The BMWs from the Bangle era get a lot of hate. I think they have aged really well and look really good. I had a white 650i pass me on the way from Roswell to Greenville and it made me want to shop for them.

Today, in unnecessary car shopping with E90M3, !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

Finished in the lovely shade of Imola Red II with the preferred transmission.

What a great looking side profile.

If I was still in the market for a second car, this would be really hard to pass on, especially considering it’s within driving distance from my parents. Truth be told, I was looking for convertibles but this example was too nice not to share. This has me considering trading in the 3 for this 6.

I’m going to have to respectfully disagree on the looks thing.

I also find it hilarious how often I see these with car eyelashes. So fitting

I’ve always thought that interior was extremely cool-looking. Except for the shifter, but then again, I hate every shifter that isn’t a sphere on a stick.

That’s why there’s a bunch of auto makers, as everyone’s tastes are differnt.

Albeit, a little cramped. Despite being larger than my 3, there isn’t any more interior room.

That is nice and would be a great GT car to complement your sports sedan.

I like the side profile but the front always reminded me of a goofy looking shark

i didnt like them at all when they first came out... but the proportions werent wrong. ive come to accept the bulbous trunk lid and the somewhat sad dog headlights. in fact ive shopped a few manual m6s, because everyone needs a v10 in their life. and without the smg, one less hyper-expensive repair to worry about.

i didnt realize they made the 650 with a manual. they only made like 1600 manual m6s, any idea on production number of manual 650's? did the 6 speeds come in convertible (shush, i know)?

Three things that need to be addressed:

1. Imola Red looks fucking gorgeous on the LCI E63.

2. The LCI 2009-2010 E63 is a car I need in my life.

3. Why isn’t this one in my driveway? Gib.

That it would be.

I have no idea how many M6s came with a stick. I know a friends parents had one, and it was glorious.

I like the x45 cars as they sometimes smoke worse than my fintail, and it makes me feel better.

Nice color combo on this car, but I still can’t get over that trunk. I see Bangle’s good work as only the Z4 and nothing else.

Gonna be honest here. Not long ago after reading one of your shopping posts I was like, “Yeesh, is all he really likes are BMWs?” Then I looked out the window at my four Toyotas and humbled myself.

3 things stand out:

1. I have to disagree on the looks. The styling hasn’t aged well. The Z4, E9X, and e60 are far more timeless as far as design goes.

2. Folger Kia floor mats. Folger was a chain of Kia, Buick, and Subaru dealers in the Charlotte area and they had seriously terrible customer service.

3. It should be light on the outside and red inside.

oh... i know how many m6s... it was under 1600. split around about the middle between coupes and convs. i was asking how many 650's had the manual.

Nah, I like other cars. I just can’t afford them, or they don’t sell them here. I’d buy a new Mercedes if it came with a manual.

Ah, I have no idea, can’t be that many.

Also, you could get a 6MT in the convertible 650i. The BMW dealer near my place in Savannah had one for sale a while ago.

Here, I punched up the colors and fixed the weird transition from the trunk lid to the taillight.

E63's are some of the best AMG’s. You should totally get one.

Plus they came with a hood ornament. I would like one, not sure I can afford one and the M3.

I was considering one of these (or m6) and decided to get my wagon instead, I cooooould do 2 car seats in this but it would be hell. Still want one though, they’re pretty awesome. Except the rear 3/4 view looks like shit

I’ve got it on good authority that W220 S600s are the best AMG cars...

Lies! That’s not an AMG any more than a GLE43 is!

Yeah well....fine! At least it doesn’t label itself as an AMG car. And to it’s credit, it is faster than the S55, so at least it’s got that going for it.
