![]() It is nice to control the passenger side with the push of a button if I'm in the car alone.

Your car is a piece of jewelry, the new 6-series is the most beautiful BMW, but I need the back seat a few years more. So the next time it becomes 640D Xdrive. Good luck with your 650i Xdrive.

I've been wondering the same thing. I don't mess with it - toggle switch does it for me!

It was Ferrari who first implemented the paddle shift of F1 cars into their sports cars. Now you get the paddle even on a BMW 120d.... I guess if you are used to (sport)shift on the center console you can keep this habit, without trying to simulate a race driver ![]()

First let me congragulate you on the wonderful car that you have.
I just received my 640i last week and was wondering if the M sport package would look good on my vermillion red 6er since the middle segment of the rear bumper comes in black which I find unattractive and might have to paint it. I really need some feedback or maybe some pics before I spend over 10,000$ on it ( yeah it's really expensive where I live ). |

I agree. I don't think M Sport is available in Vermillion Red. I don't think I'd spend that kind of money on it. The non-M looks really good, so I'd keep my $10 grand and enjoy the car as is.

My M3 rims are also a pain, similar to the 373Ms with a sort of twin spoke design. Looks like the 356s on the 6er won't be so bad.
It's a lot of work, even worse than cleaning them, but I suggest applying Wheel Wax to your rims. It makes subsequent cleaning easier. |

Thanks. I've been meaning to do that but haven't had the time to pull them all off, clean them, and wax. I'm doing twice-weekly cleanings of my car to keep the Carbon Black looking good (waaay too much pollen right now), but I'm just doing the wheels once a week. They could probably go a little longer than that, but I'm just trying to keep them pristine until I can get the wax on them.
