The X6M is a whole different animal than the 650, the 650 is not even in the same league. Now if you want to get an M6 that is a different story lol.

The 2013 650 has some nice upgrades. I vote for that.

My vote should count twice. I just sold back a 2012 650 xdrive convertible for a 2013 X6M. I'm happier in the X6.

Thanks so very very much guys!!!

After much much struggle....I pulled the trigger!!!! Got the 650 last night.

The blind spots in the 2013 X6M resulted in backing up in to my son's brand new 2012 328 base model. Thank God no one was hurt, just majorly dinted my pocket on body repairs (brand new front bumper on the 328 and replacement parts on the X6M) & upside down on the X6M.

As much as I love the power and adrenaline driving the X6M, 650 is a tad more "ladylike", for now.....

Thanks so much guys! Pics to come!!!

p.s. Thanks Joseph Ra & Yiwen Ting at Shelly BMW

Given the challenges you have had, I think the car with the least amount of blind spots is best. Good luck, congratulations, and please be safe!

That dealer should be buying you both birthday and xmas gifts every year. Your car/truck history is AMAZING! That is/would be my dream to trade in cars like that! Would love to see pics of the 650 - any chance it is vermillion red?

Hi!!! Thank so much.

You have some amazing rides yourself! I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to see pics { & take a spin :-) } in your 1M! OMG!!! I love the 1M!! Fast, nimble, major kick-ass(sorry) ride!

The 2013 X6M was with red interior. The 650 is carbon black on black.

Attached are pics of the 650 (camera phone, sorry about the poor resolution).

Thanks so very very much again guys.

Congrats on your new 2013 X6M. It's totally different; 650 v. X6M.

BTW, where are the rear vents (if any) on the 650? I don't see any...
Like the 3 series coupe, M3 coupe, there are rear vents...I don't see any on the 650 coupe....

Now if I had to chose the 6 Series, I would get the Frozen Bronze Metallic with the Opal White/Amaro Brown Merino Leather. I saw that combo in Berlin, and it was INCREDIBLE. Your car does look Sleek!

Congrats on the 650 , how come you had a tough time backing up the x6 btw. The rear camera and sensors should be good?

You two should have hooked up earlier - you BOTH could have saved a bundle

BTW, Carbon black rocks.

Oh and since you asked, here is the picture the day the 1M was dropped off at my house (yes in Feb ). Poor X6 in the background (my neighbors driveway).
