New BMW M6 Gran Coupe 2015 review - AutoExpress

The updates to the BMW 6 Series extend right across the board affecting all trim levels and models including M cars like the M6 Gran Coupe . So there are the same hard-to spot changes to the front and rear bumpers, new door mirrors and full LED... Inside you now get some black trim on the centre console, a revised iDrive infotainment screen and BMW’s ConnectedDrive as standard. Unlike the normal 6 Gran Coupe though, the M6 doesn’t get digital dials but retains the M-branded analogue ones. BMW took the 6 Series Coupe and made it less sporty by adding some rear doors before its M division set about making it even more sporty with bespoke suspension, brakes, differential, gearbox and of course that twin turbo 4. 4-litre V8. It seems... As before, the M6 Gran Coupe produces 562bhp and 680NM of torque that is available from just 1,500rpm. For most of the time ‘Comfort’ is the best mode as it gives the M6 a welcome dose of usability, but we can’t help but feel the engine mode should be in ‘Sport’ to give proper M-like aural thrills.
