2008 BMW 6 Series Coupe

2008 BMW 6 Series Coupe Model Overview
Vehicle Summary: 2008 BMW 6 Series Coupe

The opulent and agile BMW 6 Series Coupe delivers strong acceleration via a powerful 4.8-liter V8 engine. All that power can be mated to a choice of three transmissions: a six-speed manual, a traditional automatic or the automaker's auto/manual-hybrid, called a Sequential Manual Gearbox. The BMW 6 Series Coupe is stylish and well equipped and offers plenty of comfort, at least for front-seat passengers. Rear legroom is nonexistent. Like other BMWs, it also remains saddled with the automaker's confounding iDrive system, which combines various dashboard controls into a single console-mounted knob.
