2013 BMW 640i Gran Coupe Test Drive & Luxury Car Video Review
http://www.autobytel.com/bmw/640-gran-coupe/2013/ For year the BMW 6-series came in 2 different body styles: a coupe and a convertible. But now with the other luxury car manufacturers offering 4-door luxury coupe models, BMW has jumped on the bandwagon making sure not to miss out on any opportunities. The 2013 BMW 640i Gran Coupe is poised to take on the Audi A7, Porsche Panamera, and the Mercedes-Benz CLS. The Gran Coupe essentially takes the 6-series 2-door coupe body, moves the B-Pillar forward, and adds 2 more doors. The 2013 BMW 640i Gran Coupe is appropriate for someone who really wants a 2-door coupe but occasionally needs room for 4 passengers. The base price on the Gran Coupe is $76,000.
The 2013 BMW 640i is powered by a turbocharged 3.0 liter inline 6-cylinder engine that makes 315 horsepower and 332 lb-ft. of torque. The 8-speed automatic transmission is very responsive and quick. There are paddle shifters located on the steering wheel for those who like a more involved driving role. The BMW 640i Gran Coupe has a couple of different driving modes from Sport+ which enhances performance, to Comfort which softens up the suspension and ride, to ECO mode which targets the best fuel economy possible.
The exterior of the 2013 BMW 640i Gran Coupe is comprised of a very sleek profile and a wide stance. The proportions of this luxury car are very elegant and sporty at the same time. The paint is The Gran Coupe can be ordered with BMW's xDrive all wheel drive system. With the BMW Individual Package you can get a couple of premium colors including the Frozen Bronze Metallic as seen here. Interior space is less than a larger sedan but the Gran Coupe is still a very comfortable and upscale car. The ergonomics are great and the rear can seat 3 people if necessary. As with any other BMW, the materials used on the interior are high quality.
The 2013 BMW 640i is the best of both worlds with its 2-door styling and 4-door convenience. BMW has raised the bar with this Gran Coupe edition of the 6-Series. The coupe looks great on the outside and is packed with lots of technology and standard luxury amenities.

NEW!!! 2014 600HP LEXUS GS-F
AGGIORNATO APRILE 2013:
I rumors riguardanti una berlina sportiva con il marchio GS F circolano già dal 2010, ma fino ad ora non è stata data come risposta altro che "verrà commercializzata con un V8 compresso" e "avrà un nuovo V8″.
Sebbene nessuna informazione sulla Lexus GS F sia stata ancora rilasciata per il momento, il debutto della Lexus GS 350 F Sport nel 2011 ha fatto capire che le intenzioni di produrre un'auto più imponente della IS F da parte del marchio di Lexus fossero buone.
Mentre Lexus ci sta nascondendo i suoi piani futuri, la ditta ha da poco registrato un marchio con il nome "GS F", ma solamente nel mercato statunitense. Questo vorrebbe dire che l'ammiraglia GS F si farà davvero? Questa domanda rimane ancora senza risposta considerando che non è la prima volta che un costruttore registra un marchio senza magari poi avere un risultato positivo.
Visto che la IS F è stata categoricamente smentita, ci potrebbero essere più probabilità per la GS F. In più la conferma del coupé sportivo, su base LF-LC Concept, potrebbe ampliare la gamma dei veicoli più radicali all'interno di Lexus.
Per il momento quindi rimangono molte domande a cui si troverà una risposta senza dubbio nei mesi che verranno.
