507 bhp naturally-aspirated V10 monster
The Appeal
The E63 M6 is the stuff of legend. Its S85 V10, a 5.0-litre naturally aspirated engine producing around 507 bhp and revving to 8,250 rpm, was developed alongside BMW's Formula 1 program and remains the only V10 ever fitted to a production BMW. Paired with the seven-speed SMG III gearbox and rear-wheel drive, it delivers a driving experience that blurs the line between luxury grand tourer and supercar.
This example was supplied new in the UK and first registered in December 2005. It was BMW dealer-serviced for the first seven years before moving to a BMW specialist, with stamped service book entries continuing to October 2020. A folder of invoices accompanies the car.
Finished in deep blue metallic with the carbon fibre roof panel, the exterior sits on 19-inch M twin-spoke alloy wheels with cross-drilled brake discs. Inside, light grey leather sports seats contrast with the black dashboard in a two-tone cabin that includes iDrive, automatic climate control and the M-specific EDC, DSC and power controls, along with M-coloured stitching on the handbrake gaiter.
There are condition points to note, including lacquer peel on the alloy wheels, budget-brand tyres, some surface corrosion on exhaust pipes and underbody fixings, and light wear in the cabin. Overall, this is a presentable M6 with a good history file.image.png5.53 MB

This sale is subject to the Car & Classic Terms and Conditions. By bidding and/or making an offer, you also agree to the following:
✓ The seller is registered as a private seller, which means consumer rights stemming from EU consumer protection law do not come into effect. However, you are still covered by Car & Classic's own Terms and Conditions..
✓ We request that a non-refundable fee be paid if you are the lucky winning bidder at auction or if your offer is accepted. Please refer to our helpful FAQs and T&Cs for specific rates.
✓ This vehicle is "Sold As Seen", on an "As Is Where Is" basis and without warranty. Photos and descriptions are solely for guidance purposes, and it's customary to carry out a full inspection of the vehicle prior to purchase for your own peace of mind.
✓ VAT is included in the buyer's fee. VAT may or may not be included in the final bid or offer price, as specified in the listing.
✓ We want a smooth transaction just as much as you do, and as such we run all UK-registered cars and motorbikes for sale on Car & Classic through an online HPI check to verify that they show no insurance database markers for damage or theft, and have no finance owing, allowing you to bid with confidence.
✓ We also check whether vehicles are recorded as being written off as part of an insurance total loss claim at the time an advert is placed on Car & Classic, and we helpfully provide write-off category labels (Cat C/D/S/N) for your assistance. However, the presence or absence of a label does not guarantee the vehicle's status, and it is always worthwhile carrying out your own full vehicle history check before making an offer on a vehicle.
✓ Buyers are responsible for vehicle collection
or delivery. Importing vehicles may result in additional customs duties and import taxes, so it's worth checking beforehand. It is the bidder's responsibility to confirm import eligibility prior to purchase.
✓ Unless stated otherwise, you must assume that any cherished, personalised, or heritage vehicle registration is not included in the sale of a vehicle.
