BMW 6 Series coupe 2013 review - CarBuyer

[@redbadger7544]

best looking bmw ever. it will be a timeless classic.

[@janrdoh]

I tried to order this car but they wont let me pay it off over 20 years.

[@theresapryor1589]

Look for a used one

[@gribbles1146]

It’s ok you can buy it now less than 10 years later at like 20% of its original price.

[@salamanejkum]

im happy to say that got one and it is a gem.

[@ThisIsMTH]

Whether that noise is synthesised or not, I am very impressed with how good BMW diesels are nowadays. I would have the 640d in a heartbeat.

[@trayp872]

Matthew Hall get one then lfmao

[@DaniiCEO]

BMW obviously predicted the arrival of the iPhone 6pplus!

[@monterey356]

Really underrated car, every line on it is absolutely perfect.

“No ones phone is that big anymore unless you have a Samsung” says the flexing man now with the large foldable Samsung ...

[@leng85]

This guy is the best car reviewer

[@DasnarkyRemarky]

Okay, so let me clear that up for you. If you watch most of Mat's reviews nearly all of the cars have insanely high mpg's than the US equivalent. The reason is not that Europeans are somehow getting more efficient cars but because of two factors 1) The gallon used in the UK (Imperial Gallon) is 20% larger than ours (primary reason) 2) US mileage estimates (EPA's ratings) are much more stringent reflecting higher standards and real world driving as opposed to the European estimates.

[@maserati155]

its sooooo much better looking than the older one

[@מגזיןהפופוליסט]

Now i can afford this !

[@Top_Gear_Clips_Central]

have u got one?

[@healandgrow6131]

In 2024😂 yes same i am looking to buy this after 10 years

[@shay-jt8su]

I’m buying one too this year 😂

yes its matt cant remember his last name

Yep. He worked for carbuyer before moving to carwow

Yes his been on carbuyer for years

Awesome work bro...probably the best car reviewer on youtube :)

[@imvents]

First time seeing this channel in 2021. Did not expect Mat Watson to be here!!

[@EdvinUhlan]

The samsung-part was easily the best...

[@iantownsend5480]

Yes that is the real noise the car makes, its not fake they pipe the engine noise through the car speakers

[@arthurlewis1000]

Ian Townsend bullshit I have this car and you can hear the difference in the actual diesel engine sound vs the v8 petrol sound played over the speakers when you let down the window

[@UpsideDownCanoe]

Just bought a 640d GranCoupé and I couldn't be happier. I didn't expect it to be such a head turner.

[@immigrant3221]

Did you change the timing chain

[@UpsideDownCanoe]

@@immigrant3221 funny you should ask that, i did that 3 weeks ago.

[@immigrant3221]

@@UpsideDownCanoe Thank you for the reply, so you did it at how many kilometers ? And how about the gearbox oil ?

[@UpsideDownCanoe]

@@immigrant3221 well I change all the fluids, filters and flushed the transmission myself once a year and I changed timing chain after around 100000km because i was taking out the engine anyway. A bit overkill but I'm planning to keep this car for many years.

@@UpsideDownCanoe Thank you so much for the responses 🙏🏽

[@TheFireflies91]

Your reviews at Carbuyer are seriously damn good ! Its a while now I keep watching them :)

[@Adzzz1995]

This is one of my of my favourite cars of all time..

[@n7eet]

I like that in 3:30 these a link in the top right corner or the Vhoxel ASTRA, as if some one who's looking to buy a 6-series is also comparing it to a freaking ASTRA!!

[@terminallyinquisitive1731]

Just bought a 2015 640D M Sport. The torque is ridiculous and I'm getting 38mpg. Really smooth, quiet and quick. It is a bit boaty through twisty roads - it doesn't have the Adaptive Suspension extra but its alot of fun to drive and eats up miles in comfort. With 20 inch wheels its a much better ride than i anticipated (non RF tyres fitted).

[@FantastyckplastycK]

wow wow wow BMW never ceases to amaze!

[@SwiftHDX]

Let's compare. Samsung spent $400m on advertising and making their products look 'smart' last year. $400m spent just to advertise their Galaxy line-up. That's $70m more than Apple spent on advertising. Absolutely ridiculous.

[@theLichKing1]

i like how he gives a good consideration to suspension.. many cars i've owned are horribly uncomfortable because of their stiff suspension

[@Birmingham_racing]

I was in one of these yesterday was well impressed with the power. I’ve been in much more powerful cars but this is plenty of power for the road

[@moreshi6017]

Best car review channel!

My dream car.

Do you like this design over the before ? Thanks !

got the 4 door grand coupe version, best car i've owned

[@heircapital6172]

I have plans to buy the gran coupe soon

[@c331hunt]

I feel like the 911 comparison is probably matt's daftest comment in any vid I've ever seen him in.

Matt was in every UK review companies

[@SahilRULEZ909]

This car is so beautiful!!! Oh my god!!! So much better than the last version!

[@Edwin-km4xk]

Still looks good 10 years later

[@jaatharsh]

aweosme video CarBuyer.. n really liked the looks n sound it makes !!

[@ClarophonistCJ]

Nowadays, you'd almost be mad to take a petrol in this type of car - diesel is that good.

[@TheDpb167]

I love CarBuyer, but they are obsessed with diesels. Not every car can be a diesel. In Ireland, all of my cousins have diesels except for one. That one owns a Bentley Conti GT Speed. Proper W12 engine. Same thing with cars like this and the E-Coupe/Cabriolet and the S class. A diesel takes away from the smooth ride intended for these cars and their buyers. For some cars, yes a diesel makes sense, but not for Grand Tourers.

[@Pashka007]

Nice comment about samsungs, Matt!! People look pretty ridiculous, when they're talking on a phone with the size of a tablet!

[@kulrom]

What's wrong with you guys? Not a bad looking car? BMW series 6? It's fantastic!!!!! Thanks for reviewing

[@iantownsend5480]

My real whole dream car, £35,000 these cost the grand coupe version start at about £45,000, so I'll have the normal coupe because its cheaper

[@TECMANPRO11]

Awesome video! Glad you reviewed a BMW again.

[@textthing]

Isn't the discussion of taste a bit out of place when you're talking about consumer products, where the choice has been made for you?

[@81giorikas]

For thrills, personal prefference and experience, I'd never take a diesel engine, even the best over a petrol one, especially BMW's. But this isn't the 90's anymore. HOWEVER. In this price range? I wouldn't care less about the 3500 of the extra suspension or the consumption (which isn't terrible on the petrol and no way you get astra levels mpg from this car with the diezel). Simply enough money aren't usually the object for a 6 series potential buyer.

[@iphuckr]

headlights look like a pair of eyes with gigantic eyebags

[@ecurules]

I still don't get the point of getting a Diesel 6 series. If you can afford to buy a $80,000 car you can afford a car that gets bad fuel economy.

[@scottiece]

Beautiful car but did you really compare it to a 911 for driving experience ?? Comparing apples to orange!

[@StefanD67]

Why go on about the phones? That was a tray that is removable and a purpose made i item snaps into it. Purpose made for whatever new phone you own. A truly fabulous car, what is there not to like, unless your not in a position to use one.

[@textthing]

No, it's mainly because they think it makes them cool.

[@gtb100dzikus]

To give the driver a better feel for the engine, an exterior recording of the M5’s motor plays through the car’s stereo

[@raulbajmatara450]

Do you think an used Bmw 640i or 640d would be a good first car?

[@jrocxzs]

Maybe the previous generation 6 series (E63) would be a good first car but definitely not this generation.

[@thuderbull]

Future Frozen Why?

[@raulbajmatara450]

I found some really good deals. I mean a 3yo, 15k miles bmw 640i for £35000

[@w-james9277]

If you can afford the insurance then go for it

[@sun2020able]

Go for new Dacia Sandero! worth than a used BMW

[@FLowRayy]

People Hate Iphone because they cant afford it , and love to make people feel bad because they have it .. Childish

[@viorelholhos]

They insist puting those phoneholders because you dont wanna scratch phone and its made for the samsung galaxy note 2 and so they are sure that your phone will fit in.

[@Gunbullet89]

Matt my friend, is 2013 that far? Looking at the way you dressed up back then and your hairstyle, if it wasn't for the BMW, I'd think the video was shot in 1995...

[@xSeGi]

They finally fixed the back. Praise the BMW!

[@HaydenHayder]

When does the next generation 6 series come out?

[@fadelhajmurad1722]

2018

[@MantasSa]

2017 actually.

[@SwiftHDX]

Totally agree. It's also the perfect size. Both Samsung and Apple have got it wrong. One's far too big, the other is far too small.

[@CraigBickerstaff]

In New Zealand Diesel is as much as 60 - 70 cents per litre cheaper then petrol and it's easier for the environmentally aware individual to make their own biofuel then a petrol car not to mention the efficiency and higher torque means better pulling power if you have a trailer, diesel is not pointless at all.

[@lukewheeler993]

I enjoy Android's 'openness', and have both an iPhone and Android devices and enjoy them both for their own reasons - but Apple destroy Google in intuitive UI design, pick-up-and-usability, and to call the OS limited is silly - it does everything that most people want to do.

[@runfentonrun]

Hey Mat, the phone holder is not too big! It requires a BMW Accessory iPhone cradle which is an exact fit, The cradle will charge the phone and connect the phone to the the vehicle's hands-free system.

[@gribbles1146]

Still a beautiful car

[@ursus911]

A Diesel is better, BUT you can`t go into the cities anymore. Stuttgart, Berlin , London , Brussels, Hamburg all forbidden 😞

[@pewpewdead6377]

I am thinking buying a petrol with 100000 miles on it... Is that crazy?

[@YTuberosity]

Is that why so many people have an iPhone?

[@hs01jowe]

Phone tray is that size because regardless of which phone you have, you need to buy a BMW adapter for it that you put into the tray...

[@XAnimeManiax]

Android : Quad core more options like water resistant change everything without jailbreaking. Apple : Dual Core Cant multi task and you can move desktop icons and make maps ....apple fanboys easy pleased

[@Winter99ize]

If this were stateside I would def buy one. That diesel engine sounds nice.

[@CraigBickerstaff]

You say that but you have to have a balance somewhere, a grand tour isn't much of a grand tour if you spend more time at the gas station then you spend doing any touring. Even in motor sport where going fast is everything fuel consumption is important because the less time you spend filling up the more time you spend on the track which is probably why Audi has such an impressive record at LeMans.

[@KenLiew]

Lol Matt you've opened a can of worms. Samsung and Apple fan boys are having a war here now

[@wolfhead74]

Exactly - the iPhone is very popular of course.....but the overall OS for phones is Android and we know Samsung are getting larger and HTC etc are larger than the iPhone as well - I have both, iPhone for work and personal Samsung and I love them both but still think the iPhone is a status symbol for some people rather than it being a wonderful phone!

[@hs01jowe]

The Diesel quality in the US is currently not good enough for most euro diesels. From what I've heard they're not far off these days.

[@MrDpcmode]

The best feature of this car is the engine. Without it, the car itself seems very normal and not as eye-catchy as a new model should be.

[@admonix2]

I’m looking at a six series and there’s one thing that’s very confusing and I’d appreciate if someone could help. I’m looking at the facelifted car. The facelifted car has 9 instead of 10 slates in grille, different headlights and wing mirror turn signals. But the one thing that’s confusing are the rear reflectors. I’ve read that they are positioned in the lower section of the rear bumper on the pre-facelift cars, and moved just under the tailights on the facelift. But the thing is that I have seen some cars that appear to be facelifted (2015+) have the reflectors positioned on the lower section of the bumper and some have it under the tailights. Can anyone please help clear the reflector thing up? Thanks!!

[@MrCommandert10]

I didn't realise that I got a face-lift and mine is under the lights

[@admonix2]

@@MrCommandert10 actually the info I read is untrue and it has nothing to do with facelift, it’s an m sport bumper

@@admonix2 mine is m sport and it's got it under the lights not on the bumper. Looking at pics it I think the convertibles have it on bumper

Yes, you are right on this one. The 911 has always been a "do it all" kind of car. Also, about the 911's door panels: I find them to be very little padded (not that I care). Is that why YOU don't like the panels?

Diesel are generally more expensive though. Not sure if the premium price tag will out weight the less fuel consumption...

Did I hear him correctly? 50 MPG? If so, that's absolutely insane! When in the HELL are we going to get cars that get that kind of fuel economy here in the States? I know that Europeans pay more for their fuel than we Americans, but to deny us cars like that pisses me off!
