BMW unveiled a life-cycle impulse on the 6 Series in 2015, four years after the F13 introduction on the market, and that affected both the coupe and the convertibles.

After successfully introducing the third generation of the 6 Series in 2011, the German automaker launched the expected open-top version for it in 2012.

BMW introduced a facelifted version for the second generation of the 6 Series in 2007, even though there were little things to do with this grand tourer vehicle.

The second generation of the 6 Series had received the much wanted convertible version. The original, 1977 model, didn't have that and most of the potential buyers just asked "why". But in 2004, they quit complaining.
