Dropped the Z in for it's recall this morning and spotted a 2016 650i coupe with 5k on the clock in the dealers. My wife really likes the 6 series and her 3 is dying a slow death and i must say, it does look very good.

Has anyone had any experience with them at all and am I mad for even considering? The decision will not be right away so I really should use my head here.....
 
We look after an earlier 650, which is of little help i guess...

But that has been a money pit...

That said,little miles and age and i think the newer 6 looks awesome. Will have loads of warranty,so if its the right money,whats not to like?

Oh...Make sure its an M sport and not the Se..
 
I just got rid of my 650i - very good cars and second hand they’re a bargain. Ultimately I only got rid of mine because it was a bit too comfortable, therefore not so good for thrashing around the lanes. But if all you want to do is move from a to b is absolute comfort I’m not sure there’s much better. (Mine also kept pace with a A.M. Vantage - not bad considering he probably spent 3 times as much). It wasn’t too much to run either. Oil service and new pads cost £350, which isn’t too bad.
 
Interesting to hear, thans folks. Is the M sport one I've seen, Sept 16 so the lci model. Will be purely an a to b so yes it would be overkill, but ah well :driving:

Seeing the prices of ones around 05 has me worried on the value falling through the floor. It's on at 38k at the dealers so having lost 50% in less than 2 years is a worry
 
i'm going for a 640d (cant decide on the 2dr or gran coupe yet) but think the residuals of the diesel will be slightly better - it's a euro 6 engine so unlikley to be affected by the looming diesel catastrophe
 
Which shape 6 series? Earlier 4.8 v8 n/a which has coolant pipe and valve seal headaches or the newer hot v 4.4 turbo :)

It is the most recent with the twin turbo v8, might be off the cards now though :(

Nope, just the other half is dead set on a Mustang. Still a V8 and tbh, would be a stretch for the 650i where as there are beginning to be a fair number of used stangs at much more sensible money coming onto the market
