BMW M6 Gran Coupé

The new M6 Gran Coupé won't be making its online debut until the first days of December, when we will have more information on the car, while its public premiere will take place at the 2013 North American International Auto Show in Detroit in mid-January.

The sport saloon's body gets all the usual "M" styling cues, from the beefier bumpers and side skirts, to the carbon fiber roof, the quad tailpipes and 20–inch wheels.

The S63Tü 4.4-liter bi-turbo V8 with 553hp (560PS) and 680Nm (501 lb-ft) makes yet another appearance on a BMW M model after the M5 Sedan and M6 Coupe and Cabriolet, while it's also closely related to the unit powering the X5M and X6M crossover.
