I bought this car used, with 25,000 miles on it, four years ago. Now it has 88,000 miles and I was considering trading it in for something a little more practical (more seating) but I just can't let it go. Instead of getting a new X3 or X5 I'll just have to settle for a used one. I want to slow down the mileage on this one. This car has given me no trouble but several years of wonderful driving enjoyment. It is definitely a driver's car. The B & O sound system is incredible. I regularly get compliments from strangers about how beautiful it is. I gave my colleague a ride to pick up his 2015 Porsche 911 at the dealer and he was impressed with how nice it rode and quiet it was compared to his car. I live in the country and commute 80 miles round trip 2-3 days per week. I often avoid the freeway so that I can drive the whole way on the back roads. The only drawback, the back seat is really only a fancy place to put stuff. Nobody really fits back there. If you don't need more than two seats, this is an awesome car for handling, speed, comfort, sound and it's averaging 23 mpg!
Fun to drive but burns oil and idles rough

I brought a brand new factory ordered 2012 650i 8 speed automatic with heads up display and drivers assist package and LED headlights-sport packaged 20 inch rims with manufacture date 11/2011. Fun to drive with nice design in/out until the low oil level indicator warning came on at 3248 odometer miles. Classic BMW dealership where I bought the car told me it was normal even though the car had short lived 1-2 sec of clanking noice on cold start and rough idle, evident with bottle water in cup holder. Dealership put one quart of oil. 3200 miles later I am low on oil again. Dealership put another quart of oil. Again I am back for 3rd quart of oil at 2794 miles later with 9610 odometer miles!

These cars are incredible! I could stop the review right there with a high degree of accuracy but you should be fair-warned: The BMW 6, now 8, series convertible is like a drug. You wake up craving to drive it. You will seek out and find reasons to get in this car. Walking up to it is like seeing your best friend knowing that all of your best memories in life are with this one. Right here! I have to admit, initially, when I saw the changes from the smooth and sexy lines of the 2004-2011 I was a little hesitant. The 2012 has a more commanding stance that grows on you. The car stands at attention and welcomes you with a quick dip of the air-tight window as you open the door. The massaging seat wraps around you as you settle in to wake the 400 wild horses under the hood! Your body and soul just connected with a machine that could spark jealously in the most loyal living companions! Let them know you love them too but stop there and bite your tongue and, I cannot stress enough, do-not let it slip and say “ almost as much as I love this BMW.” That may or may not have been the icing on the cake of my first BMW 6-Series and former marriage. Those are separate reviews… Yesterday, my 650ci, x-drive convertible just hit 96,000 miles! Not one issue outside of routine maintenance. Like any car, if you care for it properly, it will care for you. The only problem with these ( “ oh. Hi little one series, hello 2,3 and 4 series. *yawn.* Good morning 5-series,”) is there are simply not enough to go around! If you are reading these reviews, you may be lucky enough to have one actually available near you! STOP reading the reviews and go buy the nearest one that fits your budget! Pay what they’re asking. This is not some boring commuter car. This is a classic BMW! An asset that will make you feel ALIVE again! Of the way too many options to list, my all time favorite is the presentation of the top retracting and securing! It is an event that has people stop in their tracks like watching fireworks on the 4th of July! This car is simply amazing. Own the Road. When the wish of being the proud owner of a 6-Series BMW convertible comes true. Push your limits and wish for a longer commute!👍🏼👍🏼

The 2012 BMW 650i is UNSAFE to drive in a thunderstorm.

The 2012 BMW 650i is UNSAFE to drive in a thunderstorm. I was driving North on Interstate 95 in the left lane at approximately 70 mph when I observed lightning strike about 200 feet ahead of me and to the right of the road. Almost all electrical functionality ceased operation immediately, including the engine and the power steering. Dozens of cars closer to the lightning than me were unaffected. The car has been in the BMW repair shop since July 22, 2011 (53 days and counting). Lightning did NOT strike the car. I observed and heard only one flash and thunderclap. The cloth convertible top is in pristine condition.
