EDITORS' RATINGS OVERALL SCORE:

RATING Overall

Excellent driving dynamics are coupled with a comfortable, sporty interior and top-notch build quality. If the exterior styling agrees with you, the BMW 6 Series is a contender.

DETAILED EDITORS' RATINGS

RATING Dynamics

Handling and steering are precise. The V8 engine provides more than adequate thrust. And it can be paired with a manual.

RATING Comfort

The seats are comfortable and can be adjusted to fit a wide range of drivers. The 6 Series, while firm, rides smoother than expected.

RATING Function

Most of the primary controls are logically placed and easy to use. iDrive, however, takes time to learn and isn't well suited for driver use when underway. The automatic or true manual gearboxes available here are much easier to live with than the DSG transmission found in the M6.

RATING Design/Build Quality

Segment-leading build quality. Polarizing exterior styling.

DETAILED PROFILE:

Image Enhancer

Coupe and convertible available in the BMW 6 Series' line-up.

High Performer

Powerful, fun to drive.

Luxurious

Sporty, yet comfortable interior.
