M6 gets two more doors for 2014

BMW revealed their new M6 Gran Coupe December 12, a coupe-style four-door version of their performance trim M6 car.

Like the M5 sedan and M6 coupe, the M6 Gran Coupe, which slots between the two, is powered by a 560-horsepower 4.4-litre V8 with twin turbochargers and direct injection.

The automaker says the rear-wheel drive M6 Gran Coupe should be able to nail 100 km/h from zero in about 4.1 seconds, thanks to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.

You should be able to hit about 250 km/h (155 mph) in the Gran Coupe, and then quickly and easily bring it back to a stop courtesy a set of upsized brake rotors and six-piston calipers, AutoBlog reports.

The M6 Gran Coupe comes with a host of visual tweaks both inside and out, including an exposed carbon fibre roof and 20-inch rims.

The car is designed to take on rival coupe-like sedans like the Audi S7 and Mercedes-Benz CLS63.
