Got into the auto show tonight via VIP night (open to regular public Friday, thanks go to Z06racer for getting me in ), and I got to sit in Lambos and some other exotics. It was awesome. Well, we get to the M6 and the damn thing was roped off and kept about 15 feet away from viewers! I just could not understand how the Lambos would be open for people to sit in and look at up close, yet the M6 was off limits even on VIP night. This just baffles me.
In any case, the car looks absolutely delicious in person. I really did not like the 6 series before tonight but I would rock the M6 any day of the week. I forgot which color it was, but it was one of the blues. The new M5 was was out and available for closer inspection, (it was out on the regular floor sitting next to an imola red E46 m3) and that car is hot in person as well. Pictures and videos do not do the new M5 and M6 any justice at all.
Well you could still see the beast
We had no M6 at the san diego autoshow !

I think the 5er and 6er look good in M apparel but I can't get to like the front on either of them

M6 is nice, but if I were in position to spend $97k on a car(s), I'd spend it on something else.
So was anyone else there at the show on Thursday? There were a ridiculous amount of bimmers in the parking garage including a lot of E39 M5s and E36 M3s.
My camera ended up "missing" during a bf.c party... Otherwise I woulda had pics.Originally Posted by Daved
Interlogos is the color you're looking for.
I can't wait to see the M6 in person, I can't make a judgement on pictures. Hopefully they'll have one at the Chicago auto show so I can .
I believe the LA Auto Show was the first auto show for the M6. So, any future auto shows will definately have it. Get ready to watch it from 20+ feet away though.
I would definetly sell my body for an M6
Most likely it is a Euro spec or a pre-producton M6. BMW will never let anybody sit in (or get close to) a pre-production model.Originally Posted by SQ Bimmer
Cool, Ive seen the M5 many times, But I am yet to see the M6...
I didn't think about that, I think you hit the nail on the head with this one.Originally Posted by gobuffs
did the M6 look anything like the fake vert spotted in Iran?
Hey man, I'm a professional!
This fake vert in Iran you speak of isn't ringing a bell, but I'm gonna go ahead and answer YES.Originally Posted by themadhatter
I'm not that crazy about the E60 M5 look, though it's grown on me a lot since it was introduced. The M6, on the other hand, I'm still waiting for it to improve.
