I think it looks brilliant, a lot better than the E63.

Is it me, or does anyone else think 6 series have allways been well over priced new?

Compared to what you can get for the same money from Audi and Mercedes not really.

Wasn't a fan of the old 6-series, other than the M6, which seemed to suit it's looks, but...

The new one is LOVELY.

Interesting that in today's world of eco madness they have chosen to display a 650Ci on their bill board advertisments!

Wonder why they decided to go for a non metal topped convertible.

Presumably so the GT retains a decent boot. The quality of roof on the 6 series is awesome and yet you can still get a reasonable amount of gear in the boot with the roof down unlike say an M3. Factor in that the surface area on a 6 series roof is bigger and curvier then producing a metal roof that does not completley fill the boot when open is logistically impossible and adds further weight.

I actually think the rear look on the 6 with the buttresses is the best angle as well but appreciate that might not be the majority view

The TV advert for this car is terrible.

I think it will be a grower. I didn't like the E63 when it first came out... still bought one once it had matured for a few years.

I see they have excelled themselves with the colour choice...there are seven metallic colours of which two are shades of brown vomit

They have also found yet another way to xtend the options list "Ceramci Controls" for £385 which I take it is posh plastic ?!?! The profit margin on that must be about £380!
