Need for Speed: Undercover
Edit
The BMW M6 appears as a Tier 2 car in Need for Speed: Undercover and is unlocked upon the player reaching Wheelman level 9,5.
The M6 has mediocre acceleration and a low top speed of 217 mph (350 km/h) in contrast to other Tier 2 cars. It possesses a responsive and stable steering as compensation.
Chase Linh's BMW M6 is also featured in the Boss Car Bundle. It is a more powerful variant of the one the player receives from Carmen before the 'Betrayed' Job and comes fitted with nitrous.
Need for Speed: World
Edit
The M6 Coupé was added to the car dealer in Need for Speed: World as a Tier 2 vehicle on April 20th, 2012. Since August 22nd, 2012, it has been featured as an 'A' Class car. A 'B' Class in-game cash variant was added on October 16th, 2012. It was retired on January 23rd, 2013 and re-released on March 19th, 2013.

The M6 has short gear ratios, resulting in quick acceleration times. However, once the player reaches the final gear, which has the largest ratio out other gears, its power shows a notable decrease. Other similarly ranging cars might be able to reach top speed sooner than the M6.
It also has a more powerful nitrous boost than the BMW M3 Sport Evolution and turns very precisely in corners without losing any traction. It weighs as much as most BMW cars in the game. Top speed is 189 mph (304 km/h) and 210 mph (338 km/h) with nitrous.
The M6 is a good alternative to the M3 Sport Evolution due to its well rounded performance and being available for in-game cash.
Shift 2: Unleashed
Edit
The BMW M6 is featured in Shift 2: Unleashed as a Modern Road vehicle with an 890 performance index and 2,91 handling rating.
The M6 with standard performance possesses an adequate acceleration and grippy ride. Its rear can break out when the car is moved to quickly. Players can apply a Works upgrade to the M6 to improve performance substantially.
Convertible
Edit
The BMW M6 Convertible is the most powerful car of the E64 6 Series range. It was manufactured at the same time as the Coupe.
Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit (2010)
Edit
The M6 Convertible is featured in Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit (2010) as a Super class Racer vehicle. It can be played by racers only and is unlocked upon the player earning 593,000 bounty in the Racer career.
It performs noticeably worse in races than other cars within its range. The M6 Convertible suffers from a heavy weight that can cause severe understeer through corners, although this trait is useful for sustaining damage in Hot Pursuit.

The two tone paint job of the Monochrome consists of BMW vinyls and is inspired by the BMW Concept 1 Series tii[1]. Neon, a "RNFHR3R" licence plate, BBS wheels and a body kit are included as standard aftermarket parts.
