Full Japanese service history from new with BMW and marque specialists (now in photo gallery)
Recent major engine-out service with Darren Wood BMW in readiness for sale
All original paint, original wheels never refurbished
Brand new CarboProject carbon fibre plenum recently fitted available separately
Equipped with Android Auto / Apple CarPlay plus factory Logic7 audio
The Appeal
Launched just behind the E60 M5 and sharing its 5.0-litre naturally-aspirated V10 engine, the E63 M6 revved to 8,250 rpm, sent 500 horsepower to its rear wheels and 0-62 mph was dispatched in a mere 4.6 seconds. Not only was the new M6 one of the fastest cars money could buy, it was also one of the most luxurious and well-appointed.
If you missed out the first time around, or now wish you’d never said goodbye to your E63 M6, here we have an immaculate example that’s been imported from Japan. Highly specified, impeccably presented and beautifully maintained, this M6 looks to be as good as they come.
It reportedly benefitted from full service history prior to import, and the vendor has recently entrusted the car to Darren Wood BMW for a major engine-out service in readiness for sale. The advisory-free MOT runs until 27th February 2025, so this BMW is ready to go.

About Max Bids
The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.
Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.
Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.
Auto-bidding increments
If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.

£100.00

Automatically outbid immediately
When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.
You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.
Matching max bids
When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.
Pre-authorisation
We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.
What are pre-bids?
A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.
Problem with your bid
Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
