Test Drive BMW 6 series coupe from 2011 coupe

Ivan Dykhovichich

While my M3 in the Body E46 rests at the service station, Christian Kremer, my good friend, issued a BMW 650ci to the star test. I was curious to compare the net sport, which charges the treshka, with the modern interpretation of the Gran Turismo from BMW.
 
Of course, this car is stronger from the driver than Emka. Steering with a variable gear ratio, independently dubbing stabilizers, active shock absorbers why all this? To make a car from the category a lot in one! He can be a fierce athlete, and it can comfortably and quietly carry the owner home. It all depends on the mood. And just under the mood exists in the cabin of the machine the function that I estimate, you can press the button to bring a car into a state of complete combat readiness! I was quiet, it was in thoughts. And then suddenly the illness came, the blood pressed the bond on the button, and under you almost a car.
The car rides very correctly. And all the electronics is competently configured under the average (in preparation) of the driver who could hardly go so quickly and accurately without the help of all these systems. Proofreaders act skillfully and imperceptibly. It is finely played by the owner, forcing it to believe that it himself is so well controlled with a five-liter V8 and rear-wheel drive into any weather. BMW 6 series is a machine for an elegant driver who wants to enjoy and does not want to bathe.
But you know, even despite the abundance of zaulny systems, I easily found a common language with a coupe. That is, I felt a car. After all, as you know, the better you feel the car, the faster you go.
In addition, it is not necessary to forget that the main collars can be completely disconnected and staying with the machine one to one. This, by the way, from the driver of the Bavarians. And I consider it right. If you take yourself a coupe of the Grand Vendor, which is trained with excellent road manners, you can once demand a maximum of him. When you are ready. Of course, pleases the abundance of service functions. For example, projection on the windshield of instrument readings. Made elegant. Some brands like to stuff the top versions salons with a variety of buttons. Of course, in the dark, all this is beautiful, but I have more like a minimalist approach. About how here. There are few buttons, but there is an idrive that logically combined everything under one roof. I do not know that there is awesome. I have no problems with the interface.
Suspension is chic. The car goes smoothly, well eats a bad road.
And the box was delighted at all. Works gently, without jerks and shocks. In this case, switching is very fast. Motor song. He takes enough heavy car in the distance, as if the empty. And his character is correct, it is revealed in the highest range of revolutions. The sound is also quite good.
The car is elegant and non-liberty. This car is Neuponsky. He has no pronounced sexuality and the test of Italians. He is self-sufficient.
Well, a summary such creators of the BMW 650 managed to combine the ease of sports with ordinary human comfort. It is the main thing that I understood for myself.
The car is made in terms of the client perfectly.
