BMW6 Series Convertible (E64) 2004 - 2007

　　The second generation of the 6 Series had received the much wanted convertible version. The original, 1977 model, didn't have that and most of the potential buyers just asked "why". But in 2004, they quit complaining.

　　The E64 6 Series convertible was the first of its kind in the BMW lineup. A soft-top Granturismo vehicle that could roll nice and quiet despite its big engine, or fast and loud with the throttle planted. Its design was a mix of likes and dislikes, mostly due to the design of the headlights. The front bumper featured a shark-like lower grille split in three and the small kidney grille on the upper part. On the side, the long beltline was nice looking, starting from the front wheel arches but suddenly dropped from the middle of the rear fenders.

　　Inside, tons of features made the driver happy, from the i-Drive to the head-up display offered as an option. The big, comfortable seats up front were electrically adjustable in all the possible ways. It had two seats in the back, but with limited legroom. But if nobody was seated there, a wind-stopper could have been placed over the rear seats. It was a very effective device, especially if the side windows were up.

　　Under the hood, there were three engine choices: an inline 6 and two V8. All were available with manual or automatic transmission, but only RWD.
