BMW has been keen to help for some time now, first with the 5 Series Gran
Turismo and now with its 6 Series-branded replacement. But those looking for an
even sportier take on the tall-roofed oddity may be interested in these new M
Performance Parts.
Launching in November together with the new 6-Series
GT, the components include everything from exhaust upgrades to sporty visual
enhancements inside and out. The exhaust silencer (offered for both the 630i
and 640i models) is made of stainless steel and comes with either a round or
trapezoidal tip in chrome or carbon fiber, complete with M logos.
21-inch alloys are on offer to house upgraded brakes
with four-piston red calipers and ventilated discs, while a gloss black grille
gives the vehicle a more aggressive look. Of course that's not the extent of
the visual upgrades, which also include carbon-fiber mirror caps, a Frozen
Black matte wrap, and matte black and gray trim stripes.
For the interior, there's Alcantara grip
surfaces, a sportier steering wheel finished in silver-stitched Nappa leather
with a red strip at 12, shift paddles for the eight-speed automatic
transmission even special floor mats – all of which is aimed at making you
forget just how unusual that roofline is. But BMW has proven particularly adept
at that feat.
