not new news the info has been in diffrent mags for a few months now but who cares i love the M6

[pajama]

dont like the body design at all, the motor makes up for it though.

[WCM3]

yeah seriously...whats this path that BMW is off to. I honestly don't like the new rounded body styles. Especially the 6 series...i have to say my favorite body was the e36 body styles. I dno't even think that much power could make up for how much i dislike the body.

At least it looks better than the M5.

"Expect prices to begin at around $140,000 to $150,000."

Wow! Why so much? If the M5 starts around $80,000, why would you buy an M6 if you can get that same powerplant for half the cost? I think the M5 is more practical, but the M6 doesn't look too bad. Unique, is the word for it.

Four new colors will be available, exclusive to the M6: Indianapolis Red, Interlagos Blue, Silverstone and Sepang Bronze.

Exclusive? The M3 Competition Package has Interlagos Blue!

I think that is $140K-$150K Canadian dollars.

Those prices are purely speculative. Remember they were saying that the M5 would start at $90k and probably end up being around $100k. Now we have the official price from BMW and it's $80k. I wouldn't believe anything yet unless it's official from BMW.

needs some torque, hopefully the csl will come through...

Thats why this engine was designed to be used exclusively with SMG. The SMG gearing keeps this engine in the perfect powerband at all times during hard acceleration.

[ithrowcraze]

bah thats not alot of torque and its 0-60 is not blazingly fast for having 500hp. and 140Gs? I'd rather spend that on a porshe turbo.
