        6 series video review

        http://5thgear.viper007bond.com/

        I love the British reviewers. I wish the review was longer. please be sure to right click and download as. Its a big file and the review is ~60% of the way in. If you cant get it- basically the reviewer says the new 6 is everything the old one was and more and in person the styling really works. I think out of all the new BMWs this is the best looking one. I wonder how cabrio will look in the rear without the roof to offset its visual weight?

        Great find! I also love the commentary that 5th and Top Gear have. Thanks for sharing.

        great find of a site!
        Those shows are always fun, though not always impartial and unbiased, they do give some good visual presentations!

        Tiff was a little dissapointed by the CL- I think because he wanted more of a drivers car and truth is- the CL just isnt like that. still for highway storming that CL must be fantastic.

        I am now intending to go for the M6 Cabrio with SMG

        Yes, Tiif didnt like it at all:

        Amazonian-coconut paddign in the seats...

        ...another seek display of wealth




        But the "Hippie-tester" really likes BMW. And really enjoyed the 645i. I was surprised it differed so much from Autocars test

        In anycase, someone is doing us a great favour by digitalizing all these great programs

        Gustav,
        I laughed at his comments on the 5 and 7 series: "uhhhh", "ooooooooohhhh noooo" - then he gives the new 6 a big hug. I thought he might go and kiss it!
