2012 BMW F12/F13 M6 Coupe and Convertible Spied at Nurburgring [Spy Video]

by Ionut Dragomir

The upcoming BMW M6 has been spied once again, but this time on Nurburgring race track and here you can watch the spy video.

In this video, we can see quad exhaust outlets, reworked front and rear ends to snag more airflow while minimizing lift, and a similar but sleeker overall profile compared to the current model.

This model is thought to packing up to 600 horsepower from a tuned-up version of the twin-turbo 4.4-liter V-8 found under the hoods of the X5 M and X6 M and the 2012 BMW M5 unveiled last month, and could potentially be the fastest production car ever launched by BMW.

At this time the official specs are still unknown, so we can just expect figures close to those put out by the M5. That translates to 0-60 mph times of about 4.4 seconds, 0-124 mph in 13.0 seconds, and top speed limited to 155 mph, though a performance pack option that raises the limit north of 180 mph is likely. Combined fuel economy for the M5 is 23.7 mpg in European testing, and the M6 should come in near that mark as well.

Isn’t sure yet, but the 2012 BMW M6 is likely to make its world debut early next year, with sales to start sometime next summer. As for the pricing, expect a starting price of about $115 – 120,000. For our previous spy shots, click here.
