BMW M6 Gran Coupe Spotted

Our trusty Teamspeed spies show us for the first time the production BMW M6 Gran Coupe spied during testing! The beautiful 6-series Gran Coupe is a sedan-coupe take on the F13 6-series coupe. The car is rumored to become true Mercedes CLS AMG-fighter when it will hit show rooms this fall.

Equipped with the sophisticated 4.4-litre bi-turbo V8 known from the X5 and X6 M versions, the new M6’s motor will develop roughly 570 to 580 hp. The car was snapped in Munich earlier today, and the prototype was riding on giant 20-inch wheels, but we reckon that yet bigger ones will be available as options.

BMW U.S. spokesman Dave Buchko confirmed to Motor Trend the other day that the M6 Gran Coupe will debut in 2013, but he couldn’t offer any additional information. The car will be sold around the world, including in the U.S. market.
