BMW 6-Series M6 (05-10) - Review Review by Simon Harris on 13 March 2006 Last Updated: 04 January 2007 BMW’S M division returns to the 6-Series, rekindling memories of the old M635 CSi of the late 1980s. The M6 Coupe and Convertible use the same 5.0-litre V10 engine as used in the M5 saloon, which is said to be capable of 205mph if completely derestricted - luckily UK cars come restricted to 155mph. The M6 has many bespoke parts over a standard 6-Series and BMW claims it deserves comparison with illustrious models from Ferrari and Porsche. It's not quite that good (although it's certainly expensive) and is perhaps a little intimidating on UK roads with almost too much power. However the M6 will remain an exclusive and dramatic high-performance car for uncompromising customers. 4.5 out of 5 Other BMW reviews Summary Facts & Figures Equipment Driving & Performance Comfort Costs Safety & Reliability Buying & Selling Also Consider Company Car Info Gallery 4.5 out of 5 Summary Tweet New price range: £83,705 - £92,175 Used price range: £18,101 - £54,688 View all used prices Get a BMW 6-Series M6 (05-10) information pack Next steps BMW 6-Series M6 cars for sale Use our cars for sale search facility to find great deals on second hand cars.
