BMW’s latest 6 series coupes are now out. Therefore, BMW is not wasting anytime putting journalists behind the wheels of these highly anticpated vehicles. It’s important to get the word out for fans to run out to dealers and place new orders. Huge capital investments go into the development of these vehicles that typically run a 6 year life cycle. A good return on investment is only right.

BIMMERTIMES spotted a team of journalists as they were carving some canyon roads near San Pedro California. The lead vehicle was a blue 2013 BMW M6 Convertible sporting a contrasting black soft-top, with a smirking driver behind the wheel. Followed by a black 650i convertible, then an alpine white M6 convertible.

An ML320 had gotten between the wolf-pack somehow at an intersection. While the rest of the group contained a BMW 750Li, chased by a 750i then an inline 6 cylinder 640i coupe. Forced induction high-revving 4.4-litre V8 TwinPower Turbo V8 in the M6 was emitting an amazing sound track as the car accelerated in the stretch then as the new 7-speed M-DCT transmission blipped on the downshift as it approached a slow right hand corner. These models along with the BMW M5 are now available at US-dealerships.
