[...] At first, if you wanted to experience the thrills that BMW’s Formula 1 inspired V10 engine provided, you had to buy a boring sedan. The M5 is not boring and will never be boring to me, but some people just want the car to look like a sports car if it goes like a sports car. Like the nice people they are, BMW provided. The BMW M6 was a M version of it’s 6-series two-door coupe which featured the same award winning 5.0 liter V10 engine. Now, wouldn’t it be orgasmic if you could experience the V10 in an open top? To be able to hear the screaming intake in full clarity? Now you have the BMW M6 Cabriolet. More photos after the jump. [...]

Actually BMW has already had a concept M6 since 2001 which I saw in the UK mag of Autocar. The rear is really a BMW Z series concept copy and the body ratio for front and back is typically 6 series style.

I honestly do not think that Chris Bangle would bother copying Proton. I think it's the other way around…

Wahâ€¦ that engine 5 liter NAâ€¦ 11.3 compression ratio + two 32bit controller in ECUâ€¦ hard to modify. The font looks like Z4, overall good looking. But, I still prefer the Auston Martin DB9 design.

Alamak Mr driver…

If you have an engine that got 4 out of 12 awards, including engine of the year award, why the heck would you want to modify it?

Btw, DB9 design, classic and elegent. M6, modern, provoking and radical… two different themes. I agree with you, DB9 is stunning. But the BMW M6 it's either you like it or loath it kind of thing…

Holyday:

Taste is a very subjective thing. One man's meat can be another's poison. That's why God made each person different. Who will marry the fat if everyone wanted thin? Who will marry the barely lookable if everyone wanted the very lookable?

Simple..that's why some people own the jUara or the fiat multipla. Because they don't need a car which attracts too much attention. But if it was me..of course i would choose the multipla anytime over the champ. Inner beauty of the multipla is way better than the juara…hehehe..

so it's the same for cars..not every man will agree that Liz Hurley is the hottest looking MILF ever. Some might just say that Angelina Jolie is better..then again..they're both very MILFalicious.

Now who doesn't agree?

It's a seriously good coupe.

But I was a bit puzzled why when it was launched, it was targetted towards women by BMW. They said they are recognising women as customers with high buying power and I'm sure there are out there but with that kind of strategy, it would have turned away some men who may have been thinking of buying one.

Strange….

Ok dudes…let me settle one thing for you..i've seen an M6 on the roads before and when it was going downhill i tell u , even walking past the car just gives u the tension as if you're in it! it's a car you want to be in.

Yes it initially looks ugly but when it strides past you on the street, you'll easily gobble and eat your words up again.

To put it straight, i'd call this call a girl who isn't photogenic but pretty in the flesh…=)

I think aerodynamically, the M6 has a definite advantage. The exhaust wails produced by the M5 and M6 are completely different. The M5 sounds really whiny when it touches around 5-8 thousand RPMS while the M6 is a really mean grunt.

The M6 is definitely an awesome car. I stood next to a 6 series and couldnt believe the size of the rims, let alone the size of the M6's. I would even cringe at the beautiful sound of the Skyline GT-Rs 6 throttle bodies but this has 10!!
