BMW 650i Convertible: 21.1.11, Cape Town All-new soft-top ushers in greater elegance, agility and performance

摘要

BMW USUALLY LAUNCHES the coupe version of a new model before the convertible. Not this time. The new 6-series convertible will arrive first so that it can enter its two largest markets, Europe and the US, in the spring. Coupe buyers, meanwhile, will have to wait another six months. Not that BMW is relying solely on seasonal weather to generate showroom traffic. It has also given its new open-top a heady dash of style as part of a complete re-engineering job that brings a new rear-wheel-drive platform (based on that of the latest 5-series), more contemporary engines featuring Efficient Dynamics developments and a whole host of electronic chassis aids.
