I think that 8-series is the new 6 and I am not quite sure what BMW are doing with their naming?!
perhaps you have not been keeping up with BMW... as opposed to the other way around.

BMW has killed the 6 series coupe and gran coupe.

the 6 series currently is a 5 door hatchback... er " GT"

the 6er as you knew it has been moved up market in terms of " styling", and pricing and is now the 8er

BMW has recalled the 850 moniker from the original 8 series and now also brought out an actual M8, which they did not do back in the 1990s.

BMW has 8 series grand coupes (aka sedans) on the horizon as well.

The 8 series also has 4 wheel steering, (not just active sway bars) which is a feature that was never in the 6er.

With that.. you should be up to date...
