BMW M6

I am wondering..what are your thoughts and impressions on the new BMW M6?

Highlights

7Spd transmission
Carbon Fiber Roof (bling?)
V-10...with an RPM peak of 8500, the v-10 produces 500hp and a measly 383ft-tq....

Cons

Price....

Opinions?

Re: BMW M6

I guess, from what I can remember, you get a boat-load of options. Of course, for $80,000 they better make it worth the money..

Like any other BMW sports car, overpriced for the performance in my opinion..

That is because it isn't purely a sports car. You are getting more than speed and handling.

anyway... i've got a 745i now... and have considered going with a 650i. Just love the car.

Top Gear did a comparison of the new Aston-Martin V8 Vantage (the "Baby Aston"), the BMW M6, and the Porsche 911S.

It's about 1/4 of the way through, after their review of the Ascari.

Awful styling. Its stock wheels look ten times better on the E46 M3.

It's part of the reason the M6 is something like 246lbs lighter, and slightly quicker in high end. You probably wouldn't notice by seat of pants though...

One observation, of course, more torque is always good, however, I would expect the 7 speed tranny and high redline to help make up for that.

The top gear that elias linked to said 80,000 pounds was the price.

Waaay out of my league!
