BMW, having perpetuated a well proven model, finds itself with an extremely unique product targeting a success-oriented clientele that seems bound and determined to gravitate to the blue and white roundel. The 645 Ci will certainly add to the brand's charge up the sales charts, offering an aspirational flagship coupe in the process. In the end, it's one sexy beast.
