2011 BMW 6 Series Convertible: First photo

First photo of the 2011 BMW 6 Series Convertible

We got the reveal of the BMW 6-Series Concept at the Paris Motor Show last week (well, the car BMW are calling the 6-Series Concept. If you believe that) and as far as we can work out, BMW has a very small window to make the 6-Series ‘Concept’ in to a production car. Our sources tell us it’s due to go in to production in March 2011 – that’s just five months away.

What we now have – courtesy of Auto Bild – is the first photo of the 2011 BMW 6 Series Convertible which is due to be revealed at the Detroit Motor Show in January 2011. Looking exactly as you would expect – the 6-Series Concept without a roof – this does seem to be an early official shot rather than a render or Photoshop job.

The 6-Series range will kick off with the usual six and eight pot offerings, although we expect there to be an M6 by 2012 with a new V8 bi-turbo sporting something around 575bhp.

More when we get it.
