www.oakvillebeaver.com The Oakville Beaver, Wednesday June 28, 2006 - 27 The new BMW M6 Convertible BMW's fastest ever soft-top, the BMW M6 Convertible, will make its debut at the British International Motor Show (July 18 - 30). Powered by the award-winning 5.0-litre V10 engine and using a host of F1-derived technology, the BMW M6 Convertible combines all the performance of the M6 Coupé but with the added luxury of open-air motoring. The new open-top M6 uses BMW's 4,999cc V10 powerplant developing 507 hp. This powers the car from 0-62mph in 4.8 seconds before going on to an electronically limited top speed of 155mph. Unchecked, the car could continue to a top speed approaching 200 mph. Drive is via a seven-speed Sequential Manual Gearbox with Drivelogic - the world's first such transmission that has already seen service in the BMW M5 and the M6 Coupé. The BMW M6 Convertible's Drivelogic function offers the driver a choice of 11 different gear change options - five in auto mode and six in manual mode - each offering a different speed of gearshift. In its fastest setting, the driver of an M6 Convertible can make gear changes in just 50 milliseconds - far faster than can be achieved by an experienced driver using a conventional manual gearbox. BMW's Variable M Differential and BMW M's version of the Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) system provide the highest levels of traction and the ultimate dynamic capability Auto EVERYTHING FUSION a NEW IN Fusion SE* W 2006 May 13 to August 31, 2006 To ensure a refined interior, the BMW M6 Convertible comes with a triple-layered hood for the ultimate in noise and heat insulation and, like other 6 Series Convertible models, also incorporates a Fin Structure roof for a Coupé-like silhouette. This triple-layered hood contains a middle component of polyurethane (PUR) foam. The resulting fabric sandwich gives the car near identical standards of acoustics and thermal insulation as a fixed-head coupé. To complete the sporting design of the M6 Convertible, it features bespoke 19-inch double spoke light alloy wheels shod with low profile performance tires - 255/40 R19 at the front with 285/35 R19 at the rear. Large vented and drilled high performance brakes deliver excellent stopping power. The front discs measure 374mm in diameter while the rears are 370mm. The front and rear styling also highlights the dramatic stance of the M6 Convertible when compared with the 'standard' 6 Series Convertible. BMW M's signature quad exhaust pipes also protrude from the restyled rear valance that delivers enhanced aerodynamic efficiency and drivetrain cooling. FAST THES LANE E 5 S!
