Soft tops look better on cars with a coupe variant. While hardtops are for cars without them and were designed solely as hard tops. Example: 3er convertible looks stupid. Z4 looks amazing. SL Mercedes looks amazing. SLS convertible will be soft top. Finally the cherry on the cake, Bentley and Rolls-Royce use soft tops and those are the classiest cars money can buy. Hard top on the 6er would look stupid. |

Based on the 6 series discussion by BMW - the hardtop's lines arent as sexy as the soft top -- BMW says in the future they may take the 3 series vert back to a soft top because its not 'sexy' enough.

For cars with 4 seats a softtop is alot better, much more classy. Why then do the Bentley Continental GTC, Aston Martin DB9 Volant have softtop? For cars with 2 seats a hardtop is very nice, like Z4 and SLK, eventhough I would like a Z4 Coupé(-ONLY). My favorite top for two seater however is Tagra, like the Porsche Carrera GT, Toyota Supra and such.

I like the look of the 3-series E93. I would prefer a hardtop over a softtop on the M6. Yes, it adds weight, but it would a trade off I'd be willing to make. I suspect the problem is the relative size of the top on the new 6 compared to the truck space. To make a hard top fit they trunk would have to be made larger, and the car (which is already quite large) would need to be even larger.
