640 gran coupe

[Deendog]

Afternoon
Thinking about one of these to replace 335d gt
Drive train should therefore be fairly similar (rwd aside)
Any other issues / foibles etc I should be aware of? Looking at a fairly low miles 2015 m sport
Cheers

Seat bases go, and it's >5m length, so doesn't fit in a standard garage.

I'm sure there are other things, but those are the ones I recall most.

If I didn't have a 7'er, a 6GC would be on the shortlist - IMO fantastic looking cars. (much better than the ordinary 2dr version).

2015+ should give you the 'better' dash (bigger info panel between the two main dials), but might not bring the led lights, as (iirc) they got de-contented back to the option list with the lci.

HUD is nice, ride is better on 19" rather than 20".

If I was to have another(mine was a Coupe) I would go 19", because the ride on the 20" with the standard run flats is really poor, I changed to non run flats but because the tyres are so low profile and wide I suffered three punctures annoyingly.

Mine used to suffer with a rattle under the passenger seat and I believe it's a common problem, and some suffer the same under the drivers seat as well, the engine in them is cracking but they're not as quick as the 335d though, as I found out after a little play with one!

Lovely cars, the interior is on a different level to any other bmw I've had, but (and there's always a but!) they are bloody huge, I dinged the rims several times accessing multi storey car parks, and they are pretty heavy so no back road shenanigans.
