  The great hype - 2005 BMW 6-Series
  By Dave Heywood - October 7 - 9:06 am

  Just bought this car this past august. Ive seriously have driven the car no more than two weeks. This car is already a nightmare. Gasket leaks and misfiring issues. Should have stuck with Mercedes. BMW dealer cant even pin point the issue. Very poor customer service. BMW of Peabody ma. Stinks. Im ready to throw in the towel at this point.

  Old Age Friend - 2005 BMW 6-Series
  By jkiramis - July 24 - 2:45 am

  Owned a 308, a 365, two Aston Martins, a slab sided Cobra, more MBZs than I can forget and I have to say this is the finest all around automobile I have ever owned. The car is dependable, forgiving and a joy to drive hard and fast. Spent 14k at 90,000 to replace items that had not yet failed but what does it matter since my old chum has never let me down. Am now at 203,000 miles and all is still well.

  Love the car - Hate the headaches - 2005 BMW 6-Series
  By Robert Freeman - July 23 - 7:54 am

  Reliability is an issue - right now I need to take the car to the shop to get the engine gaskets replaced, the intermittent PDC failure analyzed, the trunk lock sensor fixed so that I can open it with the remote, the brake fluid flushed, the interior filter replaced, brake pads replaced, etc.

  BMW 645 Convertible - 2005 BMW 6-Series
  By paul Bailey - April 26 - 8:40 am

  Without a doubt the best car I ever owned. I have had Mercedes, BMW 530i, Ferrari 355 (2 years old) several Porsche 911s and this is just such a great car. Economical, fast, brilliant handling, stylish, practical, great sound system, reliable. I cannot fault the car and abolutely love it.

  A Piece of Art but also A Piece of Junk - 2005 BMW 6-Series
  By bobcat21 - January 24 - 3:53 pm

  My wife and I feel in love with our 05 BMW 645i conv. when we first picked it up. We purchased it Jan. 2011 used with only 33,000 miles on it. It had some years on it but we figured it would get several years of only normal maintenance type services and not need to worry about major mechanical or electric problem because of its low mileage and series. After all this is one of BMWs flagship cars. While the car gets looks of admiration at stop lights the feeling of this wears out quickly when you count how many dollars and time it has spent in a BMW repair shop. The BMW 645i is like buying a boat - the 2 happiest days of ownership are the day you buy it and the day you get rid of it.

  Unreliable starts - 2005 BMW 6-Series
  By samanthaat - June 30 - 12:58 pm

  At first I loved this car. Im a low mileage driver and BMW tells me the car is meant to be driven a lot. If you dont drive it a lot this car is a life of hell. The BMW dealer told me if I dont drive it at least one day a week for an hour the battery will die. He said there is too much draining the battery. Its not a week though. Seven starts drains the battery. I keep it on a trickle charge, but that apparently doesnt keep it from draining. After the battery drains a couple dozen times, its time for a new battery which today cost over $500. Thats not acceptable but what is really unacceptable is having an $80,000 car that leaves me stranded and calling AAA once a week.

  I Love this Car! - 2005 BMW 6-Series
  By John - March 11 - 7:39 pm

  The finest car I have ever owned. I have had other BMWs, Mercedes, Volvos, 400 HP muscle cars and nothing compares to this car. It is in a class of its own when it comes to BMWs.

  There are better options - 2005 BMW 6-Series
  By Santiago - December 13 - 3:44 pm

  I think you can have a much better car for the same money. My car has been giving me a lot of headache with the operation of the roof it stops working without previous notice and not even the BMW guys know why is that. She still is covered by the warranty but my concern is when its over Ill be the one paying every time this happens again. Other than that, she runs ok but the engine isnt that amazing considering its a V8 (should have much more grunts and ponies). Anyway, I wouldnt buy it again. Next time, Ill try Mercedes, Porsche or Audi.

  What a BEAST Machine - 2005 BMW 6-Series
  By CJ_in_FL - February 8 - 9:33 pm

  Drove 3-series all my life until I got this beast. 6 speed is out of this world. Acceleration, handling and cornering couldnt be finer. I swapped out the run flats immediately even though there was only 19,000 on car. What a difference without that extra weight. Less expensive too. First gear buries the tach a little too fast but you get use to the quick shift to second. I took it to the limit 160+ once and it was still quiet in the rag top. The iDrive is simple once you read the manual. Quality and variations of the LOGIC7 is theater- like. Im 67" and the cockpit is very accommodating. I just love my BEAST for power and style.
