Hamann has introduced new updates to the M sport package for the BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe, a “facelift” of the first part tuning part by Hamann which was created at the first appearance of BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe.

Hamann has added a new design for the M Sport Package of BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe, a special rear diffuser for quad exhaust, a new front bumper which is ground lowered and many other modifications.

Hamann BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe is one of the most beautiful cars currently tuned as you can see the pictures say it all.

You can configure your BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe at the Hamann Garage after your desires, you can make changes inside, except for modifications to the engine at this time.

This is how and where the tuning companies and enthusiasts come into play and they begin to open yet more ideas of enchantment.

Velos Designwerks have a special treat for us in the form of a special tuning package that really brings the 650i Gran Coupe closer to the streets.

Let’s face it, even though it’s an expensive BMW sedan, it’s had more to do with the Fast and Furious franchise than it has with the Wall Street movies.

Now that a tuning company finally got round to modifying it, the street presence is much more up to spec. It’s not like the young go getting guy was fired.

It’s like he quit his job and he found his college hoodie to jog around in as he figures things out. There’s a lot of expectation and some pressure, but he’s just the kind of guy who can wing it.

Oh yeah, we were talking about a BMW. It got a new bonnet design, a set of lowering springs, lightweight SOLO X forged wheels and Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires.

Add a very cool looking silver paint and some extra performance courtesy of an ECU remap and you’ve got yourself quite the treat.

All these changes have given our “boy” a bit of a rakish look and perhaps a more threatening presence than any PR people would encourage. Which makes it even more interesting.

The model used for this particular launch is a 640i. As usual with this company, the performance aspect is not the most important in the mix.

What is important is that on this occasion, aside from introducing a variety of photos with the alloys they’re preparing for the 640i, there’s also a video.

There’s a nice city backdrop, with varying weather, for the still shots and then there’s a bit of highway driving footage mixed in as well.

A set of 22 inch rollers can usually be considered as a total inconvenience when moving but the ones in this scene are portrayed as if they’re almost usable.

Stunning, it’s probably the simplest way to describe their VVS-CV3 Matte Black machined 22 inch alloys. I’m fairly confident the car’s stance also helps.

Not only does the 6 Series Gran Coupe have a well thought out presence on the road, in this case a custom H&R suspension kit was employed to make the best of the situation visible.

I’m also not sure about the way the tinted windows on this car. Perhaps there’s some foil action or maybe there’s some effects work.

After all, I know the BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe doesn’t have the biggest greenhouse around but it seems like it gets a little too dark for normal lighting conditions.

This was actually tipped off by the headlamps which don’t seem to light up properly.

The brand new, still incredibly rare product can be made even harder to lose in the car park by fitting a brand new body kit from Hamann Motorsport.

Better aerodynamics is what a company with motorsport roots with normally try to sell you when it comes to stuff like this. In fairness, it’s probably true in some cases.

In this particular case I’d say it’s the need to showoff that comes on top of the positive dynamic effects. Even if the cooling is better there’s no excuse here.

Let’s get over ourselves, most tweaked BMWs hardly see a proper hot footed run, let alone some actual track action for around an hour or so.

If the engine is still standard (as this package doesn’t include performance mods for it) the BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe receives sufficient air to cool itself in most conditions.

That makes all those extra vents and scoops an exercise in overkill. The carbon fiber bonnet is perhaps the tackiest example of tuning we’ve seen from Hamann so far.

The company’s Anniversary Evo Hyper Black 21 inch alloy wheels go on. They look great but as they’re the same units used on the F12 BMW 6 Series, seem to lack some effort.

A BMW interior is not something to snuff at yet the German tuner offers all sorts of upmarket materials such as Alcantara, high quality leather and wood.

Also, the floor mats are replaced and the pedals are now aluminium.

They really care about presentation and they want to showoff not only what they’re making, but what car their products are actually going on.

We’ve seen them unveil quite a few of their products alongside the lovely BMW models we’re fans of and they’ve all struck a cord.

It may be because this time, the car used is one of the best looking models in BMW’s history and certainly the best four door they currently make.

What I’m talking about is the BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe. It’s a model that swaps out the standard rollers for brand new 22 inch CV3 concave rims.

Vossen haven’t exactly reinvented the wheel here but they did addapt them to the 6 Series Gran Coupe. Precise dimensions of 22×9 for the front and 22×10.5 inches for the rear speak bundles.

The five spoke design looks as sporty as it ever did and the black trimming around it does nothing but accentuate the same appearance.

The inner freak show inside me does worry. It’s mostly because in the same way that you can’t see the black trim, you can’t really see the tires.

I’m assured they’re there and the idea of floating wheels doesn’t quite stack up, but what’s there doesn’t appear to be tires.

It all just seems like plastic tires you can get on toy cars. You know the kind, the sort which really crashes about even on a grain of dust.

As their name suggests, these fellas don’t really get too bothered about fitting ostrich skin on the upholstery or tinted windows.

In keeping with the stereotype we all have build up around the Germans, Manhart Racing stuck to the important serious bits of the tuning process.

Their take on the four wheel drive version of the V8 powered BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe gets engine upgrades, chassis tweaks and braking improvements first of all.

Some minor tweaks to the bumpers, the skirts and the exhaust tips tell us just how serious they are. They didn’t even change anything about the looks that wasn’t very low down on the car anyway.

Under the bonnet, its 4.4 liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine goes from 450 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque to a much beefier 543 / 538.

The change is achieved by punching up the boost levels and so the exhaust system itself needed a lot more work in order to keep everything top notch.

Now that acceleration and speed has been tweaked, it only felt natural for the tuner to give the braking system a serious upgrade.

This is why the used the F10 BMW M5 brake package, albeit with a few modifications and then fitted the M Division’s 20 inch wheels around them.

Finally, the chassis receives a bit of sharpening up with an adaptation package from MHR. All that acceleration and braking will bring about some more stress to the entire thing so it had to be dealt with somehow.

A somewhat sedate F30 3 Series Sedan is in the works, a considerably sharper F10 BMW M5 is being worked alongside it and now one of the newest models is under the knife.

It’s all sounding very exciting to see and Studie AG seem to be working tirelessly around the clock to come up with new cars/packages for them and the likes.

Their PR folk certainly know their way around the business and they will easily build up the hype on these new cars but they may be doing it a little early on.

This time there’s basically nothing to talk about in terms of body, aero tweaks or even paint schemes. This is a typical Mineral White paint finish we’re talking about.

The biggish four door coupe is now sitting on a KW V3 coilover suspension setup and can be teamed to a varying combinations of alloy wheels.

These can range between 20 and 21 inch alloys that are manufactured by Advan or AC Schnitzer and it’s very, very difficult to argue against either of which.

All I wish is that the guys over at Studie AG would get right on top of the models they’re making and actually start launching slightly more intricate tweaks.

In the meantime, we’ll just drool a little over the images they’ve currently provided.

The German car maker seems to never be pleased with what auto makers are building, no matter what name they have or where in the market they fit in.

At this point, while they didn’t find any weak spots in the armor around the BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe’s exterior, they did make a few tweaks.

They may call it a styling kit to get away with more changes but as they only fit a front spoiler, deck the upper and lower front grilles in chrome and then fit an apron to the rear bumper, the differences aren’t too dramatic.

The new 19, 20 and 21 inch alloy wheels however seem like a more substantial change and we’re guessing here that the ride quality may be compromised a bit by this decision.

Some of these kits may actually be considerably needed to fit around the newly fitted performance braking system with 8 piston fixed calipers and enormous disks.

A sports suspension and a new lowering kit also goes on to the BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe alongside the new sports exhaust system with chrome-trimmed tailpipes.

Finally, the BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe from AC Schnitzer, gets some performance updates to the engines in the 640i and 640d powerplants, bringing them both to 360 horsepower.

Nothing is spoken of the higher performing models but you can rest assured AC Schnitzer will find some way to pump extra juice out of the V8 powered counterparts.
