2012 6-series Coupe M-Sport Package Spotted

2012 6-series Coupe M-Sport Package Spotted

The 6-series testing appears to be on a roll lately. Only yesterday we brought you the latest set of spyshots showing the F13 6-series Coupe almost fully unmasked. Following here is what appears to be the first look at the 6-series coupe with M-Sport package, courtesy of spyshots.nl. BMW did a pretty good job at masking the M-Sport front and rear bumpers. A closer look however reveals the more protruding/curved front bumper, bespoke M-Sport side skirts, and a different rear bumper. Don't be upset about the wheels as they aren't the final choice. It's still winter in Germany so this particular test car was fitted with wheels from BMW's part bin (style 238, currently available for the F07 and F01).

As if that wasn't enough spyshots.nl also has coverage of a 650i Coupe in Deep Sea Blue. Expect official information on the F13 6-series Coupe to come in February with the car hitting the market in Fall 2011. The M-Sport package most certainly won't be available before Spring 2012.

Well, we all know how the front will look. Like the verts one which a lot people actually like. All I can see on the rear is foil, foil, foil and another freaking piece of foil.

I'm not a big fan of the 6-Series, new or old. The new one's front end looks too pointy!

Certainly the car needs an M package. The new 6 looks ugly on the front.

For the price, why not get a M3 or a RS5 for that matter.

Let's not jump the gun here...these are just spy shots. Should be able to make a better assessment when it's fully revealed. Hope they change those exhaust tips though

I like the previous model, had an aggressive look. But this one looks tame

I'm beginning to really hate the European pedestrian hood requirements, all the cars' fronts look like Volvos- with Lexus headlights.

While some of thought that Chris Bangle didn't do a good job on the last BMW 6series coupe, it seems that it's getting better with years passed by. The things we see now are somewhat too cautious in some ways, while boring in others.

It looks like one HAPPY BMW with no teeth. Headlights are eye, two grills are nostrils, and wide gap is smiley face. So it seems like hillbilly (usually have no teeth) must have designed the front.
