BMW 6 series GT vs BMW 7 series
Hi All,
I am looking to buy a big sedan. Is there any big difference between 7 series and 6 series GT? Cheers, Simon J |

There's a huge amount of differences, the 7 series is a luxury sedan where as the 6 series GT is a bit more of a large but sporty car.
Depends on what your after but give them both a test drive and see what you think, always the best way. |

i’m fairly certain the 6 gt is based off of the 7 chassis so you get the room (i.e., wheelbase) in that respect but given the 6 gt’s curvy and slopey nature of the roofline, it doesn't feel as big inside (in the rear compartment, anyway).

It also doesn't have the level of adjustability in the rear seats you get on a 7 series plus I think the ride height is higher so that changes the driving dynamics a bit. Air suspension is only standard on the rear, you'd likely want to pay the extra to get it all round.
Still a great car I imagine, best to try them both out. |

I guess it's for people that like the coupe looks but want something a bit more practical because they've got kids or such. Indeed other than going for looks, if you need that kind of car a normal 7 series salloon makes more sense still I think.

7 is $10,000 more under similar specs, resell value of a GT is a little off than a sedan in the same price range. 7 is the top line of BMW luxury car, 6 is in the middle of nowhere. 7 gets a more comfortable riding experience, 6 gets a sportier look. Consider an S-class as well, its beating BMW in this segment in almost every single corner of the world, take 7 if you're also in college and don't want others looked you like a chauffeur, take S if you get child & plans to keep your car for 5 years or longer cause both will heading to their next generations at that time.
