2014 BMW M6 Gran Coupe Pricing Guide. Starts at $113,000. Manual Transmission Option - Page 2 - 6Post.com | BMW 6-Series Forum

VintageFerrari · 01-30-2013, 06:01 PM

For me, it's extremely disappointing that the 2NK M Carbon Ceramic brakes are NOT available with the gorgeous standard Doublespoke Style 433 M wheels.

This is most likely a signal that the Manual will be added to the option sheet of the coupe and convertible for the 2014 model year.

I don't know how this can be considering the press car has both 2NK and 2PS equipment. The requisite for ordering 2NK with 2NZ wheels might be for the F12/13 since they come with the 19" 344M wheels which will NOT clear the CCB's.

Very nice!!!

Sorry to rain on the parade but with more than 2 tons and so loaded with electronic, I don't think the M6 is an enthusiast car anymore. It is a fantastic car, no question asked but it is not longer connected as M-cars used to be (a proper sport car with 4 doors) as an enthusiast , I would not look at that car if I had $130,000 to burn

F12 M6 343M wheels:

Also, 9250 for CCB's with sliding single piston binders in the rear. You would think BMW would throw in a fixed 2-pot at least for close to 10K.

Same BMW shitty brakes. AMG CLS63 please...

Manual? Shocker...but happy nonetheless

Seems like cars that were $80k are now at the $120k+ mark!

No surprise here.

Its coming - March production for Coupe and Cab. Its a 7 speed manual unlike the 6 speed that comes in the M5.

Listening? Right now anyone that wants a high performance manual transmission sedan only has one choice and its BMW. Even if they only sell 15%, thats 15% they would not have had before. I also think that its similar to the manual 7MT in the 991 hence it uses the same "linkages" as DCT so not a lot of remapping but being a MT driver I am very curious to see how this does in the market place.

Correct - BMW Sales Manager also confirmed.

Let me finally add that as a MT driver this is massive news. This is a huge risk and investment by BMW. Everyone is turning their backs on MT and they make this type of move - big statement of their engineering prowess! Offering multiple transmission options in what can be seen as maybe 2% of all cars sold at BMW (thats what ///M makes up) is remarkable. Respect and Kudos to BMW and ///M.

I hope to make this my 4th manual ///M. Guys the fact that people that have $100k + have this option is incredible. You can't get a manual from the competition any more. What a great option to give the buyer.

MSPORTWORLD · 01-31-2013, 11:12 AM

Wow this car cost's so much money!

rmani · 01-31-2013, 01:29 PM

a real manual. bravo bmw!

///M1 · 01-31-2013, 01:56 PM

Kuddos to BMW for bringing the manual to the M6 GC, what a gorgeous car! Had my eyes on the F10 M5 manual but this one takes the beauty prize for sure. Would take it over the RS 7 (now available in the US) and CLS 63 any day of the week, and over the ugly Quasimodo-styled Panamera twice on Sunday!

Anyone know if this will be the re-worked 7-spd manual as rumored?

Also, what is the weight relative to the M5, hoping it is a bit less given the CF roof but may be a wet dream....

F06 M6 is 5 kg heavier than the F10 M5.

Dual clutch automatics simply blow manual transmissions away. (Flame retardant suit on...)

Ya everyone scream for a manual and then end up buying the DCT.

MiamiSixer · 02-01-2013, 12:58 AM

$9,250.00 for ceramic brakes?? I'm guessing the will be covered under maintenance.

If my 18 year experience with BMW is as good as I think, I'll bet my car with some Motul 600 brake fluid will crush the ceramics after a few laps in a track. Not worth it unless you get your money for nothing.

Gotta agree. The M line up is slowly transforming into a fashion statement rather than retaining its historical function as a race division(not saying that's a bad thing). $130k would put it in competition of some Aston Martins, Maserati, Porsches, and AMGs. I don't believe the M6 would be the top choice for many as it does not really excel in sports or luxury.

I want one!!!! How exciting!!

stealth.pilot · 02-02-2013, 07:29 PM

This car specified to the same as my M5 yields an MSRP of $132,375, vs. an MSRP of $112,750 on my M5.
