Default My mate's new car.

Just before I left for work this morning there was a knock at my front door I opened it up and my best mate was there and he said have a look at my new company car (he has just started work for shell) the jammy **** has got a brand new BMW m6 in black it is stunning with a 7 speed sports auto the ****ing thing fly's I though the m5 was quick but this thing is a different breed all together smooth, quick, comfort all the mod cons. When I finish work we are going for a spin and I'm having a drive, I dont think I have been so excited about driving a car as I am about this one, anyways will let you know how it goes and I will try to get some pics and post them when I can.

I've always been a BMW fan, Antony here at Indigo picked up a brand new M3 a couple of weeks back, the onboard gadgets are amazing, it's like being on the bridge of the Enterprise, I am a little bias towards the M3, if I didn't love the sheer rawness of my Impreza I'd undoubtedly be driving one myself!

How can it be a "different breed" from the M5. They have the exact same engine and gearbox and the exact same power. The M6 is a little lighter but not so much so that you are likely to notice that much of a difference.

It's all psychological.....that sports coupe shape is worth another 150bhp (in your head) over the sedan

I thought they stopped making the M6 last year?
They only do the 640i/650i and 640d now.

Might be some un registered ones rotting in a field somewhere - they weren't exactly good VFM as a new buy...
