Here’s the first promo video of the new 2013 BMW M6 featuring both the coupe and the convertible.

As good as the new M6 looks in the pictures, it’s even better in motion. The video also hints at the car’s driving dynamics by showing it hanging its tail out in the corners, further proof that it’s not just a heavy grand tourer, but a proper sports car that dishes out lumps of fun if you play with it.

It’s no wonder why the car is so good to drive. After all, it’s got a weapons-grade 4.4 liter V8 biturbo developing 560hp, and it’s made by the M division. These guys are like the SAS of BMW engineers, the most highly skilled bunch with special abilities. And they’ve worked their magic with the new chassis. That active trick M differential is an example of their excellence.
