But funny thing, the US website actually shows this one as the M-sport steering wheel! I thought this is for the M6?!? Or did they upgrade it? Anyone?!??

The 2nd one is the M sport steering wheel. The M sport's X5, 6 series 5 series all include the same steering wheels as M6 now

Both of those are shown in a 3 series. The second one is the newer look one. The first one is similar but different than the old M steering wheel on the 6.

It is part of the M Sport Edition, but not all of them had it until officially July 2013 production (but rumor has it some June cars had this steering wheel early.)

So you don't really drive an M6 Gran Coupe?
Promise when you get that lovely 640 MSport, you won't stick M6 badges on the rear?

Promise?

SpokenHands,
Don't worry, I WOULD NEVER DO THAT, NEVER! FYI, I was all set on getting the M6, but for various reasons, have decided to "settle" with the 640 M Edition. I was a bit dismayed initially after my decision, but I am confident I will be extremely happy driving a 640 M Edition to work everyday I can't wait to get mine!!!

It obviously wont perform like an M6 but it is certainly not underpowered. Enjoy!
