2005 BMW 6 Series 645Ci 2dr Convertible (4.4L 8cyl 6M)

Review

Driving this BMW is a great experience each time I start the engine, except for the iPod screen warning that comes up everytime. I treat it like an annoying child, and try not to pay attention to it. Finally, though I have to acknowledge it to work the radio, ect. Oh well, small price to pay I guess, for a great car. I was surprised the visibility in the convertible with the top up was excellent. This is really a 2 person car, with room for 2 small children.

Favorite Features

Great features are the handling, and response. Really wonderful. The seats for highly adjustible. The sound system is very good. The convertible top is a snap to operate. Plenty room in the trunk.

Suggested Improvements

Rework the computer to be more user friendly while driving.

Review

We loved everything about our 2005 645I convertible. Talk about a car that catchs everyone's eye and is a blast to drive! But....we had so many problems with ours we regretfully ended up giving it back under the lemon law. It was in the BMW service dept 32 days between July 6 and Oct 1, 2006 - not counting weekends! We were told it had 19 computers by 15 manufacturers and the glitchs weren't worked out yet. We expected more from an $80,000 car but agree we'd buy another one if we were promised it wouldn't have so many problems!

Favorite Features

I love how snappy and powerful it is plus the ride is unbelievably smooth!!!

Suggested Improvements

Definitely needed a bigger back seat and 2nd cup holder.

2005 BMW 6 Series 645Ci 2dr Coupe (4.4L 8cyl 6M)

Review

My first BMW is my 99-528 that I drive daily and can't say enough about so I was destined for another. I was between a 645 and 745. I chose the 645 and have not been disappointed. I do miss the ability to take the 3rd or 4th passenger on occasion, however the ride, handling and looks far outweigh that. I also own a 911 and am considering getting rid of that to upgrade the 528 to a 745. The 645 gives me eveything I was getting from the 911. The only problem I have had is the navigation has been occasionally acting up, saying "can't read disc" I'm scheduled to take it in next week so hope it's an easy correction.

2005 BMW 6 Series 645Ci 2dr Coupe (4.4L 8cyl 6M)

Review

Don't drive this car unless you're prepared to purchase one. I went to the dealer to test drive a 7 series. I thought I would just compare it against the 6, so I test drove one and purchased it right afterwards. This car is above and beyond any thing I have ever owned. I like it. I purchased the sport model and the back seat isn't a problem. If you want a big back seat buy a 7 series. I love all of it.

Favorite Features

The body style is second to none and the way it drives will blow your mind. Don't drive it unless you want to buy it because you will love it.

2005 BMW 6 Series 645Ci 2dr Convertible (4.4L 8cyl 6M)

Review

Having owned several sports cars such as the 92 Acura NSX, 97 Porsche 993 C2S (911), and 03 Boxster S, I was blown away and extremely impressed with the overall package BMW delivers with its legendary 6 series. Absolutely amazing piece of engineering. I was impressed enough to opt out of another Porsche purchase. Granted it isn’t a Porsche Cab or Carrera, albeit that's probably a good thing. Tight handling, absolutely sexier when you have the top down, and the more I look at this car, the more I lust after it. Great value too. Makes a nice sister to our 2005 745i. Gorgeous, elegant, sleek, and fast.

Favorite Features

Blue Tooth technology, BMW assist, Sirius Satelite Radio, sport package, integrated voice activated navigation, communication, and entertainment system. Streamlined exterior and interior design. So subtle that depending on how you look at it, you find something new each and every time.

Suggested Improvements

Less of a comfy clutch and shifter. Make it a bit more masculine. They've thought of everything when they were dreaming this up. Nicely done.

Review

Just purchased my 645ci May 05 and what a spectacular ride. Turns on a dime. Smooth. Lots of power. Great touring vehicle. This is my third BMW and I rate the BMW as the best to own. Surpasses any other auto I've owned and driven. Can't beat the service and care they give to the customer not to mention the vehicle. I highly recommend this car if you want something practical but sporty. People give second and third looks when you're driving this dream machine. I wouldn't consider another maker. I've been sold on BMW for years. Still have first original/first BMW (525i) When our last child starts driving the Mini Cooper is at the top of the list of consider- ations. Thanks BMW!

Favorite Features

Gosh, what isn't my favorite. Love the Heads-up feature and the navigation. Heated seats. The tight steering and ease in handling. The power is incredible. I love the ability to adjust the lumbar a real plus for those with back problems. Features offered are much more user friendly than my 745i.

Suggested Improvements

I can't think of anything you've left out except maybe a DVD system. I'm sure that's coming in the future. Wished I could've kept my 02 745i by the way. Features offer in 6 series are much more user friendly by the way. Great improvements!

Review

I love it. I love BMWs, compared to my old M3, this car absolutely is amazing and i highly recommend it for anyone looking for a new car. One downside, the back seat could use more headroom and space. The 3 series probably has more than the 6, which is weird. Overall though, the car rocks.

Review

A ride in this car will allow you to forget all of your problems! It is my pleasure everytime I get in this car!

Favorite Features

I love the glass window in the back that can remain up even when the top is down. I also enjoy the voice command and idrive.

Suggested Improvements

It would be nice to see 3 people in the back seat. Also, I dislike the sensors that alert you if there is something in front or behind the car. Sometimes there is a delay in that.
