BMW enthusiasts can now look forward to the sleek design and unlimited power with a driving experience nothing short of exhilarating.

The BMW M6 Convertible combines impressive driving dynamics with supreme exclusivity, and aesthetic looks with dynamic elegance through and through. The open-air version of the BMW M6 high-performance sports car makes open-air motoring an absolutely unique experience and is unprecedented in style.

"With the arrival of BMW M6 Convertible to Kuwait we are happy that our customers, who have been awaiting the arrival of this car, can come and see the power, and performance of this vehicle, and its intense style," said Mr. Mohammed Alghanim, deputy general manager, Ali Alghanim & Sons Automotive Co.

"We hope that our customers will enjoy the power and versatility of this vehicle, with the weather changing to the better, the M6 Convertible will be an unforgettable experience to drive."

Even when the M6 Convertible dons the roles of a sports car or a luxury convertible, the driver-oriented cockpit ensures all functions are placed exactly in the right ergonomic arrangement on or around the steering wheel. Both the speedometer and rev counter come in chrome surrounds, the driver receiving clear information from white figures on a black face, and indicator needles finished in traditional BMW M red.

A close look at the heart of the M6 Convertible reveals a V10 power unit developed by BMW M GmbH, which is one of the most fascinating engines ever offered in a four-seater production convertible. And this is no surprise, considering that this supreme engine is based on BMW's world-famous ten-cylinder Formula 1 power unit, acknowledged as the most powerful engine in the highest category of motor sport until the change in rules and regulations in 2006.

The high-speed engine concept offers decisive benefits: First, output per liter of 101 horsepower generally experienced only in motor sport, with the engine's maximum power of 507 hp or 373 kW coming from relatively small engine capacity of 4,999 cc. Second, the compact design and dimensions of the engine serve to reduce the overall weight of this high-performance power unit to just 240 kg or 529 lb.

In the sum total of all its features, the BMW M6 Convertible is beyond any competition. It is a high-performance convertible thrilling in every respect with looks characterized by dynamism and exclusivity and truly fascinating to behold. So there can be no doubt about it: Compared with other high-performance open two-seater, the BMW M6 Convertible comes closest to the concept of the ideal car in this segment.
