My friend got an M6.. **Sick**

damn, thats like an extra 400 lbs...good thing it has power

Oh hahaha.. Its his parent. Doh!

I dont think the little M button unleaches the extra HP. As far as I know you can't get full power from the engine until you take it back to the dealer after a certain amount of miles are on the engine. The 'M' button may be for the 'F1 style' launch... at least that was the case with the M5.

I thought it was +/- 10hp per mildy funny comment a senior member made?

On the M5 it did change the output of the v10 from 400hp to 500hp and adjusted suspension for stiffer ride and how the tranny shifted and activated side bolsters on the seats for better support in corners..

Does it not work the same way on the m6 ?

I believe after watching the Top Gear tests on the M5 and M6, you select between 400 or 500hp from the I Drive menu. The M button unleashes that "extra 7hp", but it also sharpens throttle response, speeds up gear shifts, and firms up the suspension.

That's alot of weght on the wheel to balance such a nice new tire and rim combo.

Don't like the new 6 and I do like the M5.

I drove my friend's M6, the SMG is pretty annoying for DD and even
when you get on it, the shifts don't feel solid enough. If anyone has ever driven an automatic car with a slipping tranny, that's what this car drives like. I like the roof though.

does no one else here think its butt ugly?

yes, but the change in power wasn't available until the engine was 'broken in'. You have to take it to the dealer after a certain mileage in order to get the full 500hp

no... not the prettiest thing... but def. not butt ugly!

Pontiac Aztec is butt ugly, the new 6 isnt as bad as a Pontiac Aztec... a Pontiac Aztec.

Thats right..

[DarkWing6]

Probably my favorite car on the lot right now. I'd get new wheels though.


Uber hot! I wanna drive it too. ;)

shift knob = small, erect penis.

the m6 is cool, but it's much too expensive for my taste.
