I brought you live updates from the BMW Gran Coupe
launch in Mumbai last month. If you thought that was expensive and
powerful, BMW has released all the official details of the performance
variant of the Gran Coupe called the BMW M6 Gran Coupe.
This is the third time the M division has performed some magic on the 6 Series as the two door Coupe and the Convertible variants are already present in the M avatar. The biggest change in the M6 is the 4.4-liter twin-turbocharged V8 borrowed from the X5 M.
The engine has come back from the workshop generating 553 hp and a colossal 680Nm. It is mated to a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
The styling of the M6 Gran Coupe has also been updated with -
Stopping power comes from a massive 15.7-inch brake discs up front and 15.6-inch discs at the rear.
Stay tuned for its public debut at the 2013 North American International Auto Show in Detroit in mid-January.
