The BMW M Series Convertible


The M6 Convertible is an expressive vehicle. Every detail speaks volumes about power, about grace and about the exhilaration of open-top driving. The spacious cabin; the wide, low body; the purposeful stance: each element radiates pure M performance. The characteristic side air vents cite the legendary BMW 507. And inside the stylish cabin, the standard M Sports seats promise uncompromising driving pleasure.

M6 convertible derives power from a standard 5.0-litre V-10 engine, which produces 507bhp @ 7750 rpm and 520 Nm of torque @6100 rpm. This convertible goes from 0-100 km per hour in 4.8 seconds and the engine performs with out any hesitation.

The interior relishes in its sport and powerful appearance with the wheel base of 2,781mm, which is the same as M6 coupe. This convertible gives an elegant and luxurious look with its most striking feature of automatic top that opens quickly and silently so that you can enjoy the experience of open air driving.

The headlights automatically dip if they detect oncoming traffic at night, the light from the reflector on a bicycle ahead, or street lights. Inside the M6 is sober, all black, with black leather seats and a carbon-fiber effect dashboard. The car has the attitude to rule the road, drive it to know it!

BMW has also set an assembly line for its 3 and 5 series. Its sports utility vehicles (SUV) X3 and X5 are imported as CBUs (Completely Built Units) route and sold at around Rs 41 Lakh to Rs 79 Lakh due to high import duty. With the new assembly line, the 3 and 5 series has seen a price drop by almost 40%. Even as it set a target of 1000 units in 2007, BMW sold 1387 units.

This year, BMW is targeting a sale of 2000 units and it has already sold 800 units. "Our expansion of dealerships across cities has fastened our pace of growth in the country," said a spokesperson for BMW. Currently BMW enjoys 9 dealerships in India.
