2013 BMW M6 Gran Coupe Launch Edition

It looks like the Canadian market received lots of attention from Bimmer today. After the 335i M Performance Edition we announced earlier, BMW Canada then announced the M6 Gran Coupe Launch Edition. The model was built in cooperation with BMW Individual and marks the launch of the M6 Grand Coupe into the Canadian market.

The M6 Gran Coupe Launch Edition is finished in an exclusive Pure Metal Silver paint combined with two-tone upholstery for the interior. The seat centers, lower dashboard and door inserts are offered in Merino Silverstone, and the seat bolsters, center console, upper dashboard and carpeting are offered in black.

The front and rear seats, dashboard, and the upper door parts are wrapped in black leather with contrasting Silverstone stitching. The rest of the interior is trimmed in a deep luster of BMW Individual Piano Black. As a standard feature, the M6 Launch Edition comes with a Bang & Olufsen audio system.

The M6 GranCoupe made its debut at the end of 2012 and will be put on sale this month.

Just like with all the other M6 models, the Gran Coupe version is powered by a 4.4-liter V-8 engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology that delivers a total of 560 horsepower between 6,000 and 7,000 rpm and a peak torque of 502 pound-feet between 1,500 and 5,750 rpm.

This amount of power is enough to sprint the car from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 4.2 seconds and up to a 189 mph.

BMW Group Canada has offered a once in a lifetime opportunity to its customers thanks to a partnership between BMW Group Canada and BMW Individual. A select group of customers recently travelled to the BMW Welt International Delivery Centre to take delivery of their all-new 2014 BMW M6 Gran Coupé Individual Launch Edition vehicles.

Finished in exclusive Pure Metal Silver paintwork, the special edition is also equipped with exclusive two-tone upholstery, with Merino Silverstone seat centres, lower dashboard panels and door inserts and black seat bolsters, centre console, upper dashboard and carpeting. Extensive Silverstone contrast stitching is applied to the black leather surfaces, including front and rear seats, dashboard and upper door parts. Interior trim is finished in the deep luster of BMW Individual Piano Black and the cabin experience further enhanced by a state-of-the-art Bang & Olufsen audio system.

After receiving their vehicles at the BMW Welt, the new M6 Gran Coupé owners are set to embark on a four day scenic drive event through Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Italy. This first-class drive adventure will take place over 1100km of breathtaking terrain perfectly suited to demonstrate the luxury and performance of the newest member of the BMW M family.

The trip includes first class accommodations, a drive from Munich to Nürburgring, participation in the M festival, a helicopter ride over the 24h race track during the race as well as a chance to visit the BMW test centre and meet the BMW racing team.
