The BMW650i an Exclusive Review for The Readers

17 March 2009 10 Comments

Okay, I must confess, this sunday when I was at Cannaught Place (a posh shopping locale) at New Delhi, India, I didn’t imagine that I would really bump into a spanking new BMW650i parked right in front of the showroom!

Well, on anyother day when CP is bustling with people there would not be any chances of having such a close look at the car, but wallah, sunday the market is closed and hence I present to you the closest you can get (other than buying the amazingly awesome machine) to the BMW650i.

Thanks to a friend (Abhinav) who clicked the pictures!

The BMW 650i front

The BMW 650i from the front, dont you feel like getting in it, well, there is more to come, so read on!! The BMW 650i belongs to the BMW 6 series and is available in the convertible mode as well. Gosh I so wish, I could have presented you guys with it, but well right now, feast your eyes with the coupe!

The Stats!

4.8 litres with 360 Horse Power. The power unit provides for an amazingly smooth experience of RAW POWER in your very own hands! Its like taming your own beast. At 6300rpm well, feeling breathless aint a word anymore, is it?!

Engine: The 8 cylinder V8 engine delivers impressive performance, the technology makes driving an effortless task (I am sure many a Delhi’tesĀ  would love effortless driving), looking at the jams everywhere!

The Design

BMW 650i - backThe BMW 650i from the back! Gosh…did I hear you saying? Apart from the BMW logo, the LED lights, are sleekly designed and integrate within the frame of the car in a seamless manner. The lights are not bulging out and hence complement the streamline design of the car.

BMW 650i wheelsAlloy, YES! Ohh, I’d love to take this on for a ride and burn some rubber!! The front brakes of the car are Disc and the alloy wheels by design complement the sleek and seamless shape of the machine. The steel shining bright with the sunshine falling on it, well…this is a sight in itself!

The 6 gears automatic transmission, makes the whole proposition, nothing short of : Give it to me, I wanna drive this one!

BMW 650i interiorOkay, so I apologize that the interiors are not very clear, will soon get a better picture, the upholstery is pure suede and soft cream in color. The pitch black steering wheel gels with the dashboard, boasting of some amazing technology, which asks you to do not much. The contrast of black and soft cream, gives this design a look which is Bold, Flashy, Classy and yet so Subtle!

BMW 650i the rooftopSo, how could I miss the sunroof. Amazing tranlucent black glass, which shades from the sun and still lets you have all of it :) look at the reflection of the ‘white pole’ on the sun roof and this is in broad daylight.

I would want your feedback on this review, please leave your comment and I would be able to present a LIVE review of the amazing machine, in Full Action!

    First of all, i would like to tell all of you a very bad news…the coupe version of the car is priced at (Sadly) the odd side of Rs. 79 Lakhs, and thats Ex-Showroom, we’d have to add all kinds of duties and taxes on it, if we barely manage to buy one. The Convertible is up for sale at approx Rs. 88 Lakhs (Ex-Showroom)

    After the sad (!) news, kudos to you Paritosh for a very good cover of the car, though would have been way better if you could have managed to get into the driver’s seat.

    Cheers,
    Paritosh

    @ Lalit : You may be right, but a true blue beemer fan wont mind shelling out an additional 22k benjamins to get what he loves. Its all about Brand Loyalty and Brand Image ;)
