New F06 gran coupe owner

So after owning the 535d f11 with such an awsome engine i just had to be sure
To have the same engine again, unfortunately the new 5 series doesnt come as a 535d
But not to worry as the superb looks of the gran coupe coupled with the mighty twin turbo engine spurned me on my search for a gran coupe.

After months of searching i found a stunning sonic speed blue with m sport plus pack
Im now really happy to be with you guys 😀

Nice! Are those stock two-tone 373 wheels? I like those, I've never seen them before.

I could be mistaken but they look to me to be the M 703 double spoke wheels available on the 2017 models and beyond.

No, reverse camera has always been an option and this goes for all F06, F12 and F13 series models, at least in Europe. However if I remember correctly as of this year on the new 6-series GT this is now standard thus included.

Interesting in the USA yes (I didn't know), but not in Europe (example is from the BMW.de German catalogue)

I actually like them a lot - the M703 wheels. In case I cannot retrofit the original M6 wheels (M433) on mine the M703 may be a nice alternative.

It's a nice retrofit to do and I actually think this should always be standard on such a premium car model. BMW have an original retrofit for it but many in BMW specialized generic garages should be able to do it especially considering the are instructions available (EBA from BMW).

awsomebmw Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to BMW 6er. There is a BIG fridge on the back porch with anything you can think of in it...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. Make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom's, wives', husbands, girlfriends and boyfriends here don't care....and take it easy

oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!!
