NY- BMW M6

The BMW M6 convertible has been revealed at this year's New York Motor Show. The convertible, which costs £98,995 when it goes on sale in the UK in September, shares the M5's twin-turbocharged 4.4-litre V8 petrol engine and seven-speed, dual-clutch gearbox. The new M6 convertible weighs 1980kg (50kg heavier than before) but posts official times of 4.3sec for 0-62mph and 13.1sec for 0-124mph. The improved performance is allied to reduced fuel consumption, which is rated at 27.4mpg with emissions of 239g/km.
