2010 BMW M6 Convertible

The BMW M6 convertible offers top-down motoring with the same exceptional performance and handling of the M6 coupe. Power comes from BMW's 500 horsepower V10 engine developed for F1 racing, and the convertible is equipped with the high-tech suspension and performance modifications of the M6 coupe, as well as the same extensive list of 21st century automotive innovations as available on the other 6-Series models.Most luxury features are standard on the M6, including park distance control, leather upholstery, dual-zone climate control, eight-speaker audio system, auto-dimming mirrors, xenon adaptive headlamps, and moonroof. The optional Sport Package upgrades the seats, wheels and tires for the more performance-oriented owner. Cutting-edge options include BMW's innovative heads-up windshield display with special M display, radar-managed cruise control, a night-vision screen, navigation, satellite and high-definition radio, and heated front seats.An important aspect of all this technology is that everything, from audio to ventilation is controlled by the single-knob BMW iDrive system. Opinions differ widely on this system, even with recent improvements. Younger, more computer-savvy, reviewers find no problem mastering the system, while more traditional critics complain about the five or six separate actions required to do a simple task like change a radio channel.As with all other BMWs in the current line-up, safety features are extensive, including multi-stage front airbags, front-seat mounted side-impact airbags, curtain-style head protection, ABS with brake assist and brake-force distribution, tire-pressure monitors, and the fully-equipped first-aid kit that has always been packed in BMW trunks. BMW's Assist telematics system with automatic collision notification and SOS button.
