Post BMW RZ-M6 Concept



"When BMW rolled out the new 6 Series coupe in 2003, it reconnected with a nameplate that had laid dormant for some 14 years. The original 6-Series, produced between 1976 and 1989, earned itself a cult following and iconic status, epitomized by the 635CSi. Some apparently feel that the current 6 doesn't pay enough homage to the original. The people at Racer X Design count themselves in that camp, and are evidently hoping there are more like-minded enthusiasts... with cash."

Definitely Challenger-ish in execution, but it still looks better than the stock 650i/M6 mess.

It looks like an M6 with a kit. Not that impressive imo. Thanks for sharing

I actually like it, my favorite BMW design ever (since the Bangle era).

First let me put on my flame retardant suit.

I know I'm in the minority here, but I actually like the 650/M6 and X6...in fact, will be test driving an X6 next week.
