I'm excited to see it in action (even if it looks a bit fat) images/smilies/mrgreen.gif

Jostyrostelli · December 14th, 2004, 12:32 PM

Hmmm....not quite sure if I like it or not....

Ethan · December 14th, 2004, 1:16 PM

5.0-litre V10 engine producing 507bhp
Seven-speed SMG (personally programmable)

I like to test that

andyhui01 · December 14th, 2004, 2:32 PM

Thanatos · December 14th, 2004, 2:33 PM

it looks fat and heavy indeed. it looks like its in the same class as the 850 then the 635CSi from 1985

ca6 · December 14th, 2004, 2:58 PM

I prefer theese rims...

idletask · December 14th, 2004, 3:17 PM

1710 kg... Ouch!

andyhui01 · December 14th, 2004, 3:59 PM

na... I've always liked 5-spoke rims

Daniel · December 14th, 2004, 4:03 PM

Finally its getting the power it deserves! Wohoo! images/smilies/mrgreen.gif

Derek · December 14th, 2004, 4:08 PM

Looks riced, but it isn't even riced yet images/smilies/eek.gif

Imagine it would be riced! images/smilies/eek.gif

Not my style.

chaos386 · December 14th, 2004, 4:33 PM

1710kg sounds like a lot, but the E39 M5 weighed over 1800kg, and the 850CSi weighed in at a hefty 1925kg. The M6 is definitely more 6 than 8.

Jostyrostelli · December 14th, 2004, 4:42 PM

M3 is 1600kg as I remember.

It is too high/the wheels are to small and it looks way too friendly. Look at the front bumper, the car seems to be smiling... images/smilies/wacko.gif

Compared to this one I like the M5's styling much better! Btw, I would go for the M5 anyway. (almost the same weight, cheaper, more room etc.)
