Mechanical
Name: Integral Active Steering
Description: Integral Active Steering varies the front steering ratio (amount of steering wheel rotation required to turn a given corner), based on vehicle speed and other driving conditions. It reduces steering wheel rotations (therefore reducing effort) required during low speed maneuvering and increases steering wheel rotations required during high speed maneuvering (the latter reducing the likelihood the driver will turn sharply at high speed, thereby helping maintain high speed stability). Additionally, when the front wheels are turned, Integral Active Steering turns the rear wheels as much as 2.5 degrees opposite phase (opposite direction of the front wheels) at lower vehicle speeds or same phase (same direction of the front wheels) at higher vehicle speeds. The opposite phase motion reduces the turning circle, while the same phase motion enhances the car's high speed stability.

Safety
Name: ACC Stop & Go + Active Driving Assistant
Description: When engaged, Active Cruise Control with Stop & Go operates as normal cruise control until it senses a slower moving vehicle directly ahead. At that time, the cruise control matches the speed of the 6 Series to that of the slower moving vehicle, maintaining a driver selected, pre-set distance between the two vehicles. The Stop & Go function will bring the 6 Series to a complete stop if the vehicle ahead stops. Upon application of the accelerator, Active Cruise Control allows the car start moving again. Once there's no longer any nearby slower moving traffic ahead, the cruise control resumes initial speed set by the driver; Active Driving Assistant, which includes Forward Collision Warning, Pedestrian Warning, City Collision Mitigation and Lane Departure Warning, which when the car is moving at highway speeds, senses any course deviations that could cause the car to cross the road's lane markings while the turn signal is not in use. If such a deviation is identified, the driver is alerted with a vibration sent through the steering wheel. This feature can be deactivated by the driver.
Name: Parking Assistant
Description: When engaged, Parking Assistant surveys the size of available nearby parking spaces to determine which ones are of adequate size for the 6 Series. When a space of adequate size is found by Parking Assistant and selected by the driver, this feature will provide all steering inputs required to maneuver the car into that space. In a combined effort with Parking Assistant, the driver must select the appropriate gear and control the accelerator and brakes to park the car.
Name: Night Vision W/Pedestrian Detection
Description: Night Vision with Pedestrian Detection utilizes an infrared camera that monitors a range reaching 980 feet ahead. The camera detects objects within its range and the images of these objects are displayed on the screen located in the center of the dashboard. This feature can also detect a pedestrian up to 330 feet ahead and determine that person's direction of movement. If a pedestrian is detected and appears to be moving towards the road, a visual warning appears in the display screen.

We deliver cars using maritime transport for efficiency and safety. After processing the necessary documents, we transport the car to the nearest port, where it is loaded onto a ship for secure delivery to the destination. For the final leg of delivery from the port to the customer's home, we use ground transportation in the form of car carriers. Our process ensures reliable and timely delivery of your car.
Throughout the entire delivery process, our cars undergo thorough protection. They are insured for the entire transportation period, ensuring safety and coverage of potential risks. Additionally, to prevent damage and preserve the exterior, we use car covers, and inside the car, we install moisture absorbers. These measures ensure the preservation of cars in excellent condition throughout the entire journey to the customer.
To participate in a car auction in the USA or Canada, you need to register on our website, make a small deposit (a mandatory requirement for all auctions), and then specify the desired maximum bid for the car. If the car is sold for the amount you specified or even less, you will become its owner. In some auctions, you may also need to wait for the seller's approval of the final bid.
