M6 ... Should I ?

Postby The Swede » Wed Nov 09, 2005 9:21 am

Just got a mail offering me a M6 in lease. Cancelled order.

1075 GBP per month.

This looks pretty tempting considering a 2006 STi or FQ340 are around 600 GBP and a 650Ci is 950 per month.

STi is only out of lease next year, but I could replace mine by this and get the wife her 'normal' car next year... Image

Up close they look amazing in my humble opinion.

The question is: How long will I still live with an M6 ! :?

They indeed look great. Sat in one at the BMW dealer in Swansea and really liked the interior. It really feels like a very special car.

Rally Driver "The Swede" can handle an M6!

I wouldn't think twice if I could afford one!

What's the waiting list for an M6 ?

I'm just wondering what it would be if I'd wait until next spring and get it then.

Plus, is it really more fun to drive than a good WR1 or an FQ340 or 400 ? It's still a heavy car with lot's of electronics trying to make it driveable for the City tw@ts with more money than driving skills.

So brummies (no need for a capital letter :2:) get a M.I.N. ?

We're just registered as people with a name and surname.

V.I.N. = Vehicle Identification Number.

So since brummies get a number too... Image

Good point.

Must still say, it looks a bit like a pimp car, doesn't it ?

M6 - not really my cup of tea.

New M5 - now your talking my language - get one of these and youve got the 8) est car of the moment in my opinion.
200mph for 60odd grand :shock: - bargain !!! - love it (in white please :D )

Nope, still there. Only Bluetooth as option and colour still to be specified for delivery early January.

Still awaiting how much it 'd be if I took a 'normal' one.

Contrary to POESY, I am not an M5 (or M3) fan. There are so many 'tarted up' 3 and 5-series around and second hand M5's that I do not like the image at all.
I would hope you won't see an M6 too quickly being raced around a London suburb by two 28 year old inhabitants of the old colonies.

Bugger.

Wife been offered a specialisation place in Clinical Genetics in Northern Finland (pretty hard to come by and only got to do 2.5 years anymore instead of 8 years if we come to UK. So it's gonna be hard negociation for me).

Artic circle no good place for M6. Back to the Scoob or Evo. :mad:
