About the 2014 BMW M6
3rd gen (F12/F13), second model year for this generation’s M6 Coupe and Convertible.
BMW positions the M6 as a high-speed luxury grand tourer with real M-car hardware underneath. The focus is not bare-bones track use, but a blend of very strong V8 power, adjustable chassis settings, upscale materials, and everyday comfort. For most shoppers, the M6 stands out by offering exotic-car pace and a driver-focused cabin in a large two-door performance coupe or convertible that is still usable for trips and daily driving.
The 2014 M6 is a fully equipped luxury performance car in Coupe and Convertible form, built around a 560-hp twin-turbo V8. Both body styles pair an M-tuned suspension and active rear differential with heated leather seats, configurable driving settings, and a 10.2-inch navigation screen.
