Saw the new six convertible

[Initial D.oug]

Took a look at the 6er convertible at Vancouver Auto on one of my many trips there today. Not bad in person I guess. Finally got the idea of its dimensions. The cloth top looks real nice too with the drop down rear window. So, all in all, I guess I'm for it.

Is it just me, or are all these new Bimmers big, bulky cars?

bout the same size as the original 6. It's prettty low too. I dunno, dammnit it's growing on me.

I want to go see it. The rear glass window is a neat idea. I am starting to see more E60 5 series on the road and I think the design is starting to grow on me. Especially the rear, I think the back end has a real aggressive look to it. Unfortunately the front end doesn't match the rear. To me the front looks too flat and wide, and worse it looks like a Pontiac. It would be neat to see a new 6 and the old 6 side by side.

Has anyone seen the black E24 M6 around town? With the large 5 spoke wheels? I pulled up beside it the other day and man is it nice. :thumbs:

Did you say hi to the guy or anything? I think the grill on the X3 is too wide and ugly, saw one today...

The guy from tv? I remeber he came out to a couple bimmer events and brought along his nice M6. Wonder if he still has it.

I've seen the black M6 a couple of times, as well as a mint Alpine one with BBS RS wheels.
