2017 BMW M6 – The Ultimate Grand Touring Coupe

2017 BMW M6 – The Ultimate Grand Touring Coupe

For today’s unboxing review we bring you the 2017 BMW M6. It’s an absolute beast thanks to its twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 with 560 hp and 500 lb-ft of torque. Remember, this comes from BMW’s in-house M high performance division. Those guys take absolutely zero shortcuts and owners expect nothing less. The original M6 coupe hit the market way back in 1983 and last until ’89. But it wasn’t until 2006 when the second generation arrived, and today the third gen is still on sale, having been released in 2012. Having been refreshed for 2015, the 2017 M6 is still a fully modern grand touring performance coupe in the greatest ways possible.

Oh, and did we mention that it’s pretty expensive? Well, it is. Base price: $113,700, but our car, packed with several (expensive) option packages came to a grand total of $124,410. Despite that six-figure price tag, the M6 coupe (and its convertible and four-door coupe siblings) have no trouble finding buyers. But the question is whether BMW, in the wake of ever increasing fuel regulations, can continue building the almighty M6 in the years ahead? What changes will have to be made in order to adapt the fourth gen model for the times? That all remains to be seen, but for now we should all rejoice in everything the M6 has to offer. Oh, and if you want a six-speed manual instead of a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox, BMW offers it has a no-cost option. We told you this car is awesome. Enjoy the review!
