Two different kinds of vehicles so it all depends on what you *want*

If you're looking to go into the 6 series, then I suggest that you skip the 650i and go straight to the M6

M6 > 650i (even with Dinan Stage 2 upgrades)

reliability aside, the BMW 6 is a BEAUTIFUL car. Will definitely get you more girls than the RCF. Have a feeling the RCF will attract other car guys more than girls

So the BMW 6 is for impressing girls while the RC-F is to get respect of car enthusiasts?

So looks like I am going with the 650I, wasnt too dissapointed with the RCF news since the 650I is even heavier. But I found a like new 650I with 3,800miles and bang and olufsen system, m sport, executive, etc for $68K. Put the deposit down and going to go look at it on friday.

Looks like you’re getting a great deal on a repossessed car....

When new, it was valued @ $103,295 USD

P.S. - I could never put reliability aside

The 2014 650i goes for $75,000 new, and in the $80ks with options.

Buyer, Check out the electronics BEFORE you storm off with this ride.

This car should not be compared to the RCF but to the Mercedes CLS--like for like rides.

Yes, both cars are not in the same class but I was looking more at same price range (70k). As for the msrp the 640 starts at $75k the 650 starts at $87k and options get expensive quickly. I will make sure I check all electronics carefully, thanks
