M6 series End of Life when?

[Blackraven]

Some websites like BMW Germany and BMW UK have removed configurators for the M6 coupe and only convertible and Gran Coupe configurators remain.....

So the question is:
Will there may be new model years for the current gen? Or is BMW preparing the next-gen? Or will BMW ditch the 6 series and go with 8 series (and the M8)?

Also, how much time is left?

F12 6er - 06/18
F06 6GC - 02/19

A March 2017 update said this: •Corrected EOP dates for F12 and F13: moved from 10/18 to 06/18.

But I saw some UK guys couldn't get individual options about 3 months ago and it was literally the last time for them to buy back then. However that is for the RHD market, some LHD markets might be different.

The 8 and M8 will replace the 6 and M6 and sadly the 7 speed DCT will be dropped with all models coming with the 8 speed auto only.

I was one of those people, wanted various individual bits but dealer ordering system would not accept the order unless these items were removed, i also see that there a few used late used cars are appearing for sale, i suspect these have been on order for many months as these were offered to me but they were very expensive.


surprising given the official word is that the M6GC has a good few months left to run from this report

Interesting:
But in any case, will there still be both a 6 series and an 8 series?

6 GT only, the new 8 will be the old 6 with a Coupe, Vert and GC body styles.
