New M6 coupe @ Universal Studios

Sorry -
No pics, but it is real. There is currently a cinnamon metallic brown coupe undergoing a photo shoot on the back lot. Very tight security, and since I value my job, no pics.
It's very low, and has beautiful black wheels with many curved spokes.
It is one of the best looking BMWs that I have ever seen, and I've been looking at them for 40 years.
You are going to love it.

But they'd never know it was you.

hehe. Good call on no pics (job wise), but you know all of us forum warriors will hate you for it!

So if it's at U.Studios, does that mean it is going to be filmed in a movie soon?

No, they're shooting stills...I think it's for promo pictures. It's just the car on a barren street, nothing else. I went back to look again, and the brown car with black wheels is gone, and a gold car with silver, straight spokes was on the street. Kinda looked like a 6, kinda didn't...

Thanks for the confirmation, Scott. When I asked the ad agency guys if it was a M6 they got a severe case of lip lock!

Mission Impossible : Ghost Protocol is being released by Paramount pictures.

The M6 Coupe is over for film and photography in the greater Los Angeles area.

BMW are also involved with Sony "The Girl with The Dragon Tattoo" and Warner Bros. "The Dark Knight Rises" also with BMW Motorrad.
And two other projects that will feature the Vision Connected Drive and the two i cars.

SCOTT26, you mentioned an official launch in December, do you have any update on how much longer we have to wait to see the car? Also, do you know when they are expecting to start delivering customer cars.

Sorry for all the questions but you seem to know what you are talking about!
