The 6 Series Gran Turismo attempts to combine the capabilities of a sedan, fastback, wagon, and SUV, and it mostly delivers, but its exterior looks a bit confused. Inside, the 640i xDrive AWD looks and feels gorgeous, using a 5 Series dashboard and offering 7 Series levels of comfort and support. Tan leather, wood trim, suede-covered headrest pillows on the rear seats, and a huge panoramic moonroof make the cabin memorable. And the 6 Series includes a couple of features that are optional for other BMWs as standard equipment, but still offers plenty of upgrades.
A single trim means a single powertrain: a 3.0-liter turbocharged inline 6-cylinder with 335 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque and an 8-speed automatic that sends power to all four wheels. Our reviewer strongly recommends the Dynamic Handling package, which adds an adaptive air suspension, rear-wheel steering, and Active Roll Stabilization. He also notes that BMW may currently have the best tech in the luxury segment. Read more on CarGurus: cargur.us/nl6rr

Great review! I think this is one of the best looking cars available, next to the Audi A7 and Porsche Panamera. I drive a 3GT now, and love it. I have always liked the rare and under appreciated wagons and hatches. With 3 growing kids, we are ready for the big brother. I am 6'2" ex football player and my 16yo son is approaching 6'3". There isn't another utilitarian vehicle in the BMW line-up that accommodates, except the 7, which I don't want. I don't like suv's. And german sedans dont have room like they need, especially in back. I drive a group of 4 to lunch regularly, and need the room. American sedans are big, but that's about their only good attribute. I think BMW has listened to their customers needs and delivered the perfect jack-of-all-trades.
Andrew I think you have just expressed the opinion of many who are in the same shoes you are in right now!
Most underrated post-Bangle Bimmer ever
The bobblehead comparison was a nice touch!
Nice review! In recent years I have had a 7, X6 and now 6GT. As you say this ticks all the boxes with space and comfort galore. The 630d GT also has a great blend of performance and economy. Happy!
Great car! I test drove this today and absolutely loved it. I currently have a 550GT and i'm looking to upgrade to a 640GT. All the things I may not have particularly cared for in the 550 GT have been addressed. This is a much sleeker car with multiple personalities on the road!
Weird looking, but i like it. You won't see yourself coming and going. Excellent review by the way.
Have to agree with you on the looks.
Good review I love it
Great looking car but where can I get the sweater?
Great review; great car. Very roomy. Nice performance.
Bmw 5 GT it so relaxing car to travel in long trips, where I am very happy with it, guys if own a BMW GT(no matter 5 GT or 6 GT) you will never know what car to buy after that, cause you will be for sure excited with it.
My average joe Honda Crosstour is amazing when I trade in this will be the choice
No thumbs down on this video?
Wow a first to see on CZcams!
"You don't really want to trust computers do you?" - my sentiments exactly. Can you tell I work in IT?
Thinking of getting this in 2022 thoughts ?
Nice arms!
It should have a SAAB badge and be the G6 (Griffin6). But since GM killed them I’ll buy this instead. Love it!
I’ve got the 630d in the UK 🇬🇧 6 cylinder diesel with 265bhp and 475lb ft torque.....it’s a beast! Love it 😊
what do you like at most and what you don't like about that car? is it expensive to menain?😊
Makes sense once you step inside, but not as much as a wagon would.
mfmf100 this actually has more cargo room than a 5 wagon
The shape makes it look like a big prius
What is the minimum turning circle on this thing?
the dynamic handling package includes active steering which makes the turning circle a lot smaller than you would expect!
the more I like this 6GT, the more I wish they just give us the 5 wagon
@Franz Fanon M5 Touring
It’s cognac leather, not tan
I’m more a fan of Audi’s sport back model. Looks more like a sedan but with all the space.
I wish i would afford this
Styling is ungainly...My money buys cars that are beautifully designed and look great!
The driver sight lines are NOT clear at all for the C pillar. Without blind spot monitoring, you can't change lanes to the right
Good review Clifford! As for the car, I believe BMW has lost its way. They are trying too hard to make cars for everyone, rather than focusing on their roots of developing true driver enthusiast cars.
Peter 63 couldn't agree more. I'm just happy the M2 still comesmin a manual
Good review but imho it’s sounds a lot like an Car 🚙 commercial rather than an car 🚙 review seriously the car 🚙 is good but please be objective 👍🏼 in your reviews as I feel like that you work for BMW
Terrible colour...
Sooo tired of all kind of shade of gray - black. I got a f13 in ''Melbourne red metallic''. Awesome
It's not ugly... it's just weird 😂
I don't think BMW could build a good looking car if they tried. I really dont get the appeal with modern BMWs. This thing is huge and frumpy. Then there is the price...yikes
The 3 series GT is gorgeous, but this is not. Until BMW decides to make a minivan, this will reign as the ugliest BMW. Actually, they could build a minivan that’s more attractive.
golfbuddy1969 there’s no such car - a 4 series gran coupe or a 3 series gt
Wayne Readshaw yes sorry I meant the 3 GT. And for that matter, the 4 Gran Coupe is prettier yet.
3gt and this are very similar. The added length of this car draws out the lines and I think makes it look even better. I currently drive a 3gt
There is a bmw minivan in the uk, the 2series active tourer. I don’t think it’s available in the states. Based on the mini of all things.
LOL. Gran Turismo. More like Gran Hatchback. No fancy words can sweeten the ridiculous price for such an ugly car.
Life is too short to drive an ugly car. This thing is awful. Now the 6 series gran coupe is a beautiful car.
