The BMW 6-Series GT Doesn't Look So Bad When Turned Into An M6
The BMW 5-series GT is dead. And we’re not exactly shedding a tear over the 5-series derivative - partly because it was always a clunky-looking thing, and partly because it’s already been reborn as the 6-series Gran Turismo. Lucky us.
Visually, it’s an improvement on the old 5er GT, but still no oil painting. But what if M Division got hold of it? This isn’t something we’re expecting, but hey, there’s no harm in imagining. And as ever, we have someone to facilitate our curious dreams: X-Tomi Design.
The Hungarian renderer has given the 6-series GT the full M Division treatment, and the results are pretty interesting. It’s certainly much easier on the eye than the standard car with its big wheels and more aggressive front bumper, and remember, with a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 under the bonnet kicking out around 600bhp, it’s not it’d ever be in your field of vision for particularly long…
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

It looks like a half-melted X6 xD
Customer: “I want a coupe-ish four door, that is in the higher segment, but not an X6 which makes me look like a jerk with a little wiener.”
BMW: “There you go, fam.”
So it’s the gt version of the 5 series that’s now an m6 which is a bigger version of the M5 which is the faster version of the 5 series.
The four-door version, of the two-door version, of the four-door version, of the original two-door car. Seems legit
The hatchback version, of the four-door version coupe, of the two door coupe of the four-door Saloon.
You forgot the original two door car is the two door version of the 4 door 5 series
Lowered x6m
Nope.. still looks ugly IMO
Looks like a boat…
Yeees it does. It’s still awful.
My shooting brake fetish is completed
i have a soft spot for shootingbrakes too, but this, its a half-saloon and half-shootingbrake, as if they couldn’t make their mind up and said “sure that’ll do” and imo its ugly af, almost as bad as a fiat multipla. almost
I quite like this. The angle of the roofline is to steep though. Should be more hatchback-like.
Everything is better with an M (like why get oney when you can get money!)
(I’ll leave now).
