2004 BMW 6 Series 645Ci 2dr Convertible (4.4L 8cyl 6M)
Review
This is a magnificent car, providing more niche-fillers than any other car on the market: a true sports car, with excellent speed and handling, top luxury, eye-catching look, available with a stick, and a back seat and trunk that are actually useful. However, the alloy wheels are so soft I'm on my my third set, and despite their advertising, BMW will do anything to avoid having the warranty cover anything more than the usual minor issues. The software on the care is unreliable too and the car is a gas hog. Even so, I love it, but it's hard to accept being treated poorly by BMW given the nature of their advertising and the cost of this car.

2004 BMW 6 Series 645Ci 2dr Coupe (4.4L 8cyl 6M)
Review
The 645 is truly "sport" luxury. Not nimble and quick but muscular and responsive. The extra horses of the 650 should help. The iDrive is not difficult...if you can't figure it out you most likely can't afford the car anyway!
Favorite Features
The shark look is truly the most attractive feature. One of the most attractive autos I've ever owned.
Suggested Improvements
The steering wheel's a little thick with the full padding.

2004 BMW 6 Series 645Ci 2dr Coupe (4.4L 8cyl 6M)
Review
I would choose BMWs over Mercedes and other equivalent cars. Having said that only cars I would drool over this one are BMW M5 and M6. I got this car with full option and everything ranging from parking distance control to cold weather packages, all very useful. If you hear people complaining about the BMW iDrive system, don't believe them. Unless you are very old- fashioned and don't know how to use a computer, you won't have a problem with the iDrive function. This car has a surprisingly big trunk and back seats are plenty for people under six feet tall. This car drives like a Porsche 911 but it can also be driven like a luxury sedan so it's lot more practical for everyday use.
Favorite Features
Navigation system is awesome and it allows you to go anywhere without getting lost. Also the engine makes a beautiful growling noise when you accelerate fast kinda like a GT muscle car but unique in it's own way.
Suggested Improvements
The back seat is not foldable for a trunk access it should fold down. The sun roof only tilts up and it should be redesigned so it actually slides opens all the way. Back seat is too upright and this should be less steeper. There should be only one model for this car which is a hardtop convertible.

Not an M6, but it is pretty....

2004 BMW 6 Series 645Ci 2dr Convertible (4.4L 8cyl 6M)
Review
The vehicle handles wonderfully and weight is perfect. One of the best 2 door convertible on the market... The Aston Martin Convertible DB9 is the only thing that can touch it...
Favorite Features
The nineteen inch wheels and the convertible give this sports car awesome peace of mind on the road... You are able to enjoy the sun while driving 90 miles per hour...
Suggested Improvements
I have a manual and I believe there should be a shorter gear ratio... The brakes shold be a little bigger and the torque could be a little higher with 50 additional horsepower...

Review
Best vehicle I've ever owned. This one has it all: performance, sporty, luxury. Great combination of mastering the road and pampering the driver. I'll probably get another one when my lease is up. This one turns heads and gets lots of compliments all the time - and is still exclusive enough that I rarely see another one on the road.

2004 BMW 6 Series 645Ci 2dr Coupe (4.4L 8cyl 6M)
Review
SMG makes the car hard to drive smoothly. Active steering feels awkward and unnatural. Otherwise the car is a terrific driver. I can live with the iDrive. I think there is a little dodge stratus in the back. It makes the car look cheap honestly. I never quite got used to the awful trunk. The car seems confused on whether to ape porsche or dodge.The front is unique, not really attractive but not particularly ugly either. Saddle up behind the seat, and the outside won't matter any more.
Favorite Features
This is really the ultimate drivingmachine! Ditch Active steering and SMG.

Whats up with all the techno-wizardry? Not all of us like this. I have bought bimmers for years and the electronics are always the achille's heel. All the reliability problems seem to trace their lineage to overzealous electronics.

Talk about a fun car to drive! I don't get very excited about driving cars, but when I got behind the wheel in a test drive, I immediately knew there was no other. Now that I have the car, I don't want to stop driving it.

If you like to drive you'll love to drive this car. I've owned five convertibles, my last being an SL500, and none of them comes close to the "ultimate" driving experience. I can wait to get it out wesr with no speed limits! It is very comfortable to ride in, which my wife really appreciates. A great automobile.
