2012 BMW M6 – Rendering Speculations

These 3D computer generated images (CGI) were created by graphics artist Guillaume Mouton in an attempt to visualize the next-generation BMW 6-Series Coupe and in particular, the top-notch M6 model. Mouton seems to have blended the shape of the long gone 8-Series Coupe with elements from the current 6-Series and the 4door CS Concept. Overall, not bad at all but we would have preferred a totally different design for the front-end, one that wouldn’t remind us of the current 6er. -More pics after the jump

Pimp My BMW 6-Series the Lithuanian Way

If this guy’s main goal was to stand out of the crowd, then he definitely succeeded in his purpose. Spotted somewhere in Lithuania, the totally pimped out BMW 6-Series has been bloated with add-ons that cover nearly every inch of the body along with humongous 26-inch (!!!) alloy wheels wrapped in 305/30 tires. We must say though that the new headlights look so much better than the original ones.

Moreover, the Lithuanian bimmer has also been pimped inside as the whole cabin is covered in some sort of glitzy suede trim. More pictures of the… understated BMW 6-Series along with a short video right after the jump. -Continued

AC Schnitzer BMW 6-Series: New Sport Pack, Including Upgrade for Diesel Version

The introduction of the subtlety revised BMW 6-Series last summer prompted AC Schnitzer to update its sport package for the Bavarian Coupe. The German tuning firm’s bodykit for the 2008 6-Series includes a rear spoiler with an integrated brake light, new style side skirts, a revised version of AC’s “bunny-tooth” shaped lower air-intake (we don’t know why AC insists on using it) and a new rear skirt. The 6-Series Coupe’s looks are complemented by new 20-inch alloy rims and a new sports rear silencer with chromed tailpipes.

In terms of mechanical upgrades apart from the sport suspension and the high-performance brake system, AC Schnitzer has developed a sport kit for the first diesel version of the 6-Series, the 635d. With AC Schnitzer’s kit, the ACS6 3.5d’s 3.0-liter, twin-turbocharged straight six develops 310 HP and 680 Nm or 501 lbs/ft of toque instead of 286 HP and 580 Nm.

As for the 650i, thanks to a series of upgrades, power is rises from 367 HP to a 411 HP. At the same time, driving performance improves with the ASC6’s top speed increased by 35 km/h or 21 MPH, to 285 km/h or 177 MPH. –More images after the jump
