That's a mistake on BMW's behalf, there's only this steering wheel: http://www.6post.com/goodiesforyou/m...y/IMG_8463.jpg

I am NOT a convertible guy (can only think of handful I actually like and would own), however, I'd really have to think about which car I'd get (coupe or vert), if I was looking for a new 6er. The new 6er is such a beautiful, yet badass looking car. I may have to get rid of something and pick one of these up.

A big fancy cabriolet is an attention getting car for sure. Only an exotic draws more stares.

Hahahaha! It's really not a bad looking steering wheel. That's funny that BMW made the mistake of putting the wrong steering wheel in on a press car.

They did a really nice job on the interior. It again feels like a cockpit. (driver centric)

I prefer coupe by far but that looks great. San Marino Blue is amazing, def one of the best colours BMW offer right now. I'd love to see it on the F10 M5.
