New 6 - She's a looker!

It's the grille/kidney thing that ruins the front for me. Those holes look bigger than each headlight. :s

It's really ugly IMO.

Then again, whilst I like the F10 more than the E60, I don't think either are a patch on the E90, which is a stunner in M3 form.

Moeks · 19 Sep 2010 at 20:43

I like it a lot.

I like it but there is something odd about the front, it just doesn't look quite right to me, a little too upright - I feel the same way about the F10 5 series which, having seen a few in the metal now, is great looking car apart from the nose.

If they sorted out the vomit inducing front end then it could be a nice looking car.

loltim · 19 Sep 2010 at 21:28

Looks rubbish?

[FnG]magnolia · 19 Sep 2010 at 22:04

The only thing that lifts that above 'meh' status is the interior which does look very nice indeed.

[DOD]Asprilla · 19 Sep 2010 at 22:05

I like, but I can't decide if they are influenced in the front end by Alpha or Volvo.

Aside from its svelte new style, the new 6 Series gets all-LED headlights with adaptive headlight function, a first for BMW. Daytime driving lights, which take the form of LED rings, accentuate what BMW describes as unmistakable front-end styling.

Don't think the lower strips are DRLs thankfully. Part of the adaptive headlights by the sounds of things. As it uses all LED lights they could double up as fog lights maybe?

Is it just me but if you change a few things (get rid of the angel eyes and the BMW "kidneys") then it will look a lot like a new Merc?

It looks stunning though, and I like the wing mirrors.

Ugly. Trying to get a new car into the old BMW brand = fail.

thecremeegg · 19 Sep 2010 at 23:46

Sorry but that front end is ghastly! How can anyone call that attractive?

s-man · 20 Sep 2010 at 00:05

Still not keen even if it's marginally better than the previous incarnation. Front end looks like Kerry Catona after a minor stroke. Nice looking bridge though..

the raised kidney area reminds me of the front end of volvos.

not like.

That Dick Lovett (teehee) 630 loks absolutely amazing.

I'm not a fan of the pointed front end with raised grille of the new 6 but that's probably because it's an SE being shown?

M sport pics please!

I'd much rather have the 630i posted by Fox, that and those wheels = Mmmmmmmm.

Also reminds me of a Volvo but to me it does look good

Agree, although I don't think it's THAT ugly

They dont do an M Sport 6 Series - not sure if this will change with the new one or not. They do a Sport, but the visual difference is nothing like the difference between SE and M Sport on the rest of the BMW range.

I must admit, it is nice. And depreciating nicely words the 335i pricerange.

Isn't it one of these or a 630i your considering next?

[TW]Fox · 20 Sep 2010 at 12:23

Maybe. Some sort of 300ishbhp BMW anyway
