- District 6: Daniel Brown, Charles "Pete" Drew
The primary is Sept. 24, 2013.
$1,000 per vote
This election is going to cost a fortune per vote, especially with the costs of excessive early voting added in. Hope the election commission curtails the early voting (if it can). -- s.
The cost of early voting
(in reply to sclark426)
The cost of early voting should not be considered solely in the context of a single, local election. When you do that, it sounds like a reasonable idea to cut way back on the number of locations and the number of days when early voting is available.
We should remember, however, the shenanigans that went on during the last Presidential election, with regard to early voting. There were concerted efforts, particularly in states under Republican control, to cut back on the locations, days and hours available for early voting. In those cases, it was transparently not about the "expense" of the thing. Rather, it was about reducing opportunities for typically Democratic-voting constituencies to get to the polls. Fortunately, in many cases the attempts were thwarted by the courts, and in others, voters got the picture and made it a point to hold their place in line for hours, just to make sure they could cast their vote. They shouldn't have to do that, however.
So yes, early voting in this one City Council election will probably be quite expensive, when considered against the number of voters who come to the polls. Fiddling around with it for that reason, however, will create precedent for fiddling around with it again during more vigorously contested races, when doing so can be used to strategically discourage voter turnout. I would rather pay a high price in tax dollars for this small election than suffer the high cost of voter disenfranchisement later.
It should also be noted that
(in reply to Somebody)
It should also be noted that Knox Co. was in line for a pilot project (and I believe there was funding) to implement "convenience voting," in which the entire election right up to and including election day is run the same as early voting.
Instead, we are on the path to "inconvenience voting."
Early voting
Sandra is right. Early voting has just made campaigns more expensive, which favors the incumbent.
I think the early voting period is defined by the state, but the cost of the early voting....how many locations are open, for example...is probably defined locally.
And I could totally be wrong about it.

Version Numbering
The OpenRaster specification should be versioned, and historical versions should be kept available on this wiki so that developers can refer back to them. /Specifications/OpenRaster/<version>
would probably be a good place to publish each version when it's finished.
Version number interpretation
Version numbers have the form <major>.<minor>
where both .
"-separated part as a positive integer, and compare corresponding parts numerically. If more parts are found in one version number than the other, the missing parts are to be treated as zero.
The version number of this initial draft specification is 0.0
. Drafts which succeed released versions of the specification may be given version numbers too; these version numbers will precede the version numbers being drafted.
Layers Stack definition changes
In order to determine which version of the specification a particular OpenRaster file was created for, applications writing OpenRaster files must store a version code in the root <image/>
element of the layers stack definition.

Compliant Small Company Opportunities for Muslim
Some banks and banking institutions are starting to provide Shari'ah compliant financing. Many of these transactions, however, are centered on property, particularly to exchange home mortgages. If you're not capable of finding a appropriate Shari'ah compliant loan, you may still search for an "equity" investment. An "equity" investment happens when the investor turns into a part who owns the company. The most typical type of this really is buying a share from the entire business, becoming investors or partners in the industry. A trader can take a desire for only part of a business's procedures. For instance, if your clothing company desired to manufacture a brand new line, but was without the main city essential to spend the money for upfront costs, an investment might be restricted to that new line. It can be the investor and also the business proprietor to determine how the profits might be split so when the cash compensated back. The contracts may also contain provisions restricting the traders privileges to simply that new line and/or permitting you to definitely purchase them out for a set fee.
You will find a variety of causes of investment, and lots of professionals that will help you locate them. The greater common traders in smaller businesses, however, would be the families and buddies from the proprietors. Even when buddies and family don't have the cash to take a position themselves, maybe they might expose you to somebody that is financially able and pass on their rely upon you.
If buddies and family aren't a possible option, many companies proprietors search for investment capital or angel traders. These two kinds of traders are usually searching for new or initial phase companies. Investment capital firms, however, are usually highly organized and turn to make opportunities with a minimum of into the millions dollars. Companies that don't need much money can change towards angel traders, people or more compact groups that typically make more compact opportunities. Many metropolitan areas and regions have organizations and regular conferences introducing angel traders to business, should you attend a conference you will probably find the main city your company needs.
Obviously specialist is frequently needed, and bankers, an accounting firm, and lawyers ought to be consulted based on your individual needs. This information is for educational reasons only, if you want legal counsel you have to talk to a lawyer qualified inside your jurisdiction.

SOURCE C.D. Howe Institute
TORONTO, Nov. 28, 2013 /CNW/ - The C.D. Howe Institute's Monetary Policy Council (MPC) today recommended that the Bank of Canada keep its target for the overnight rate, the very short-term interest rate the Bank targets for monetary policy purposes, at 1.00 percent at its next announcement on December 4, 2013. The Council further called for the Bank to hold the target at 1.00 through to December 2014.
The MPC is a panel sponsored by the C.D. Howe Institute to provide an independent assessment of the monetary stance appropriate for the Bank of Canada as it aims for its 2 percent inflation target. William Robson, the Institute's President and Chief Executive Officer, chaired the Council's 82nd meeting.
MPC members make recommendations for the Bank of Canada's upcoming interest-rate announcement, the subsequent announcement, and the announcements six months and one year ahead. The Council's formal recommendations for each announcement are the median votes of the members.

The purpose of this question is to examine if Abel's hermeneutic principles can be reversed out of the text. The presupposition is that Abel had access to the information contained in Genesis 1-3. This is an exercise in hermeneutics and I would hope we don't get into debating about Cain and Abel being literal sons of fictional parents.
This is related to Jack's question on hermeneutical approaches.
A question concerning why Abel raised sheep was answered but the issue of the sacrifice was not included.

Hi everyone,
With the encouragement from Ellison in Rants and Raves thread, I'm creating this thread to share your drone/copter information. I believe, this would help immensely for newbies like me during the initial build. For example, the Chris's blog on cheap Hobby King quad configuration is really a good resource.
I don't want to burden anyone who is willing to share their info. Hence all fields are optional. Atleast the first 5 fields are ideal. Please find the list of fields to copy/paste at the end, so you can start filling :-).
Here goes information about my quad.
frame: Quadcopter (3DRobotics)
controller/autopilot: APM1
esc: 20A (3DRobotics)
motors: 850Kv (3DRobotics)
propellers: 10x47, APC (3DRobotics)
motor to motor distance: -- inches
battery: 4S 3300mAh (Turnigy nano-tech)
total weight: -- lbs
flying time: 15 minutes (average)
radio: Turnigy 9X
video/osd: none
other: Sonar, Xbee, GPS/Mag, Attopilot current sensor
Turnigy 9X: Mode1 -> Mode2 change, Li-ion battery hack
motor to motor distance: -- inches
total weight: -- lbs
flying time:
Misc (hacks/mods):
I'm new to this forum and this seems to be the ideal place to start. Just finished my quad (first build) and have had it up and flying. Very stable from the get go and I think this has a lot to do with spending adequate time and attention to detail during the build process.
My specs:
Frame: Own creation
Controller/autopilot: APM1
Motors: E-flite 480's 910kv
Esc: E-flite Pro 40amp
Propellers: 12x4.7
Battery: 3s 3300mah
Flying time: approx. 10 mins
Radio: JR xg7 2.4ghz
Video/OSD: None
Can anyone tell me how the aluminium protective dome might affect the 2.4ghz signal? I haven't flown it out far enough yet since I'm still learning to fly it properly.
My name is James and I am new to UAV's. I had a previous post, but since I made many changes to my drone I decided to post again with new pictures. I purchased my drone from FPVpilot.com and for the most part I love it. I changed the booms from C section to square tubing (with rubber grommets between the boom and main frame), mounted the motors using X mounts dampened with neoprene rubber washers, changed the landing gears for something of my own design using 3/4" aluminum flat bars (hand bent to V shape and dampened).
Frame: FPVpilot.com (with some modifications)
Autopilot: APM 2 purple complete
Motors: RC Timer BC2836 880 kv
ESC: RC Timer 30 amp programmable
Props: APC 10 X 4.7 Slow Flyer
Battery: Sky 4s 5000mAh (2 in parallel)
Flight Time: 20 minutes (3.6v low)
Radio: Futaba 7c 2.4 ghz
Cameras: Gopro HD2 and Tachyon Ops (rear facing)
Here's a link to view my hexahere
That is a very impressive hexa. That 20 min flight time is superb for an amateur multicopter.
I have a few questions:
How heavy is your hexa including the two batteries?
Do you know how much payload capacity it has?
Also, do you happen to know around how much thrust each motor puts out at full power?
I'm trying to build a quadcopter for FPV with a decent flight time. I'm aiming for 15min+
Thank You
frame: 3dr-b
controller/autopilot: APM 2, external GPS
motors: diydrones 880kv
esc: diydrones 20A
propellers:APC 11*4.7
battery: Zippy LiFe 4200 3s / 4s
flying time: 11min
radio: Spektrum DX8
video/osd: none yet
other: sonar, optical flow, 3dr radio
Misc (hacks/mods): wooden mounts for sonar & optical flow, led strips, fluorescent swimmers as orientation indicators.
weight: 1169 grams plain, 1600 grams with 3s LiFe, 1700 grams with 4s LiFe
Quad --> OctoQuad
Modded ESC's on a distro board with Attopilot 180A current board.
APM Mods - see the extra cap next to the ADC chip for the sonar, and the breakout for the outputs needed for an octo.
Frame: Custom
Controller: APM1
Motors: JDrones 880kv
ESC's: Flashed JDrones 30A
Props: 12" x 4.7"
Battery: 4s 5500mah
TX: Eurgle 9x running ER9x with FrSky telemtry
Video: 540TVL Camera 5.8ghz 600mw TX
Extra's: Sonar, Optical Flow, Xbee, GPS, Mag, Atto Pilot
Board modded to filter sonar better and easy connection of outputs 7 and 8
Weight: 1700g without battery, 2230g with 4s 5500mah
Other Stuff: Ardustation
I haven't posted here often, but I thought it would be fun to share info on my quad. First, the obligatory:
frame: My own quad frame + electronics enclosure.
controller/autopilot: APM1
motors: 880kv
esc: 18A (Turnigy Basic)
propellers: 10x4.7
battery: 3S 4000mAh
flying time: ~9Min
weight: 4.1 lbs
radio: Hitec Aurora
video/osd: GoPro, minimosd, 5.8Ghz Fatshark transmitter, Fatshark dominator goggles (All removed in the most recent pictures for basic testing)
other: Sonar, Xbee, GPS/Mag (All removed in the most recent pictures for basic testing)
Front picture (that is a custom go-pro mount hanging from the front)
Rear: Notice the sonar.
The arms and core structure (which fastens the arms) were milled out of 6061 alum. After destroying several other frames, I wanted something sturdy that I could learn on. This most recent one has survived 20+ *very* hard landings without issue.
The electronics enclosure is the fourth enclosure, but only the third printed variation. It holds the receiver, apm1, and gps. The top is laser cut (so that I can see LEDs easily). The holes that you see are there for fastening the xbee and video transmitter to the top. I need a good enclosure for those, but haven't undertaken that yet.
The battery + sonar mount is PLA printed on my reprap. After having an incident where the batter slipped out of the velcro straps in flight, this one has a 6mm lip that holds the battery from shifting while the velcro holds it snug. There is a box that holds and protects the sonar itself from damage which is attached to the sonar mount.
The gopro mount is printed PLA as well. It holds the go-pro very well and you can see in the videos how vibration free/smooth the it is.
All of the parts were designed in cad programs and milled/printed/lasercut on CNC machines. I'm very pleased with the result. If anyone would like to see some pictures of the previous frames, enclosures, or process I'd be happy to share in a reply. See the video links below (and excuse the beginner flying).
Most recent manual flight: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QuEyrV_vmXA
2.6 loiter mode test: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2mPJFdtJoQ
Old flights ...
You can visit my profile for some pics of a few of my quad designs. Didn't want to put too much on a post. So far they have all shared the same gear and weight range, or close enough. Designs are with sport flying in mind, being able to roll and flip. Although the thrust/weight should offer a decent payload, no tests or design accomidations have been made.
I have an APM2 on order and am looking forward to getting the latest version quad to maiden on my new controller!!!
more about specific versions here as well.
frame: my own designs
controller/autopilot: KK v5.5 (different "brands")
motors: eMax GT 2205 -1660kv
esc: Hobbywing 12A
propellers: 8 x4.3 SF
battery: 1800 2s 30c or 1800 3s 30c
weight: 14-16.5oz depending on frame and cell count
flying time: 14-18min depends on stunts or just flying
Can you give the weight sizing as well? Thank.
That is a good idea, let me add it to the original post.
frame: Personal monstrous design. 3/4 Aluminum tubing
controller/autopilot: APM2
esc: Turnigy Plush 60A
motors: E-Flite Power 32 770kV
propellers: APC 13x4 Electric
motor to motor distance: 36 inches
battery: Turnigy 20-30C 4S 5000 mAh
total weight: ~8 lbs
flying time: Wouldn't know. Can't fly it for more than 30 secs before crashing
radio: E-Flite LP5DSM
other: Lots of Zip-Ties that seem to come off at the wrong times
Misc (hacks/mods): Carefully crafted StarBucks Directional Indicator
I think I may have built this thing waaaay too big and heavy. Can't seem to tune the PID to keep it steady. Constantly have to fight it to keep it somewhat leveled, otherwise it draws blood. Anyone have any ideas?

text: Globe and Mail -- A torrent of oil pumped from new wells across the U.S. is setting in motion a decade of dramatic change that promises to wean the country off OPEC, and threatens the growth of energy imports from Canada.The U.S. is now staring at an energy future awash with its own crude, with far-reaching consequences for Canada's oil sands, the U.S. economy and global geopolitics. This massive shift has been sparked by changing political sentiment and technological advances that have allowed crude to be tapped in new places – from North Dakota to Oklahoma, Colorado, Michigan, and even Florida.The United States, according to new data released Monday by Bentek, a U.S. energy analysis firm, will see its oil production rise nearly five million barrels a day, or 74 per cent, in the next decade.

- "Brazil's capital markets appear to be suffering from a sudden flight of capital," says Michael Shaoul, warning of a danger of "abrupt collapse in investor confidence ... Brazil should be watched closely in the days ahead."
- The Bovespa slid another 1.75% today, but more alarmingly, the country's 10-year yield spread (vs. the U.S.) shot to its highest level since the summer of 2009.
- This morning, Q3 GDP was reported to have contracted by 0.5%, worse than expectations. From Capital Economics: "Brazil is not particularly attractive to foreign firms ... Woefully low domestic savings mean that Brazil relies on attracting foreign capital in order to fund investment projects. But with the current account already in a significant deficit, there is little scope for running up an even larger external deficit to fund investment."
- Off 1.3% today, the iShares MSCI Brazil Index ETF (EWZ) is down 20% YTD.

- Brazil's Q3 GDP contracts 0.5%, missing estimates of a 0.3% contraction, and the worst performance since 2011 Q3. On a Y/Y basis, the economy grew 2.2%. The decline in Q3 was led by agriculture, which fell 3.5%. Investment also declined 2.2%.
- The news adds to complications for President Rousseff who is up for election next year. Her government has already slashed by nearly half its forecast for robust 4.5% growth in 2013.
- The central bank last week continued its rate-hike cycle, but gave indications a pause could be coming soon, and the slow GDP report is unlikely to change that view.

- Brazil's November PMI slips to 49.7 from 50.2 previously, the move into contraction territory led by New Orders which stayed below 50 for the 5th consecutive month.
- "The only good news was that the measures of inflation included in the PMI report also lost momentum: firms saw input prices rising at the slowest pace since June and output prices climbing at the weakest rate since May," says HSBC's Andre Loes.Brazil's central bank raised the Selic 50 basis points to 10% late last week - but a tweak to the statement has some economists predicting just one more rate hike for this monetary tightening cycle (the Selic was 7.25% in April).

- Fifty-one percent say they are pessimistic about the president's policies, up from 22% when she took office in January 2011, according to a Bloomberg survey. Only 10% say the country can avoid a credit rating downgrade in the next year. Compared to other major global markets, Brazil - says the survey - is expected to offer one of the worst opportunities over the next year.
- Moody's last month followed S&P in lowering it credit outlook on Brazil to stable from positive, citing the 59% debt-to-GDP ratio compared to 45% median for other countries with the same rating.
- The central bank has boosted the benchmark Selic rate by 225 basis points since April to 9.5%, and shows no sign of stopping this month.
- That's a lot of bad news and bad sentiment. In the meantime, the stock market has fallen and can't get up. EWZ is off 15% YTD and about 40% from 3 years ago (and down 0.4% premarket). Opportunity?

- Initiating cautious coverage on 8 Brazilian retail sector names (7 Holds, 1 Sell), Citigroup says multiples look expensive considering macroeconomic headwinds - among them rising inflation and interest rates coupled with a high level of consumer indebtedness.
- "Slower demand presents top-line risks for Brazilian retailers exposed to the mid- and lower-income segments. Moreover, inflation could push operating expenses up while rising interest rates pressure financial costs for leveraged companies."
- The central bank hiked the Selic for the 5th straight meeting last month and gave no indication it's going to break the string in November.Brazil ETFs: EWZ, BRF, BZF, BRXX, EWZS, BRAQ, BRAZ, BZQ, BRAF, UBR, BRZU, FBZ, BRZS, DBBR

- "By April or May, when credit rating agencies visit Brazil, fiscal accounts will have improved," Bloomberg says, summing up comments from Guido Mantega, Brazil's finance minister.
- In an effort to address concerns about the country's budget deficit, Mantega says Brazil's state lender BNDES will cut lending by a fifth in 2014.
- Next year, the development bank will give out around $66.6B in new loans, slightly less than it provided in 2012.
- Both S&P and Moody's have cut their outlook on the country this year amid concerns about rising debt levels tied to public lending.

- Taking advantage of the quick change in sentiment towards emerging markets in general and Brazil in particular, the Brazilian government today issued $3.2B in bond dues 2025. The paper was priced to yield 4.305%. About one billion of the total will be fresh cash for the government, the rest will pay off existing debt.
- With developed market interest rates on the rise this summer, few had interest in emerging market debt, but the last several weeks have seen the taper delayed, the nomination of Janet Yellen to lead the Fed, and a sharp drop in interest rates. With U.S. rates looking like they're staying lower for longer, emerging market yields - no matter the risk (Brazil's credit rating outlook was lowered from positive to stable by Moody's this month) - become more enticing.
- Also helping is a Brazilian central bank refocusing on inflation - it hiked its benchmark rate to 9.5% this month and gave every indication 10% is coming in November.

- It's the 5th consecutive rate hike for the central bank, which raised the benchmark Selic 50 basis points to 9.5%. No changes were made to the accompanying statement, implying #6 is coming at November's meeting.
- Economist consensus has rates at 9.75% by year's end, and many foresee double-digits in 2014. The most recent CPI data has annualized inflation at 5.86% - lower than a couple of months ago - but still well above the 4.5% marking the top end of the target level.
- The Bovespa is lagging most major markets today, +0.5%.

- Moody's cuts its outlook on Brazil's Baa2 credit rating to Stable from Positive, citing deterioration in key credit metrics, an economy unable to break out of a slow-growth phase, and "deterioration in reporting quality of the government accounts."
- The government's debt-to-GDP ratios and the country's investment-to-GDP ratios are weaker than those of sovereigns with just a Baa rating, says Moody's. "Even though there are signs that the Brazilian economy may be starting to recover, Moody's view is that, if and when the upturn materializes, it is unlikely that it will be strong enough to restore a positive trend in Brazil credit metrics, a condition necessary to merit a positive outlook on the country's sovereign rating."

- Brazil's PMI edges up to 49.9 in September from 49.4 previously. New orders and export orders both remained in contraction territory, but at a slower pace of decline, and output rose for the first time in three months.
- Input prices however, accelerated sharply amid the decline in the real (BZF), with the index jumping to its highest level in nearly 5 years.

- Mexico's Corona beer, produced by Anheuser Busch Inbev (BUD) and Constellation Brands (STZ), marched into the top spot with a brand value of $6.6B, up 29% Y/Y, according to the survey; PBR suffered a 45% drop in its brand value to $5.76B.
- Brazil's lackluster economic growth, reliance on commodities exports and government meddling has taken a toll on brand value in 2013.

- The famously bearish-on-China Jim Chanos and Goldman's former sunny BRIC evangelist Jim O'Neill spent half an hour talking China at a Bloomberg conference last night.
- China will have a "credit event" in five years, says Chanos; the Chinese economy will double in five years to $16T (the size of the U.S.), says O'Neill.
- I can't really argue with being short the 'old' China," says O'Neill. Any slowing of the economy is being done deliberately in order to shift from a focus on investment to one on consumption. The "new" China will lead to investment opportunity.
- If you think the macro picture in China is ugly, wait until you look at he micro picture, says Chanos.
- Among the points the two agree on is mining - the industry will face difficulties. Those countries (Brazil and Australia come to mind) with exposure to iron ore will be in trouble over the next 12 months, says Chanos.

- More on Brazil's planned auction of the Libra oil prospect: Only 11 companies registered to participate - far fewer than the expected 40 - and some of the biggest firms backed out, including Exxon (XOM), Chevron (CVX) and BP (earlier).
- Asian state-owned companies dominate the list of participants: India's ONGC, Malaysia's Petronas, Colombia's Ecopetrol (EC), China's Cnooc (CEO) and China National Petroleum (PTR); China's Sinopec (SNP) will take part through joint ventures with Brazilian units of Spain's Repsol (REPYY.PK, REPYF.PK) and Portugal's Galp Energia (GLPEF.PK).
- Also taking part: Shell (RDS.A, RDS.B), Total (TOT) and Mitsui (MITSY.PK, MITSF.PK).
- Analysts blame the lack of interest on new rules drawn up by Brazil's government that place development and profits under greater state control; too many companies don't want "the trouble of dealing with Petrobras (PBR) and the government. You can get good oil assets elsewhere without that."

Hertz Furniture's huge selection of soft play toys, cushions, riding toys and play yards will make an exciting addition to any classroom or preschool gym. These vinyl toys are safe and easy to clean. If you are looking for a way to liven up an early-childhood learning space in a stimulating, educational way, soft play equipment is an excellent choice.
With many little ones playing and exploring in your classroom, it can be difficult to maintain a clean, germ-free environment. Soft play toys that are made of fabric can easily become stained and absorb germs. Unlike fabric, vinyl will not absorb stains or germs. It can be quickly cleaned on a regular basis, or in the event of an accidental spill. Easy cleaning is important in an environment where babies, toddlers and preschoolers play in close proximity because it prevents germs and colds from spreading.
Create your very own indoor playground with a set of climbing shapes. Our great selection of large shapes can be arranged in a myriad of ways to promote problem-solving and gross-motor skills development. Children can choose to play with individual pieces such as tunnels and slides, or practice running, climbing and tumbling through a whole obstacle course.
Children's Factory soft climbing toys can be fastened together safely in a number of different configurations. Caregivers can make obstacle courses that are progressively challenging or focus on particular skills. Young learners will just love coming into school in the morning to see the new courses that have been created just for them. Alternatively, little ones can express their creativity and take initiative by designing their own challenges.
Babies need to spend time on their tummies and lie on the floor in different positions in order to develop important coordination skills and strengthen particular muscles. Colorful cushions enable babies and little ones to rest or sit on the floor comfortably. They come in a wide selection of fun animal shapes including ladybug, bee, caterpillar, turtle, alligator and more. They provide the perfect venue for tummy time or a bit of calm relaxing.
Worried about crawlers and early walkers getting injured when they trip and fall on the classroom floor? Play yards keep curious crawlers and beginning walkers in a safe enclosed area, while providing plenty of space to move around, explore and play. They are even large enough for caregivers to step inside and take part in the fun or sit down and read a book with students.
Another enclosed padded space that can be tons of fun is a cushy ball pit. Soft padded walls keep lots of colorful balls enclosed in the pool as young ones practice grasping, throwing and distinguishing colors. Ball pits encourage children to explore textures and play together.
Soft riding and rocking toys let little ones feel like the big guys with their very own vehicles. Unlike hard plastic toys, soft riding toys mold to fit the child for comfortable sitting and support. They can be enjoyed individually or in groups as children rock and ride independently or race and practice steering around.
For some extra fun with soft play toys, consider adding mirrors to an obstacle course. Young students will just love watching themselves as they maneuver around and learn to conquer new challenges. As they observe their own movements, babies and toddlers will develop greater awareness of their bodies and improved spatial sense.
Hertz Furniture's soft play equipment will fit right into your preschool or daycare classroom. Whether you have a whole gym to fill or just a bit of extra space for a new item or two, we have a number of fun educational pieces that are sure to spark the curiosity of your little explorers. If you aren't sure how to arrange your climbing toys or play yard, or you just need some help choosing the ideal soft animal cushion, contact the Hertz Design Center for free design and project help.

BMW Releases New 6 Series Coupe
Filed under: Luxury Cars & Autos
Several months ago BMW revealed the new 6 Series Convertible. But unlike archrival Mercedes-Benz' SL-Class, the 6 Series doesn't come only in drop-top form. And now the Bavarian automaker has released its fixed-roof counterpart.
The 2012 BMW 650i Coupe is initially available with the company's 4.4-liter, twin-turbocharged V8 engine, driving 400 horsepower to the rear wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission. It sits nestled in a new shape with tauter lines, and comes packed with all the latest luxury features and safety technology you'd expect from this level of European sports coupe.
