When BMW unveiled the mid-life cycle impulse for the M6 in 2014, it did more than just adding a few styling cues to the car; it introduced a special, more powerful version as well.

The German carmaker introduced the first 6-Series in 1976 and lasted until 1989 when it was withdrawn from the market without a clear successor, until 2003 when BMW unveiled the second generation. This time, it continued the saga in 2011 with the third generation and refreshed it in 2014. But it didn't come alone. It brought the updated M6 and the new Gran Coupe with it.

While the convertible and the Gran Coupe were additional versions, the coupe remained the true performer of the family. Even though it was more of a gran-tourer, it was still a performance car. The refreshed version received new LED headlights as standard, along with a slightly reshaped front bumper. From its sides, the carmaker introduced a new set of light-alloy wheels with a seven-spoke design.

Inside, the M6 featured a new steering wheel with paddle shifters for the dual-clutch gearbox. Also, on the center console, the carmaker placed the specific M gear-selector. As an additional reminder, the instrument panel sported the M-badge on the black dial background. The Merino leather-clad interior and the sport bucket seats matched the car's exclusive look.

Under the hood, BMW offered a Competition Package for the M6, which raised the power by 40 hp. As an option, the carmaker removed the speed limiter for this version, boosting the top speed up to 189 mph (304 kph). Unlike its regular M-sibling, the Competition Package version featured an active M Differential for better traction.
