The new 6 series is absolutely beautiful! This was an outstanding review that truly showed off its new aspects in clear detail and a little bit of performance and engine note as an added bonus. Great review and im most definitely subscribing!
I have been in a 640D Gran Coupe on a test drive. I have noticed the roof is slightly lower in the back than on my dad's old 520D. I could comfortably sit up straight in the 520D but had to duck a bit in the 640D. My dad now has a 640D Convertible which is a lovely car
Dream car of the moment! Could have one for £40k just need the remaining £39k. It makes the new cls look like a giant wart in comparison. Good work BMW
The 911 shape is an icon in the automotive world, a shape that can be refined, as Porsche do for each incarnation of it, but the shape cannot be altered, that will most carlovers agree upon. the Panamera is a five door hatchback they have tried to make it look like the 911, the hunchback rear is what most of us think is the worst with it. Of course the Panamara is superb obectively viewed, I agree. Cheers.
Merc and Audi fan. Hate BMW. But this is like nothing that Merc or Audi has ever produced. This is better than CLS AMG and S7. Best in class, best in Germans.
Mat's face in 2:25 --> Oh, full throttle on this thing, let's see what this Bimmer can do! Mat's face in 2:27 --> Ok, ok, I see what it's capable of, let's brake now.
Once upon a time cars used to drive well with standard suspension....W126 S class Merc has one of the best chassis' ever made, mine came with 14 inch wheels from the factory and still drove properly! I just dont know what to buy, but this is getting very close to the top of the list....I just need it to ride properly!
one of the best reviews on this car, everybody else is just speeding and drifting saying oh look good it moves and thats pretty much it and they mentioned they'll be a 4 wheel drive coming soon lol
While I do agree with the options being way too expensive, a full upgraded BMW is around the equivalent of a full upgraded Merc or Audi. Maybe not the 6 series, but the Full upgraded 7 series costs slightly less than the full upgraded Merc S-class. That is because the 7 series price starts off pretty low.
Nah, I think the CLS' interior is so plush and very well executed. I sat in both the A7 and CLS, but have yet to sit in the GC. The Merc' interior was superior in my eyes. But yeah, I can see why you prefer the GC. Beautiful car, no doubt.
Great Review - and again i was having a bit of a laugh, the round up of the price vs exclusivity was excellent ;D - Keep it up and please consider to make a year show or some special event. Thanks a lot - Cheers
This is, in my opinion, the best car BMW currently makes. Great looks, fine performance, and a cloud #9 interior. If i wanted to go on a european speed escapade, i'd use this vehicle. On the whole, are the europeans strict with speed, or do they just kinda let you go as fast as you like? I know that Germany's got that autobahn where you can cut loose with ferraris. US has speed limits, Taiwan has a lot of radar....
One of the most beautiful sport sedans ever, more elegant than the Mercedes Benz CLS, I think, a real grand tourer for effortless driving anywhere. Cheers.
As you said it all comes down to personal preferences. The CLS has the worst interior out of the three, the GranCoupe has the best interior. I think the A7 looks better than the CLS (unless it's an AMG) and I think the GranCoupe is the classiest of them all. If I had the money I would wait for the M6 GranCoupe and get that.
Gran Coupe is nice. But the CLS is the founder of this class. Chronologically its like this. Mercedes CLS-> (Maserati Quattroporte) -> VW Passat CC -> Porsche Panamera -> Audi A7 ->Aston Martin Rapide-> BMW Gran Coupe Newcomers need to prove. But BMW is on a good way
This is a great car! My second top dream car. My first is the bmw Z4, I would get this also for the much better practicality for when I need trunk space and more seats, but when I don't, I will take my z4 out!
Hahahah cute camera girl :) She should have model with the car and Matt should a narrated off camera ;) I love the all-round camera and sensor system. We that need for Penang!!!
I want to buy this car but I can't decide whether to get the regular 640i or the AC Schnitzer version of it. The thing I'm worried about with the ACS is ride comfort and height. they say on their website that their mods don't compromise comfort, but I'm very skeptical about that. I figured maybe getting 19" wheels instead of their 21" would fix that. Can anyone help?
residual values are sky high because the car is new, give it some time and it will be as accessible as a 6-7 year old 911(killer prices especially now with the new model out) who cares how many they sell? I'm not the CEO of porsche. Plus a new quattroporte is about to come out..
Looker but I hate how they raised the back seat in respect to the front seats. It looks awful, especially considering you are supposed to lower the center of gravity as much as you can on a GT/sportscar such as this.
whoah whoah... everybody has the car they like. we should respect their opinion. but for me, bmw has its own specality that let people thinks that its a car with good quality n also a high class car. but volvo is also not bad juz maybe the quality is not as good as bmw (juz maybe)
Have the M6 model in the BMW individual crystal white. It's a brilliant car and is worth a look. It is definitely BMW's greatest saloon car.

6 yrs and i stil find this review interesting both the content and video quality
11 years and i still find this review interesting both the content and video quality
too much plastic in this interior? don't be silly, the Audi has more, the Merc has far more. This is the best interior south of a Bentley
As an owner of a GC 650i msport with xdrive I have to agree. I love this car and it’s got such quality and style. An absolute beauty
@@BrandanM94Still got it?
At the beginning when he showed me what 11cms looked like...... I got very worried.
Jaguar car xj6 silver vintage
see who's waving at 3:34?

Well I'm 12 at 5ft 5in my head touch ze roof in a BMW m4 coupe
The after Bangle era is much better, now the cars look as good as they drive
Definitely would have this over the A7 and the CC. But it would be hard to choose between the CLS and this. The new 6er is just so gorgeous!
Your reviews are always so helpful. Keep up the great work. 👌
Dream car of the moment! Could have one for £40k just need the remaining £39k. It makes the new cls look like a giant wart in comparison. Good work BMW
This is miles and miles better than the merc cls
jamviator but the price is also miles miles away from the cls

Such a perfect spec this 640d. Love it! Watching this review 3rd time, it's that good :)
That surround camera feature looks like the one from Infiniti....
Merc and Audi fan. Hate BMW.
But this is like nothing that Merc or Audi has ever produced. This is better than CLS AMG and S7.
Best in class, best in Germans.
Wow,this car just came out and now there's the carbuyer-vid of it, nice Mat!
Just replaced mine for a BMW 740e... I'll miss the 640d GC. Most amazing car i've ever owned.
why did you replaced it? Would you do it again?
@@bazosmarek7981 i would

Expect BMWs to be a bit firmer than older Mercs.

Frozen bronze with white/brown leather interior is just stunning..
BMW really have got the styling right with all their cars they all look fantastic especially in blue or black
This my favorite 4-Door Coupe!!
Does it come with a steering wheel or is it a paid optional?
It´s my current favorite BMW Model, I love the i8 too.
Best for me is new m850i and m5 and m6

I have been waiting for this car's review since like forever!
Yep. I hope they'll review Citigo soon, I'd really like to see it compared with the VW UP! :)
The most beautiful BMW!
Great Review - and again i was having a bit of a laugh, the round up of the price vs exclusivity was excellent ;D - Keep it up and please consider to make a year show or some special event. Thanks a lot - Cheers
Great review. Thanx so much for regular updates! If you can, please review Maserati Quattroporte.
I would seriously consider it, but the multistorey at work means it's no cigar.

It isn't for sale yet in USA. But it will probably be available a bit later.
twinpower does not mean Twinturbo, it just means that it has a twinscroll turbocharger and not a single scroll
hi matt was this car fitted with the integral active steering ??
What does that have to do with anything?
The Passat CC would do the same for a 1/3 of the price and it looks much lighter than this blue tank.
Why it doesnt have a hatch back is beyond me the 4 series coupe does!!!!:)(
May have ruined the design for this car
One of the most beautiful sport sedans ever, more elegant than the Mercedes Benz CLS, I think, a real grand tourer for effortless driving anywhere.
Cheers.
why buy this instead of a 5 series????
this is one of the best looking cars bmw has launched in a long time
Great job Mat! Beautiful car.
Wait so how much does this cost?
M6 Grand Coupe gonna be a dream car.
Wow, you've driven that for 800 mile?For How long do the manufacturers typically lend you the cars?
Nice review , thank you . I can not fond the BMW 7 review , have you not got one
we need to get this in the US
As you said it all comes down to personal preferences. The CLS has the worst interior out of the three, the GranCoupe has the best interior. I think the A7 looks better than the CLS (unless it's an AMG) and I think the GranCoupe is the classiest of them all. If I had the money I would wait for the M6 GranCoupe and get that.
Gran Coupe is nice. But the CLS is the founder of this class. Chronologically its like this. Mercedes CLS-> (Maserati Quattroporte) -> VW Passat CC -> Porsche Panamera -> Audi A7 ->Aston Martin Rapide-> BMW Gran Coupe
Newcomers need to prove. But BMW is on a good way
This or the mercedes cls? I can't figure it out..
eventhough this 6-Series isnt that pretty i think it still looks nicer than the current 7-Series.. but nice review anyway!
This is a great car! My second top dream car. My first is the bmw Z4, I would get this also for the much better practicality for when I need trunk space and more seats, but when I don't, I will take my z4 out!
Looks better than an A7 or CLS. However given the v6 CLS and A7 are quite cheaper I would consider buying them over this
Beautifully proportioned.
Why not just by a 550i with a performance package?
what if it snows?
mat never changed wow
and thats why hes still brilliant
I agree with your statement! Although, I would say that if you got even more money then you should buy both...
Actually that's not quite the case....the rear split folding seats is an option ;)
First time in several years I think a new bmw looks good...
What's a volkswagen A7? Which VW chassis does the A7 use?
Matt? What are you doing here?
When will we see the review of that CityGo? :)
This makes a VERY poor case for buying a 7 series that I was about to... I think I am in love - with a CAR!!
Your Opinion
Not sure about the shape. I think the front of the 3 series looks much better. I wish they carried it on to the other series
Matt, nice shoes! which ones are those?
And now the big question, what car is Matt driving?
is that a skoda citigo?(the red one)
This car is unbelievably sexy as fuck. I mean wow!
except not being the super reliability and best pricing car, this car is almost flawless
Alabanian? Who are them?
What are you talking about.. this is the best looking bmw from the last 10 years or so..
Might buy one of these now....
When a car sounds that good under accelaration why would you not floor it all the time?
Wow that was hella fast. Didnt expect it to have a review already lolll
I'm an Albanian, I've watched Top Gear, and I totally understand. The Albanian Mafia does not need this car anymore because they already have it.
Hahahah cute camera girl :) She should have model with the car and Matt should a narrated off camera ;)
I love the all-round camera and sensor system. We that need for Penang!!!
manual transmission please
Lovely car, the only problem I have with is that fake exhaust noise. Apart from that its brilliant and very sexy
+Will James only the m6... I had a ride in a 640i and it sounds amazing
***** It was obvious that the noise had been tuned to death.
Jaguar xj6vitage car
Fake exhaust ? Are you stupid man this is what turns you on if your a car guy
Wiz They pump fake engine noise into the cabin.
It also has a steering wheel and tires wow! Tuff match for BMW
This is like the perfect car. Looks great, practical, powerful and great quality. 5 series that looks better.
One of the few BMW cars I like. Though it is not my favorite... very nice.
Matt Watson at his best when did Carbuyer video's

The thing I'm worried about with the ACS is ride comfort and height. they say on their website that their mods don't compromise comfort, but I'm very skeptical about that. I figured maybe getting 19" wheels instead of their 21" would fix that. Can anyone help?
Can someone give me a technical reason why there are only 2-5 diesel car models sold in the US, while Europe has so many?
im 19 and i have alfa romeo giulietta and my dad audi a6, more questions?
It would have been a lot better if it had no version of 4 doors but with this new shape and look
why its not hatchback ? like A7
Finally a good looking Bmw in the last 15 years?
residual values are sky high because the car is new, give it some time and it will be as accessible as a 6-7 year old 911(killer prices especially now with the new model out) who cares how many they sell? I'm not the CEO of porsche. Plus a new quattroporte is about to come out..
Why do they call it a Coupe when it isn't?
But what if I wanted to fit a big bottle in the door bins D:
Looker but I hate how they raised the back seat in respect to the front seats. It looks awful, especially considering you are supposed to lower the center of gravity as much as you can on a GT/sportscar such as this.
the best 4 door cope so far on the market
whoah whoah... everybody has the car they like. we should respect their opinion. but for me, bmw has its own specality that let people thinks that its a car with good quality n also a high class car. but volvo is also not bad juz maybe the quality is not as good as bmw (juz maybe)
