Just picked one up on black friday. M6 has been my dream car since i was 19 when the V10 coupe came out. But when the grand coupe dropped, i instantly began to lust over that one more than the V10….

@@Driven-Productions very very reliable. I do preventive maintenance myself. The biggest iissue I had was with smg seal gasket for the solenoids that was leaking so the transmission has to come out. I did it myself and only cost me $40 plus two hours of my time. If you take it to the shop, they will probably not know how to fix it but instead telling you that you need a complete new hydraulic unit which is $6,000. While I had the transmission out, I replaced all the seal including not limited to clutch solenoid, actuator block solenoid, hydraulic pump seals and put in new chf12s fluids plus transmission fluid, all of which cost me only $180.

This generation of M6 2-door coupe is probably my dream car. It’s the perfect under-the-radar sports car. Luxurious, fast, fun, reliable, and it’s gorgeous
Very few well maintained low mileage M6’s on the market right now, plenty of them with 60.000+ miles but most are the 2013-2016 which are the least desirable for this M6. 2017-2019 M6’s are very few and far between and more often then not they were sadly abused with next to no maintenance done to them or were caught up in an accident. But if you are lucky you should be able to snag a 30k mile 2018 M6 comp for around $50,000 which is a very good deal, considering the next best thing would be a mildly used 2020 M850i but they sell for around $70,000 on the low end.
Nicely done video and I believe you covered a lot of good points. But im assuming most who are looking at this video are hoping to get a pre-owned m6 GC in the future so I will offer some comments as well (I own 2, one for me and my missus. Both with the comp pkg). ~ Car is a 2016 in the video, not sure why commentator kept saying it was a 2014 (easy way to tell is the laminated glass center screen). ~ If you're currently looking to buy one, don't go for the comp pkg and don't get one with carbon ceramics. Comp pkg makes the car hella unsettled on the road and on long drives the stiff suspension is a bit too much. I originally test drove a base m6 and the suspension and comfort is so much better. I recommend going for the base trim and doing an ECU flash tune. With carbon ceramics, don't waste your money. You're not driving on the autobahn and you're definitely not going to track this (way too large to have fun). It may look worth it when you're comparing prices for the initial car purchase but you'll dish out a fortune to replace them when their worn down. ~ Commentator made a great point that this is great when you're not in traffic. There's no break hold option on the m6 and with the DCT the car is tiring in stop and go traffic. Also, all F generation M models don't come with adaptive cruise so driver assistance is non-existant. ~ Car is literally made for highway cruising but horrible for fun back country roads. Don't get me wrong you'll still have a great time but the car is too heavy and too large to yeet it in the corners. ~ The back seats are NOT good for adults unless you're 5'5 and below. Im 5'9 and when I first sat in the back I also thought, "wow this is not bad at all", completely wrong. Had my wifey drive me home from work one day and I sat in the back for 30 minutes, had a whole week of horrible back and neck pain as a result. ~ If you know a good third party warranty company, try to get one that covers electronics. Never had any issues with engine or injectors during ownership but had a plethora of electrical issues that add up over time and kills your ownership cost. (window buttons failed on both my cars, rear sunshades stopped working at 40k miles, had to replace my idrive unit (2k out of pocket), volume mapping for my B&O reset three times). Plus, a M6 is not like a M3, much less people own an m6 and many dealers don't have any basic parts for the car. I had my car at the dealership for 4 months last year just because they had to custom order and ship parts from Germany. ~ Unless you find one with a M sports exhaust, I would say the M6 sounds quieter than other M cars. Some hate that some love it. But, if you want loud consider some reputable aftermarket exhaust systems. ~ Aftermarket mods for the M6 is frankly ass and overpriced. Any aftermarket carbon exterior/interior mods are hella expensive and options are limited. Hell, I even dished out 2.3k for a Vorsteiner rear CF diffuser and it didn't even have good fitment. ~ Vehicle virgins and other YT reviews state to not buy this for places with rain or snow. Nah, I live in Seattle where it rains 24/7 and I have no problem daily driving it. Heck my wife drives hers fine and she sucks at driving. Just be sensible, respect the drive, and have good throttle control. Obviously, if you live in like Montana, you won't be able to drive this in the winter. ~ Last but not least, find one with the upgraded Bang & Olufsen system. The sound quality is marginally better for non-audiophiles but in the end of the day it gives you good clout and just a bit better resale value down the line. Overall, if you've been eyeing one, i'd say even now with pandemic pricing, the m6's on the market are going for decent prices and you should go for it. But make sure to do your research and try to find warranty coverage.

I just bought a 2015 in white exterior, red interior. I love it, I get alot of looks and compliments. I found this by surprise on my Facebook marketplace at a dealership
Very good review. I have the same car but in the Competition and Executive packages. I can only say that you were dead-on in your review. Not to many things to dislike or complain about. BTW, the high quality and clarity of your video is very much appreciated.
You are absolutely dead on. I have a M5 and I can’t believe how good these cars are. The best car I have ever owned. Never disappoints!!! Everything you’ve ever wanted in a car rolled up into 1… I agree the newer models just don’t look the same in comparison. Thx for the video
Not talking about? Oh they definitely are! I love your car! God bless! I can't wait to buy this car. In South Africa this car is over a million rand. Mahn it's my dream. However watching your video inspires me more. Thanks for your upload. Please look after this car! Haha to me it's Gold! And the best looking car in my opinion.
M6 competition coupe is the only version of the M6 id consider since it has the most power and the least amount of weight. The rest are drastically more heavy with less power putting them in line with today M240i which is an eye opener. The M8 comp that replaced this vehicle is still a solid second faster. Only issue is finding a well maintained low mileage M6 competition coupe is quite difficult since the competition models didn’t sell very well and majority of the M6 was sold as the 4 door varient.
I just got a 2013 640i Gran Coupe. The owner took very good care of it. I love every touchpoint of this car. It came without the manuals so I have a couple questions that I hope you can help me with. It says that the interior has ambiance lighting - like amber, but I cannot find how to activate it. Would you happen to know? BTW, Love your vid on the 2014 version.
Probably in the infotainment system, though it's very likely you've already searched there. Google the manual of the car, you usually can find a digital version.
@@Driven-Productions I actually shared it on my Facebook page. Truly one of the best kept secrets in the Super Car slash Grand Touring arena and you covered every aspect. Bravo 👏
@@jeffthomas4216 thank you and totally agree. Also a good value considering the crazy inflation driven Covid prices lately. This car is still available had a couple could not get qualified.
I found my 2015 640i by destiny on Facebook marketplace at a dealership, it waS a repo. A female had it and was treated it badly. It had front end damage previously i could tell the hood wasn't perfectly sealed, but it was not easy to notice. I get alot of compliments and looks while im rolling. I just changed the taillights to smoked black❤. Soon i will install the carbon fiber hood and led steering wheel
I think the two door is one of the most beautiful cars ever made. But I can’t get myself to buy one with all the problems with the engine even though I’ve been working on cars for 20 years
If I could justify the fuel costs (I live in the UK) I would have an M6. I currently own a 2012 640d Gran Coupe, which I fitted with KW V2 coilovers, 20" Japan Racing wheels (to replace the buckled and cracked OEM 20" wheels) with Michelin PS4S tyres. I love the car, apart from the UK roads being terrible with potholes causing regular cracks and buckles to my wheels (I know I'm not alone in having to deal with this). My 640d gets me so much of what makes the M6 great, with great fuel economy too (great for a 300bhp+ car). Plenty of speed and power, plenty of comfort and luxury, and no issues in 18 months of ownership apart from the UK's potholes 😞
Great review! Been eyeing an M6 for awhile. But to name a better daily with the sprinkle of chaos, I would say the Porsche Macan Turbo. AWD, more space, agile, and over 400 HP!
@@jf8085 We're not talking leagues, we were talking daily drivers. As someone that has both a M6 and a Macan Turbo...I know the differences. But go on...
I have had a 2015 640i that I loved and used daily for 7 years .. now I want to buy an 2015 M6, but I have seen an M850i on the market with much lower mileage and 5 years younger .. can you help me decide between the M6 and the M850i? Thanks in advance.
I totally agree on the new grill design being ugly compared to the previous style.......with the exception of the X5, and X6 ! I think the new style grill fits those two vehicles better.
Just did my third GT350R review which may help, this one is now for sale at $15-20k below where they were a year or two ago. th-cam.com/video/nAHxtZQc50Y/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Sc5md_-elssLSsjM
This car is one of the most beautiful saloons of all, inside and outside. These pictures don't do it justice. The perspective of the shots does not convey just how lowslung and wide it is. The performance is phenomenal. The only thing I'm not so sure about is the sound...sounds a bit like a four...
@@alchorythm shoot me an email DrivenNashville(at)gmail.com. I’ll get you connected. You got a trade in? I would recommend some fresh rubber, can install PS4’s at our cost for ya, may push the price a bit more, but ultimately save you several hundred off retail.
Depends - do you like performance in turns or comfort? The S63 is fast, but its a luxury car first. The M6 is a performance sedan first, with a lot of luxury too.
@@Deezy_freshcoast sounds good 👊🤙 Would you like to buy this one? It smokes - this car is dialed in. If so, I can help. Email me your number and we can talk trade in, financing and shipping.
That is true Bruno appreciate the comment, although commonly referred to as just the F12 generation. “The third generation of the BMW 6 Series consists of the BMW F12 (two-door convertible version), BMW F13 (two-door coupe version) and BMW F06 (four-door "Gran Coupe" version) grand tourers. The F12/F13/F06 generation was produced from 2011 to 2018 and is often collectively referred to as the F12.”
No problem@@Driven-Productions. As an owner of a manual 2015 M6 Gran Coupe, I 100% agree with your review. The M6 is one of the better BMW M cars ever built but also one of the most forgotten. I also agree that the G80 M3 looks good except for that awful front grill that has never grown on me.
Stunning looking car..with some of the worst gas mileage you will ever encounter..I would buy one but that fuel economy would bankrupt me within 2 years
Take it easy and cruise on the highway and you can get low 20’s which ain’t terrible for a car with this level of hp. If you blast it all the time yeah expect 12-14.
Aside from having the same engine and being better looking than the new generation, these M’s had the DCT manual double clutch trans whereas tthe new lot have a slush box torque converter 🤮
Idk why BMW does carbon fiber roof’s id rather have a full panorama sunroof They should do a carbon fiber hood instead Or it least have a sunroof cutout with the carbon fiber roof
body stiling in my opinion is one of the best ever created by BMW, but technology is kinda old and there is no awd, which means that not that easy on tires :D
You hit the nail on the head bro I’m telling you that new kidney grill looks terrible yes this car right here is the sexiest car then the other one I would like to have an eight that’s gonna be my next one or the TwinTurbo V8 what does ZO7 kit on it but I have my competition cartoon with less than 2000 miles on it I got it a woman’s house I was working at her husband passed away and I’ve been working here for a long time doing service calls electrical stuff that’s what I was electrical subcontractor I’m Kevin Harvick‘s personal electrician I do a lot of work for NASCAR drivers and teams but anyways that’s besides the point I got the car for one hell of a deal and it’s still brand new and I’m getting ready to turn that thing into a massive hot rod
What are you talking about? The gearbox is fine around town. Its perfect. I suggest there's something wrong with the gearbox if your having issues because you shouldn't
I think when you name a car a coupe but it's got 4 doors you've announced that you've lost your marbles. Probably just after you start pumping fake engine noises into the cabin through the speakers.
The two we owned were both issue free, sorry you had a poor experience. Def have to do your research on the models and make sure service was done consistently.
@@Driven-Productions Valve stem seals..and too much plastic in the engine bay.. Water pumps, crank bearings.. Great cars until about 60k..then fall apart..
Is this, or was this your personal car and it is now for sale at the dealership? Also, nice ZL1 1LE, i picked one up a little less than a year ago and its a monster🙌🏼🙌🏼
Hi Richie appreciate the comment. This very close to mine which was a 14 year. Car is at the dealership and is for sale. Last buyer couldn’t get financing approved, but the car booked out no problem. This was mine which I daily drove for a year and a half here -th-cam.com/video/rl82bALmM5g/w-d-xo.html
The flashing light in the dash I believe your referring to as a CEL is actually the traction control light. It flashes momentarily just after he goes into sport mode and accelerates into a curve which caused the rear-end to get loose for a split second which caused the light to flash in the dash.
I was all-in on this review until I heard the Ford F-150 comparison, and then immediately saw the driving gloves. We got all of the crazy at once. Ugh.
Not with that attitude my man! You got this - give it time, no debt, pay yourself first, work hard to grow your income, and make smart investments along the way. Buying a fully depreciated M6 aint a bad idea either.
Interested in buying this car? Head over to our friends at Direct Auto of TN - www.directautostn.com/used-2016-bmw-m6--clarksville-tn-id-44963504
Man this car gets me everytime... Best car they ever made and that's a fact.
You’re not wrong. For some reason this car has not sold yet 🤷♂️
Good to know. I bought one with the competition pack 😌
It is if you know 20% of the cars they made. Its beautiful, but its a beautiful piece of shit.
The M5 with the 6 speed manual is pretty sick.
What do you mean 20% of what they made? Are there reliability issues with this car?

Yeah I’m not a pro editor do my best. In new reviews I do mix up the tracks more. I still prefer some background music personally.
I have a bmw m6 gran coupe competition i have it in black with the sahkir orange interior I LOVE IT SO MUCH
Awesome - appreciate you sharing
I am in the market for one has your gave any issues
"I'd rather drive this than the F150 Raptor." haha Now, that's a mouth full!
The M6 Gran Coupe is BMWs greatest design. A looker for sure
Check out my recent M8 review, you could be first comment on it. I mentioned I like the M6 design better than their newer flagship model.
I totally agree on the new grill design being ugly compared to the previous style.......with the exception of the X5, and X6 ! I think the new style grill fits those two vehicles better.
Agree 👊
Anyone know the brand of side skirts?
The car is my dream car.
👊
Hey Adam what grade of power/speed for this vs the Ferrari F8 you just reviewed would you give.
If this is a seven, the F8 is a 9. 10 is the Plaid and GT2RS
@@Driven-Productions Great channel. Keep the vids coming!
@@dadon3424 thank you! Please check out that Mazdaspeed MX-5 video just posted. Tell me that is not the best sounding 4 Cylinder made.
I’m caught between the GT350 Shelby or this .. and the m6 is definitely desirable.
Just did my third GT350R review which may help, this one is now for sale at $15-20k below where they were a year or two ago. th-cam.com/video/nAHxtZQc50Y/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Sc5md_-elssLSsjM
One of the few 5 seaters for smaller kids that is still a performance monster…this and the Audi A7 are it.
Appreciate the comment John so much car here especially for the money these days. A7 is a good one as well!
4 seats…
A7 seats 5 S7 seats 4....
Without a seat belt 😂
Which in the video is f-06 not f-12
This car is one of the most beautiful saloons of all, inside and outside. These pictures don't do it justice. The perspective of the shots does not convey just how lowslung and wide it is. The performance is phenomenal. The only thing I'm not so sure about is the sound...sounds a bit like a four...
One other thing how much do you want for that car?
Listed for $52.9k - will take $50k
@@Driven-Productions wait $50k? HELL YEAA LESS GO I WANNA BUY
@@alchorythm shoot me an email DrivenNashville(at)gmail.com. I’ll get you connected. You got a trade in? I would recommend some fresh rubber, can install PS4’s at our cost for ya, may push the price a bit more, but ultimately save you several hundred off retail.
No doubt it's the finest of BMW works
I even regret selling mine
Does anybody have a good one to sell in dubai?
stilll one of the sexiest cars ever made
I agree, waaaayyyy better looking than anything recent from BMW
Geez guys I’m torn between buying a 2016 M6 gran coupe vs 2016 S63 AMG.. any suggestions?
Depends - do you like performance in turns or comfort? The S63 is fast, but its a luxury car first. The M6 is a performance sedan first, with a lot of luxury too.
Definitely looking for something more fun in cornering, I think the M6 is the car for me! Thanks
@@Deezy_freshcoast sounds good 👊🤙 Would you like to buy this one? It smokes - this car is dialed in. If so, I can help. Email me your number and we can talk trade in, financing and shipping.
I would get the s63 I have an m6 but the s63 is just too expensive for me
Amazing car
Great review but the M6 Gran Coupe is the F06, the F12 is the two door version.
That is true Bruno appreciate the comment, although commonly referred to as just the F12 generation. “The third generation of the BMW 6 Series consists of the BMW F12 (two-door convertible version), BMW F13 (two-door coupe version) and BMW F06 (four-door "Gran Coupe" version) grand tourers. The F12/F13/F06 generation was produced from 2011 to 2018 and is often collectively referred to as the F12.”
No problem@@Driven-Productions. As an owner of a manual 2015 M6 Gran Coupe, I 100% agree with your review. The M6 is one of the better BMW M cars ever built but also one of the most forgotten. I also agree that the G80 M3 looks good except for that awful front grill that has never grown on me.
@@brunov.7411 really what was BMW thinking with those massive kidney grills 🤷♂️
Stunning looking car..with some of the worst gas mileage you will ever encounter..I would buy one but that fuel economy would bankrupt me within 2 years
Take it easy and cruise on the highway and you can get low 20’s which ain’t terrible for a car with this level of hp. If you blast it all the time yeah expect 12-14.
If I win the lottery one day I would buy one (the 2 door model)
Aside from having the same engine and being better looking than the new generation, these M’s had the DCT manual double clutch trans whereas tthe new lot have a slush box torque converter 🤮
Trans in these were incredible. Didn’t know the new ones have a single clutch torque converter. Appreciate sharing that
Great vid but this car is not a 2014 lol.
It is a 2016, 2016 is the only with that version of Idrive. 2017 and 18 have a newer version.
Yes sir it is a 16 - I had a 14 so it stuck 😂
This is the F06, not F12
That doesn't look like a '14, i see it's got the facelift and all, and I thought those came at '16 onwards
Balliinnnnn
Agree with every word
Well that may be a first 😂 🤙👊 Please sub got some cool content on the way including an H1 Hummer on the way soon.
@@Driven-Productions sure, enjoyed the review. Hopefully I'll enjoy the others!
@@Derekjeterlover7 🤞
Idk why BMW does carbon fiber roof’s id rather have a full panorama sunroof
They should do a carbon fiber hood instead
Or it least have a sunroof cutout with the carbon fiber roof
Plus ☝️ for the sunroof. Not like I’m tracking an M6 Gran Coupe…
it cuts out the "competition" spec. The 49 pound decrease is a world of difference when racing.
body stiling in my opinion is one of the best ever created by BMW, but technology is kinda old and there is no awd, which means that not that easy on tires :D
The 650i gran coupe is a great car to
This is LCI.
2016-19
nah 8 series looks way better, but I like this 6 alot more
@@keanurevees2180 each to their own. 8 ain’t bad.
@@Driven-Productions yea, 8 has keept the Og grill unlike 4,3 and 2.
I love this car, I've got it in my sight!!👍🏽
A few people have done financing apps, but no one could qualify.
IMHO, it's BMs best.
@@sundayadickson a lot of car for not a lot of money. Hope you can get her she needs a new home
@@Driven-Productions still available? Why could they. Not qualify mot putting no money down ?
Killin me with white interior I got terriers
You hit the nail on the head bro I’m telling you that new kidney grill looks terrible yes this car right here is the sexiest car then the other one I would like to have an eight that’s gonna be my next one or the TwinTurbo V8 what does ZO7 kit on it but I have my competition cartoon with less than 2000 miles on it I got it a woman’s house I was working at her husband passed away and I’ve been working here for a long time doing service calls electrical stuff that’s what I was electrical subcontractor I’m Kevin Harvick‘s personal electrician I do a lot of work for NASCAR drivers and teams but anyways that’s besides the point I got the car for one hell of a deal and it’s still brand new and I’m getting ready to turn that thing into a massive hot rod
Sounds good good luck with the build! Please subscribe working on new content daily.
potholes?
What are you talking about? The gearbox is fine around town. Its perfect. I suggest there's something wrong with the gearbox if your having issues because you shouldn't
I've decided that I am buying one. a 2015. 25k with high mileage. Yup.
the best interior has the G30 LCI with m-package and big sceen
I think when you name a car a coupe but it's got 4 doors you've announced that you've lost your marbles. Probably just after you start pumping fake engine noises into the cabin through the speakers.
I just bought one today
Grand Coupe is F06, not F12.

The two we owned were both issue free, sorry you had a poor experience. Def have to do your research on the models and make sure service was done consistently.

Water pumps, crank bearings..
Great cars until about 60k..then fall apart..

its f06 not f12
Is this, or was this your personal car and it is now for sale at the dealership? Also, nice ZL1 1LE, i picked one up a little less than a year ago and its a monster🙌🏼🙌🏼
Hi Richie appreciate the comment. This very close to mine which was a 14 year. Car is at the dealership and is for sale. Last buyer couldn’t get financing approved, but the car booked out no problem. This was mine which I daily drove for a year and a half here -th-cam.com/video/rl82bALmM5g/w-d-xo.html
We not gonna talk about the CEL
Where do you see a check engine light? There were no lights if I recall on this drive. Drove the car yesterday all was 👌
The flashing light in the dash I believe your referring to as a CEL is actually the traction control light. It flashes momentarily just after he goes into sport mode and accelerates into a curve which caused the rear-end to get loose for a split second which caused the light to flash in the dash.
The 4 and 6 GC of that gen were masterpieces in design. Anything coming after is so so much worse
NO NO NO SHUR UP SHUT UP YOU GOTTA KEEP QUIET ABOUT THIS I WANT ONE
😂 buy this one I’ll hook ya up
Everyone on TH-cam thinks, “no one is talking” about everything.
Yep, everyone
@@Driven-Productions I wasn’t expecting that!
tennesey tornado
Its like an s class at half the price
just buy 2 reserve engines if you want to do alot of miles xD
Gloves
The car is very nice but even used they are way over priced and when they need maintenance or repair good luck. Lots of $$$$
I was all-in on this review until I heard the Ford F-150 comparison, and then immediately saw the driving gloves. We got all of the crazy at once. Ugh.
Appreciate you watching and commenting, although not sure why you’re hating on leather driving gloves esp on a chilly day in Dec 🤷♂️
My Dream Car that I will never afford lol
Not with that attitude my man! You got this - give it time, no debt, pay yourself first, work hard to grow your income, and make smart investments along the way. Buying a fully depreciated M6 aint a bad idea either.
@@Driven-Productions I know I have to have a positive attitude Thank you1 You have a awesome car for sure!
