Hello from Austria

Hello guys,
I am following this forum already for a while and since I own a 2012 640d GC for a couple of months, itīs time to say hello !
My name is Peter and I am living in Austria ...
There are pretty cool 6 series here, but up to now I havenīt seen any Havanna Brown so far .. well here is mine.

Summer setup (20" Styling 464 , 15mm spacers at rear):











Interior:











Winter setup (19" Breyton wheels):











Mods:

Not too much at the moment minor things interior ...
- pedal pads
- additional amp and 12" subwoofer in trunk .. actually using a free air chassis (infinite baffle), but will be replaced by an ARC Audio 12 in closed box ..
- steering wheel upholstered (thicker, champagne color stitching)







Mods in progress:
- add AC Schnitzer front spoiler lip > done
- add trunk spoiler (OEM style) > done


Mods I am thinking about ...
- replace interior strips
- exchange roof liner ( I like to have the Alcantara version ), but I am not sure if the roof liner can be exchanged without removing the windscreen

I am quite happy with this ride so far ... I got a complete new steering f.o.c. ... the only thing actually annoying is a creaking sound from drivers seat

I hope you like the pics ...
Regards
Peter

Welcome and that looks lovely with some great pictures
That's a few I've seen now that don't have the leather dash with stitching. I thought that was standard on the Six? Must be a option I'm guessing.

Hi, yes .. Havanna Brown is seldom .. but I love it, because it looks clean for a long time ... perfect for a daily driver.

The thing behind idrive screen is the mid tone and tweeter unit of the Bang&Olufsen High End Surround Sound System ... it deploys as soon as music is on. All the B&O speakers are illuminated, which looks pretty cool at night ... expensive but nice option ...

Hey guys,
last week I finally installed the AC Schnitzer front lip and an OEM style rear spoiler ...
I like the style so far

Only handy pics - better to come with summer wheels



















Next to come > exchange the standard interior strips with Individual Piano black strips

Yeah, you can see it's a 640d as the rev counter redlines at 5k rpm.

Tips are an aftermarket mod.

Any links for that lip? I also have a non M-sport model and didn't know anything like that was available.
