| Description |
| The luxurious BMW 645Ci coupe is stunning and a much more engaging drive compared to the BMW 8 Series. When compared with other convertible vehicles in production the 645Ci convertible is unmatched. |

The BMW 6 Series has a V8 engine and its drive was designed as its intended looks guarantee with this in mind it does not fail to please.
The BMW 6 Series is a fairly big and heavy car but because the chassis is so well made it handles bends and turns like a light sports car. The 6 Series has a traction control system that can be switched off along with other technology for a bit of fun, but with it switched on, the car is very well behaved and complements the driver.
The interior of the BMW 6 Series is well thought out with comfortable seats a cockpit that is instinctive with a well applied scientific design and an elegant cabin. The rear seats sit two people with lots of space and there is plenty of room for luggage.
The roof of the 6 Series is a fabric one but it is so well fitted that it insulates perfectly and is almost as good as a regular hard top roof. The car has a slight shake on rough surfaces but when the roof is down the noise of the V8 engine is magnificent.
When it comes to price the BMW 6 Series is not a cheap buy, but when you compare it to other cars in its class all the way up to the Bentley Continental GT it is unsurpassable. |
