When is new 6 series coming out? (thinking of buying one)

Im currently looking at the new 6 series convertible.
but I don't want to buy it if I'll be seeing a whole new 6 series running around after I buy one.

Does anyone know when the new 6 series will come out?

what do you guys think of the 6 series anyway?

Umm...I'd wait...I'd wait for a while...

We have no information about anything on the car. We don't know the dimensions, the powertrain, the styling, or pretty much anything. It might look hideous, it might look too conservative. It might be a pig or a beast.

I'd wait.

hmmm.. I personally think it can't look any more hideous than the current one. hahaha.. I still love the 6 series though.

I couldn't decide between used M6 coupe for 77g or brand new e93 M3 convertible for 75g...
so I just decided to save a grip load of money on used 6 series convertible, and conservatively spend around 10g on it. I mean 10g on 6 series won't get you very far.. modding wouldn't be cheap on 6 series.

There to big, I like something a little smaller, M3 vert is a perfect size.

hey...if you like the M6 check out the M5. personally I think it handles much better, and I loved the active bolsters.

the M5 is cheaper, more practical, better handling (imo), and looks-wise it's better or worse depending upon the person.

you're gonna have to wait for a while until you see any official photos of the new 6er.

There is a sweet used one at BMW Kelowna going for cheap. It has 3600 km and was selling for $94k Cdn so $78k USD

Get it, the updates will be slow with the changes in the economy.

The e93 M3 would be the best buy imo.
