Car Forum / BMW Cars / April 2006Birth of a Sports Car
Speed network had a really good show on last night that covered the 645ci that is currently in production from artist drawing through production. Showed a lot of the processes and tooling used to build the car. Anyone else catch it? Learned a lot of stuff about how these cars are built. Ford and Chevrolet have a lot of catching up to do if they want to survive in the modern car market and seeing as they're hurting now, I don't see it happening... > Speed network had a really good show on last night that covered the > 645ci that is currently in production from artist drawing through [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > they want to survive in the modern car market and seeing as they're > hurting now, I don't see it happening... I had to laugh. 645 a sports car? Pah-lease!

Correct. Here in the UK too. You can still get the 630 as well. --- Sam >> Speed network had a really good show on last night that covered the >> 645ci that is currently in production > >Hasn't the 645 been replaced by the 650 - or is that only in North America? > >Tom K. I saw a car commercial the other day (don't remember for what car though) where they were touting it had more interior room than a BMW 760i. Is this a new car I haven't heard of or just a neat way to get around truth in advertising? > I saw a car commercial the other day (don't remember for what car > though) where they were touting it had more interior room than a BMW > 760i.

The extended wheelbase version is the 760Li. http://www.bmwusa.com/vehicles/7/760isedan/default Tom K. The Hyundai Azera states that in their commercials. >>> Speed network had a really good show on last night that covered the >>> 645ci that is currently in production [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > 760i.

I hadn't heard of a 760 and didn't really think it was a real car... >The Hyundai Azera states that in their commercials. > [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] >> 760i.

"Artist drawing"? Really? And here was me thinking that one day the 6 simply fell out of the ugly tree... =P |
