Always loved that shade of blue on BMW's.

The 6 gran coupe is insanely beautiful, inside and out. Unfortunately that's not the only thing about it that is insane. Eighty five (or more) thousand? Ouch.

You wonder -- for those considering a 4 Series Gran Coupe; what about a more versatile 3-Series GT?

@lfsracer79 8 жыл бұрын

4:31 They got 28.6 mpg in the 435i and only 19.5 mpg in the 640i. Obviously they weren't driven similarly...

Possibly, but the 6 weighs more than the four, and he did mention the turbos work harder in the 6 than the 4--also equaling more fuel consumption.

That's a nice silver Alpina B6 you've got there. I was under the impression Alpina wasn't offering cars in the US, or was I wrong?

I believe they do sell their 6 and 7 series models here.

Essentially it is a 5 door/ hatchback. Hatchback is or was a bad word or represents low rent cars. I love hatchbacks for It’s practicality

Lambs want a 440 with a manual transmission. One of us can fit nicely in that hatch.

So the 3 series GT became the 4 series Gran Coupe?

+Sergio B Nope. BMW offers both.

So the 640 with 315 horsepower does 0-60 in 5.3, and completes the quartee mile in 13.8. The 650i 2 door with 450 horsepower does it in 5.1 seconds, and 13.5 (as tested by them in 2012). One car has 315hp while the other has 450hp, whils they weigh pretty much the same. What is up with this?

@Dogasus 5 жыл бұрын

that means the 640i is a better buy. Extra 135 HP for only a 0.2 sec quicker 0-60 ? i'd stick w the 40i

@gowwar491 3 жыл бұрын

The 640 is much lighter

@boy_hooya2013 3 жыл бұрын

The 650i 0-60 in 4.2 and 1/4 mile in 12.5

@TimJoseph08031990 8 жыл бұрын

Not to mention over $100,000 waste of plastic luxury that will break down and cost an arm and a leg to repair. BMWs are endless money pit vehicles.

@mikelee7069 8 жыл бұрын

+Tim Joseph theres nothing really plastic or pleather in the 6 series cars. everything is wrapped in leather, doors, center console, dash, roof is alcantara, etc. its really a nice interior.

***** I don't have the CR-V anymore. I have the 2014 Subaru Forester Touring with EyeSight. It's better than the CR-V with Symmetrical AWD. I also don't have oil consumption issues, since I don't put a lot of miles on it.
