A top-down fantasy, meticulously
assembled from the ground up.

The BMW convertible you’ve always dreamed of, with a reputation
we’ve always built on. The BMW M6 Convertible recalls generations of
innovative BMW racing research and technology. First and foremost, it’s
an M Car. Which means you’re in for a drive you’ll simply never forget.
The highest standards in automotive engineering come together so
seamlessly in the M6 Convertible, you’ll have only two things on your
mind: the feel of 500 horses at your command, and the next riveting
mile. The amazement doesn’t end there: put down the M6 Convertible’s
top and suddenly the great outdoors and the open road meet in one
unparalleled driving experience.


A vehicle that’s capable of such relentlessly exhilarating performance should look equally
stunning. For all its racetrack-inspired glory, the body of the M6 Convertible is grace incarnate,
with gorgeous and inspiring lines from head to toe. From the bold front grille to the sensuously
clean side-panel design, from the sweeping wheel arches to the glistening stainless steel
tailpipes. At ground level, the sporty 19" M Radial Spoke (Style 167M) light cast alloy wheels
add to the aggressive look, as the M6’s low-proﬁle performance tires1 grip the pavement.
Every inch of the M6 demands attention as it soars effortlessly down the highway.

With the BMW M6 Convertible, there’s no compromise to be made
between nature and machine. With the softtop down, not only do
you have a great view and all the headroom in the world, you still
have enough room in the trunk for two golf bags and a suitcase. The
independently controlled rear window can be put up even with the
top down to prevent excess wind in the vehicle during a long drive,
or leave it open with the top up to keep air ﬂowing. Either way, the
M6 Convertible lets you enjoy all the scenery, the sunshine, and
the powerful delight of open-air cruising.

technology “steplessly” varies valve timing in response to engine speed, load and temperature,
enhancing low- to medium-speed torque and emission control. This system, which was
developed speciﬁcally for BMW M engines, uses its own high-pressure oil pump, rather than
operating on pressure from the engine oil pump. As a result of BMW’s innovative engine
technology, this comfortable convertible is transformed into a spectacular sporting machine.

A 7-speed SMG DRIVELOGIC transmission puts you in control of 11 different gearshifting
programs – six manual and ﬁve automatic – to provide you with the power to choose your
own driving style preferences. And for the traditionalist who prefers the interaction of shifting
a manual transmission and using a clutch pedal, a 6-speed transmission is also available.
So wherever you go, you can stay focused on one of the M6 Convertible’s most satisfying
features: the roar of the engine.

Far from remaining in the realm of myth, the M6 is the stunning

breathing, open-air Ultimate Driving Machine.® No softtop BMW

Transmissions 60 | 61

It takes a
high-performance transmission
to harness 500 horses.
To make the best use of the high-revving V-10 engine, BMW developed
two appropriate transmissions: the advanced 7-speed Sequential
Manual Gearbox (SMG) with DRIVELOGIC, and a smooth-shifting
6-speed manual transmission.

Adapted for street use from BMW Motorsport technology, SMG allows
for a true manual transmission without a clutch pedal. The driver can
keep the accelerator depressed through upshifts. An electrohydraulic
system shifts the gears electronically, without any mechanical connec-
tion, for shift speeds as fast as 80 milliseconds – far faster than even
the most experienced driver using a clutch pedal.

DRIVELOGIC gives the driver a choice of 11 gearshift programs to tailor
the driving experience to individual preferences and driving conditions.
Six of these programs are manual (S mode), where the driver must
shift gears either through the stick on the center console or through
the paddles on the steering wheel – the right paddle for upshifts, the
left paddle for downshifts. Five automated programs (A mode) are
also available for comfortable cruising or sporty acceleration. Unlike
an automatic transmission, the SMG does not have a torque converter
taking up energy and reducing performance. The SMG even auto-
matically blips the throttle between gears when downshifting.

In S mode, integrated LEDs within the tachometer and also in the
Head-up Display illuminate, indicating the best time to upshift.
Hill Start Assist helps you start smoothly up steep inclines. SMG
also helps you drive hills more smoothly, automatically monitoring
the slope to help minimize gear changes uphill and maximize engine
braking downhill.

BMW and the environment.
BMW is a strong proponent of the environment and social responsibility. It is important to manage the
earth’s resources responsibly, and not jeopardize the needs of future generations. That is why BMW
makes vehicles that minimize adverse environmental impact, from production (pollution prevention and
waste minimization at the plant) through owner use (low emissions) to eventual disposal (easy drainability
of all ﬂuid-related components and easy neutralization of all pyrotechnic devices).

This effort has been recognized worldwide, and as a result, we are pleased to have received numerous
environmental honors. In the U.S., for example, the Environmental Protection Agency accepted BMW’s
Spartanburg, SC production and manufacturing facility as a charter member of the agency’s National
Environmental Performance Track. Internationally, BMW AG – the parent company of both BMW of
North America and BMW Manufacturing Co., Spartanburg, SC – was the ﬁrst automotive company to
be represented on the Dow Jones Sustainability Group Index, and has remained on the Index ever since.
At BMW, we strive for high performance in everything we do.
