Word has it that <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/bmw">BMW</a> is planning to unveil the next <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/6%20series%20coupe">6 Series coupe</a> at the upcoming <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/shanghai%20motor%20show">Shanghai Motor Show</a> in April. According the Dutch arm of <em>AutoWeek</em>, it only makes since for the big two door to take a bow this spring since the concept version debuted at the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/paris-motor-show">2010 Pairs Motor Show</a> last fall. Given that we've seen more than a few <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2011/01/17/spy-shots-2012-bmw-6-series-coupe-caught-without-camo/">spy photos</a> crop up recently, the prediction would seem spot-on.<br />
<br />
The report says that buyers can first expect to get their hands on the coupe in either 640i or 650i variants with additional models showing up later down the line. But that's not the most interesting bit of news to pop up.<br />
<br />
<em>AutoWeek</em> is also reporting that BMW is currently slaving away on a sedan version of the 6 Series. Supposedly, the automobile would make use of the same coupe body lines as its two-door brethren. Such a vehicle would allow BMW to tango with the ever-popular <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/cls">Mercedes-Benz CLS</a>, but we have to wonder if there's room in the Roundel's stable for yet another sedan.<br />
