BMW 650 Coupe
A four-passenger luxury touring car, the BMW 650 coupe is based on the same platform the brand uses for their popular 5-series sedan. Ideal for enthusiasts searching for an attractive ride with more character than a typical luxury car rental, the 650 coupe combines not only speed and style but convenience and comfort as well.
Front and rear suspensions on the car are calibrated, which produces a lower ride height and faster speed. To keep the car as light weight as possible, BMW used aluminum on the body as well as a composite deck lid and thermoplastic front fenders that look good and weight next to nothing. Antilock disc brakes, stability control, 18-inch wheels, seat-mounted airbags, front knee airbags and adaptive xenon headlights all come standard on the exotic car rental, which also features a subscription to BMW’s assist emergency telematics system.
Two optional packages are available for drivers who prefer to outfit their BMW car rental with more extravagant amenities. The Cold Weather package feature heated seats and a heated steering wheel to protect against the chills of winter while the Sport package incorporates 19-inch wheels, an enhanced exterior trim and stylish sport seats.
The interior comes standard with extravagant luxuries like 12-way power front seats with driver memory, dual-zone automatic climate control, leather upholstery, Bluetooth, an eight-speaker surround sound audio system and iPod integration. Possible upgrades include active steering, adaptive cruise control and keyless ignition.
Underneath the hood is a 4.8-liter V8 engine that produces 360 horsepower and 360 pound-feet of torque. The rear-wheel drive coupe comes with a standard six-speed manual transmission but drivers can choose the new six-speed automatic transmission that just became available. Featuring downshift rev-matching, the automatic transmission is controlled by steering wheel mounted paddle shifters and offers a surprisingly smooth ride.
