Since being unveiled at the Paris Motor Show earlier this year, the 2011 BMW 6-Series has been getting its fair share of face time in the news lately.

The latest rumor involving the all-new 6-Series has it that the car is going to make an appearance in Mission Impossible: The Ghost Protocol. We're not sure we're digging the title of the fourth installment of the MI franchise, but that's not really important right now.

What should be noted is that the 6-Series will be there as Ethan Hunt's ride-of-choice in his latest daredevil mission. Filming for the movie is already underway in parts of Dubai and the UK where there will be a number of car chase scenes involving the new 6-Series, along with other BMW->ke178 models.

And if you want to add more wood to this fire, there's also a rumor coming out that a certain celebrity was invited to a recent preview of the 6-Series Convertible in Munich, Germany. Yep, no other than Mr. Ethan Hunt himself, Tom Cruise.

Very interesting, indeed.
