2012 BMW 6-Series Outside
With a new "shark nose" grille forward sloping and deep, flat-bodied, the 2012 BMW 6-series looks sleek with clean body and an elegant design.

On convertible models, buttresses flank of the small, flat rear window. A great feature of what is in place is that the rear window can stay without the top, making it as a wind buffering without having to be installed in a place that cuts back the interior space.
