Hello all
Just wanted to introduce myself. I am about to purchase a 2015 640 gc. Anything I should know about? It's a cpo with 39k. Msport xdrive for $39500. Should be picking her up this weekend. I am coming from a 2011 f10 msport and love beemers. I picked up a bunch of info from the f10 forum and am looking forward to sharing and receiving info from you guys.

hmm interesting. You'll feel the interior will be a major upgrade over the F10. But overall driving feeling will probably be the same as you're sticking to basically the same engine. Obviously the 6 GC is a stupid gorgeous looking car, so that's a major upgrade.
Congrats and enjoy. Given the same motor and transmission, and familiarity with BMW's F generation cars, you shouldn't expect anything different than from you F10 experience.

Plus I was more generally saying the ownership experience would be the same in terms of cost, reliability, familiarity with servicing etc

Thanks fellas. I appreciate the welcome. The only reason I picked the 640 over the 650 is because I plan on keeping her for at least the next 5 years and Ive heard from a few BMW mechanics at the dealership that they still havent gotten the 8 cylinders right yet, and that there are still issues that need to be tweaked and to go 640 or m6 in regards to bulletproof motors. The M6 is out of my budget.

Personally I have not tried the 640 but have had my F06 for just over a month now. Coming from E92 and F32 (the latter which I still drive) it's night and day difference in many respects. I love everything thus far and cannot find it any defects! 2nd thought I have one major letdown: it doesn't feature a power trunk!!
For the rest really my 1-month impression is great and I love every inch of it, inside and outside both when looking at it as well as while driving it. |
