BMW Recycling.
The BMW Group has been voted the market leader in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index for
the fifth consecutive year – making it once more the most sustainable automobile manufacturer
in the world. Sustainability is firmly anchored in our entire value chain, from the development
of fuel-saving and alternative vehicle concepts through environmentally friendly production
processes to innovative recycling methods. With BMW EfficientDynamics we launched
a development philosophy in 2000 that provides considerable benefits to our customers, the
climate and the environment today. This is reflected in the emissions tally of our European
new-vehicle fleet – over the period from 1995 to 2008, the fleet’s CO
2
emissions dropped by
almost 27 %. But our goals are even more ambitious: over the period from 2006 to 2012,
we aim to reduce the consumption of resources such as energy and water in our vehicle
manufacturing operations by 30 %.
The models illustrated in this brochure show the specifications for the German market. In
part, they include optional equipment and accessories not fitted as standard. According
to the specific requirements of other markets, alterations in models, standard and optional
equipment, as described in the text and illustrations, may occur. For precise information,
please contact your BMW partner. Subject to change in design and equipment.

weight applies to vehicles with standard equipment. Options and special equipment may increase this

The engine of the BMW M6 Coupé and the BMW M6 Convertible is designed for RON 98 fuel. Use of
RON 95 or 91 fuel reduces engine output.
4
The engine of the BMW M6 Coupé and the BMW M6 Convertible fulfils the EU4 emission standard.
Fuel consumption is determined in the ECE driving cycle made up of approximately one-third urban and
two-thirds overland driving (measured in terms of mileage covered). CO
2
emissions are measured in
addition to fuel consumption. Optional equipment (such as wider tyres) can have a significant impact on
fuel consumption.
Optional extras are available fully installed straight from the factory. For additional extras see the extensive
catalogue of accessories at your BMW partner. BMW Individual will be happy to help should you wish your
dream BMW to include features not listed here. To find a package that perfectly suits what you have in
mind, simply contact your BMW partner for assistance.
