640i Grand Coupe WTF???

[Massimo]

Seriously what the fuck is going on at BMW, isn't the 6 series supposed to be the coupe version of the 5 series? So why the fuck make a 6 series sedan?

Not to mention it is long as a 7 series.

BMW engineering division gets bored sometimes. And what makes you think the 6er is a coupe 5er?

It's not a sedan, its a four door coupe.

That's how they market it, but technically it isn't.

Well that fucked up there. The name completely contradicts its self.

grand (grnd)

At least they got this part right

My boss has been driving one of those for a few months now. 119,000 euros! his is all ///M teched out though. looks kind mean and is luxury pure for a BMW.


the badging and cars are all becoming more and more like the Audi/VW group. M4 for example WTF???

I hate working on the new F series car, it is almost like working on a completely different brand of car.

The six died with the last e24 in 1989. Ever since then, all they've been is e31s....but not even that cool. The e61 was an abomination of grand coupes....and the trend continues.
