Hardcore version of the 6 series

Overview Information

There is something formidable about the M6. With a 500-bhp 5.0L V-10 and a 7-speed SMG (Sequential Manual Gearbox), the M6 rips from 0-60 mph in 4.5 seconds on its way to a electronically limited 155-mph top speed. To keep all the power under control, BMW offers three different engine performance settings: P400, P500, and P500 Sport. The SMG has 11 transmission calibrations to handle any driving conditions. The DSC (Dynamic Stability Control) system is tuned to allow more aggressive driving before it intervenes. To save weight, the M6 has a carbon-fiber roof & bumper supports, as well as a thermoplastic hood and fenders. Exterior upgrades include a unique air dam, rear diffuser, and quad rear tailpipes. With its intimidating combination of power and style, the M6 is a GT coupe without peer. The M6 is priced at about $100,000 when you add destination charges and a gas-guzzler tax.
