6 Series
The BMW 6 Series builds on BMW's sporty heritage with aggressive lines and an incredible motor to back the design up. Available in coupe and convertible trims with a standard 4.8 liter engine producing 360 horsepower and 360 lb-ft of torque, the 6-series is a popular choice that exceeds expectations.

USA models have the 155 limiter. We got my M5 speedometer reading 177 but we checked it with a hand held GPS and it was 155. I guess the speedometers are not accurate at that high speed.

Sigh... Don't these fools ever learn. Flogging only works with a targeted audience (in this case, probably a website where someone is discussing going to China, moving to China, actually *wanting* to learn chinese, etc.)

- The post I referred to was removed, thus the seemingly random posting on my part.
