[Photos] BMW M Performance Parts for 6 Series GT Unveiled!

The words 6 Series GT is almost synonymous to sporty and agile. BMW claims that this Gran Turismo model is a comfortable cruiser that doesn’t mind being in a hurry. To boost the look and performance even more, BMW decided to launch a full M Performance parts catalogue for the new model. Check out the photos below:

Available from the November market launch of the car, the new M Performance parts will be enhancing both the interior and exterior of the 6 Series GT. Very high BMW Group standards were used in creating these parts so customers can be assured of excellent material selection, design and quality of workmanship. If you decide to purchase any of these items, it would not affect the warranty of the vehicle.

An M Performance exhaust will be available for the 6 Series GT range and this brings a new sound and look to the car that also enhances the look of its rear end. Made out of stainless steel, it will probably make the biggest difference on the 630i model that uses a 2-liter 4-cylinder engine. There will also be an M Performance exhaust available for the US-bound 640i while diesel models will be left out. Depending on engine type and equipment, the exhaust comes with either round or trapezoid tailpipe trims in chrome or carbon fiber. The round tailpipes feature an engraved M logo and the trapezoid tailpipes the M Performance inscription.

The 21″ M Performance light alloy wheels are also awesome additions. These are manufactured using weight-saving forging methods and feature a two-level double-spoke design in bi-color composition. The exclusively designed wheels have mixed tires measuring 245/35 R21 on the front axle and 275/30 R21 on the rear axle, complete with emergency running properties. The sport braking system, which is also available for the new BMW 6 Series Gran Turismo, optimizes both the dynamic driving experience as well as the car’s visual impact.

Having inner vented, perforated lightweight construction brake discs with 4-piston fixed caliper brakes made of aluminum on the front axle and single-piston floating caliper brakes on the rear axle, braking will be drastically improved. Red brake calipers serve as a visual indication of the fact that the design of the BMW M Performance sport brake system is derived from motor racing. Other M Performance parts include gloss black kidney grilles, black trim bars of the air flap control and carbon fiber mirror covers completing the exterior and performance upgrades.

For the interior, the M Performance catalogue has M Performance sports steering wheel available with alcantara-covered grip areas, large thumb rests and a slightly flattened lower section. Nappa leather both in the upper and lower section as well as on the steering wheel trim, a silver-grey cross-stitch seam and the red central marking at the 12 o’clock position round off the highly dynamic design of the BMW M Performance sports steering wheel. It also features shift paddles for manually selecting gears in conjunction with the 8-speed Steptronic sports transmission. BMW M Performance foot mats are also available in the cockpit product range.

All original BMW Accessories will be sold and installed through the BMW dealer network, BMW sales subsidiaries and BMW Service Partners.
