW. It was the best car I have ever owned. When the 840/850 came out it was too expensive and really did not seat four people comfortably like the 6 did. I hope if it is on a 5 frame that the back seats become reasonable for those times when you must carry 4 adult persons. I would hope the new 6 series is not in the either of the 840/850 price but somewhere perhaps in the 7 series price range.

I found some spy shots of the new 6. Thought I would post them.




Even with the masking it looks like a CLK beater to me.

#11 of 291 Upcoming M6 by venturaweston

a friend of mine just leased a 3-series and his dealer told him the M6 was coming out next year, but couldn't give him any specs or info.
 
anyone have any info on this future beast? if it's an M5 in that body, SOLD!

#12 of 291 Rumors tell that... by idletask

the M6 will share its engine with the next M5. V10, Valvetronic, 5.5l disp., 500hp.
 
A computer image appeared here in an automotive magazine, and I really hope it doesn't look like that. I quite like the 7 series and Z4 but the image (and the spy shots confirm this) shows a really, really plunging front hood which destroys the balance of the lines, and headlights look really strange.
 
OK, that computer image is just a guess of what it will look like, so there's hope that they're completely mistaken... And anyway I'm waiting to see the car in person. Not that I'll buy it, I don't have the means to.
