2008 BMW 6 Series

Overview The 2008 6 Series is a carryover from 2007. This 2-door, 4-passenger, rear-wheel-drive luxury sports car is available in two trims: 650i Coupe and 650i Convertible. Marked by classic BMW flair, sculpted sleek exteriors, detailed interiors, outstanding performance, brilliant handling, and rock-solid stability, the 6 Series enjoy true cult status. BMW’s Full Maintenance Program covers all factory-recommended maintenance for 4 years or 50,000 miles, whichever comes first. The Full Maintenance Program includes items that need replacement provided wear and tear exceeds BMW specifications. Engine and Performance The 6 Series is equipped with a standard 4.8-liter, V-8, 360-horsepower engine for both its trims. The 650i Coupe achieves 17-mpg in the city and 24-mpg on the highway. The 650i Convertible achieves 16-mpg in the city and 22-mpg on the highway. A 6-speed manual transmission with overdrive is standard and a 6-speed automatic transmission with overdrive is optional on both trims. Some standard features include BMW's Dynamic Drive Control that adjusts suspension, throttle, and SMT/automatic-transmission settings for sportier response. BMW's Active Steering, designed to quicken low-speed steering response, is also available as an option. Build and Styling The 650i BMW coupe has a rich and vibrant quality to its sculpted profile. The BMW 650i coupe and convertible offer a combination of comfort, luxury, and sporty performance; technical wizardry aids in the ease of operation. Convertibles get a power soft top and a heated glass rear window. For buyers who appreciate customization, the 6 Series comes fully loaded with a luxurious cockpit, premium leather upholstery, wood trimmings, dual-zone automatic climate control, adaptive headlights, Bluetooth interface, BMW's i-Drive, and a DVD-based, GPS navigation system. All models have an ABS, a traction/anti-skid control, BMW's Active Roll Stabilization, and BMW's Dynamic Drive Control. Front-side airbags and front-knee airbags are standard; coupes add head-protection tubular side airbags.
