Introduced for the 2004 model year, the E63 coupe and E64 convertible 6 Series resurrected BMW's grand tourer nameplate after a 14-year absence. The design, led by Chris Bangle, was controversial at the time for its unconventional lines and trunk lid, but it has since found an audience that appreciates its unique presence. The lineup was powered primarily by the N62 V8 engine, first as the 4.4L in the 645Ci and later as the 4.8L in the 650i, offering a blend of smooth power and a great exhaust note.
The market for the non-M 6 Series is driven by its compelling value. For a modest investment, buyers get a comfortable, fast, and well-equipped GT that still feels modern. While the V10-powered M6 occupies a different performance and price bracket, the 645Ci and 650i are appreciated for being more reliable and easier to live with daily. As these cars have fully depreciated, they now represent a stable buy for enthusiasts seeking style and performance on a budget.
Buying Tips
- Check the N62 V8 for signs of oil consumption, like blue smoke on startup, which points to failing valve stem seals. Also, look for coolant leaks from the valley pan coolant transfer pipe, an expensive repair.
- Test all electronics thoroughly. The first-generation iDrive can be slow, and water leaks in the trunk can damage sensitive electronic modules. On E64 convertibles, operate the top several times to ensure the complex mechanism works correctly.
- The ZF 6-speed automatic transmission is stout but requires fluid and filter changes. Any hesitation or harsh shifting could indicate internal wear or a failing mechatronics unit.
- Inspect the suspension for worn control arm bushings. If equipped with Dynamic Drive, check the active anti-roll bars for fluid leaks, as replacement is costly.
- Scrutinize the service history. These are complex cars where deferred maintenance on items like fluids, gaskets, and suspension components can lead to huge bills.
