BMW - 650i Convertible - 2012

BMW 650i Convertible F12 – 2012 – 4.4 V8 TwinPower Turbo The BMW 6 Series has always held a special place in BMW’s history. While the 5 Series was primarily developed as a sporty business car and the 7 Series emphasized maximum luxury, the 6 Series combined both worlds in the form of an elegant Gran Turismo. The first 6 Series, the E24, appeared in 1976 and grew into one of the most recognizable BMW models of its generation. After a long hiatus, the name returned in 2003 with the E63/E64. This example dates from 2012 and is unusually stylishly composed in Orion Silver Metallic with Ivory White Nappa leather. The combination is complemented by Piano Finish Black interior trim, Ceramic Controls and an extensive list of factory luxury options. When new, the car had an original retail price of $100,495. For the Dutch market, this configuration represented a new price of around €135,000 at the time. The history is also extensively documented. The included CLEAN CARFAX lists 30 maintenance records, only three private owners, no reported accidents or damage, and a logical mileage progression. The car was also sold in 2013 as BMW Certified Pre-Owned. BODYWORK/PAINT: The body is finished in the elegant factory color Orion Silver Metallic. Depending on the light, this metallic paint shows a subtle silver, champagne to light-gold hue that fits the character of the 650i Convertible particularly well. The paintwork presents itself well and has a nice shine. The body panels align neatly. The F12 combines a long, low hood with wide rear wheel arches and a relatively low waistline. With the top up, the body remains particularly sleek because BMW chose a fully retractable soft-top. The electrically operated soft top folds away neatly. A distinctive detail of the F12 is the separate, almost vertical rear glass window behind the rear seats. This construction contributes to the characteristic silhouette and can also serve as a wind-deflector when driving with the top down. The body makes extensive use of lightweight materials. The bonnet and doors are aluminum, while the front side panels and tailgate use other lightweight composite materials. The presence of chrome window surrounds, kidney grilles, trim pieces and body accents present themselves well. The headlamps, taillights and glazing also look neat. The car features the attractive 20-inch alloy wheels, part of option ZF2. TECHNICAL: Under the hood lies the 4,395 cc TwinPower Turbo V8, equipped with direct gasoline injection, Double-VANOS variable valve timing and twin turbochargers. The engine delivers 400 hp and around 600 Nm of torque. It is the matching-numbers engine that belongs to the car. The V8 is paired with the 8-speed Sport Automatic Transmission, which can be operated fully automatically or via the manual shift mode. Power is sent to the rear wheels. The 650i features Dynamic Damping Control, electronically adjusting the damper characteristics. Via Driving Experience Control on the center console, the driver can also select different driving programs, including Comfort and Sport. The suspension consists of double-wishbone front suspension and multi-link rear suspension, combined with aluminum front and rear subframes, stabilizer bars and gas-filled shock absorbers. The car features large ventilated disc brakes with ABS, Dynamic Brake Control and an electric parking brake with Auto Hold. The maintenance history shows that technically important components have received demonstrable attention over the life of the car. For example, brake fluid has been replaced several times, oil and filters periodically replaced, and components such as spark plugs, coils, drive belts, tensioners, and the oil pan gasket have been replaced. At 40,947 miles the spark plugs and coils were replaced and oil and filter changed. At 42,898 miles the drive belts and tensioners were renewed. At 45,376 miles again oil and filter were changed and the oil pan gasket renewed. Just before export, the BMW was inspected again. On 7 July 2025 at 78,541 miles a pre-delivery inspection was performed and the brakes checked. This was only 78 miles before the current odometer reading of 78,619 miles. INTERIOR: The interior forms a particularly beautiful contrast with the body and is finished in Ivory White Nappa leather. The light leather upholstery runs through the seats, rear seats and large portions of the door panels. The upper part of the dashboard and center console is black. The combination is further accented by Piano Finish Black interior trim and the optional Ceramic Controls. The photos show a well-kept interior. The light leather shows some localized wear on the front seats, consistent with age and mileage. The front seats are 20-way electrically adjustable Multi-Contour Seats with adjustable upper back, lumbar support, lateral supports and upper thigh support. Both driver and passenger have memory functions. This example is equipped with the Luxury Seating Package, further expanding the already extensive seating equipment. In the photos, both heating and ventilation for the seats are recognizable in the climate control panel. The dashboard is dominated by the BMW iDrive system with a 10.3-inch high-definition display, navigation, trip computer, voice control, Real Time Traffic and programmable shortcut keys. Premium Sound equipment provides the extensive audio installation. The car also features automatic climate control, power-adjustable and foldable exterior mirrors, auto-dimming interior and exterior mirrors, parking sensors, ambient lighting, power windows and a built-in garage door opener. The black high-gloss center console with Ceramic Controls, iDrive controller and electronic selector presents itself beautifully and forms a stylish contrast with the Ivory White interior.

In addition, an extensive set of original BMW onboard documentation is present, including the Owner's Manual, Service and Warranty Information, BMW Safety Tips, Tire Warranty, Quick Reference Guide and additional instruction manuals.
