BMW 6 Series Edition Sport Announced

BMW have released first details of 'Edition Sport', a new sports package for 6 Series model ranges. Edition Sport delivers enhanced driving dynamics, while styling is suitably sharpened for greater street presence.


Heightened aggression in the styling stakes comes courtesy of a new contoured hood and bespoke 19-inch alloy wheels, while two paintjobs all-new to the 6-Series - Imola Red and Carbon Black - add flair and exclusivity to the package. A brushed aluminium interior enhances the spec sheet, while 650i customers benefit from the aural pleasure and improved engine performance of a Sports exhaust.


Beneath the tougher exterior and a marginly toughened 6-Series lies: an M anti-roll stabilisation system improves handling and includes stiffened axles at the front by 10 percent and by 30 percent at the rear.


Prices start at £53,445 for the BMW 630i Edition Sport Coupé, with Edition Sport models carrying a £1500-2000 premium over standard Sport models.

Purty... but it's begging to be lowered in the front, me thinks.

I would guess this is an UK announcement and somewhat related to this post: http://bimmerdrivers.com/forum/showpost.php?p=39727&postcount=64

d'oh!!

Bingo!

It's interesting. They list the hood as "new" but it looks just like the one on the Neiman Marcus Edition

Saw one of these in person in Cali. I like the hood!

Agreed! Rides a little high in the front!

And why the "M" steering wheel? They really need to do something with those side mirrors too.

I read an online version of this post's info (there are slightly different ones) as it said the new "Edition Sport" does include the M steering wheel and different mirrors.

Is this a facelift?

[boxboss]

Is this a facelift?Yes, but it should be called a hoodlift.

[BHR4CE1]

Yes, but it should be called a hoodlift.
