Stunning 2013 M6 Coupe in Brilliant White Individual at 2012 Auto China Beijing

The 2013 BMW M6 Coupe (F13) (official info thread) has also made an appearance at the 2012 Auto China show in Beijing, in a stunning Brilliant White Metallic Individual exterior with Opal White Individual leather interior and Piano Black Gloss trim. Until now, the F13 M6 coupe has only been shown in Sakhir Orange at the Geneva and New York auto shows.

The M6 coupe's carbon fiber roof looks gorgeous contrasting against the pearly Brilliant White metallic paint. It is said (per our NYIAS interview) to save approximately 10 pounds compared to a steel roof and more than that versus a sunroof. Compared to the F10 M5, the M6 coupe is a little more sporty in terms of handling by the design of the front and rear axle and the rigid connection to the car body. Other differences include a 4.5" shorter wheelbase on the M6, 100 pounds lighter for the M6 coupe (compared to M5), and the carbon fiber roof brings the center of gravity down on the M6 coupe. Both the coupe and the convertible are powered by the 560hp 4.4-litre TwinPower Turbo V8 "S63" engine and mated to a 7-speed double clutch transmission.

The 2012 M6 Convertible (F12) will be the first new M6 model to hit US showroom floors in June and the 2013 M6 Coupe (F13) will follow in September. BMW has announced that the 2013 M6 Coupe and the 2012 M6 Convertible will be priced at $106,995 and $113,995 respectively (see pricing announcement). Preliminary US M6 options/equipment information has been released previously.

2012 M6 convertible orders may already be submitted. The M6 coupe ordering guides should be available soon, as well as the opening of the M6 coupe order bank.
