World's fastest BMW

750hp and 0-100km/h in only 4.4 seconds? Something's not right. 370km/h top speed is nice tho.

4.4 sec? That is it?

Wtf? Although M6's are heavy, but...that heavy?

 

[ballmode]

meh

 

[angry hampster]

god that's hideous.

 

[TehMac]

Wikipedia has the 2006 M6 clocked in at around 4.3 seconds, beating the 4.4 shit. But damn, 750bhp and 4.4 seconds?

Twin supercharged? Where is all that fucking power going?


Edit: Road and Track has been able to get their M6 to go 0-60 in 3.8 seconds.

Not at all surprising considering BMW is very conservative with their 0-60 numbers.

Those are some DAMN wide rear tires!

 

[zerocool84]

It most likely can't hook up. The ZR-1 would be faster 0-60 if it could hook up better as would many cars. 0-60 isn't the final word in a car's performance but I do agree that it's ugly and needs some more torque.

Looks more like that Chrysler POS thing from a few years back. Forget it's name.

you know, it's amazing how much I love the rear of the 6-series... and absolutely despise the front end with the sleepy lights and round face.

Umm yea.......for how heavy it is and the amount of torque vs hp it's not that much compared to many other cars.

 

[IronWing]

Ugly. Does it come in a 4-door?

It looks like it's sad

 

[TehMac]

Did you guys see the new 6 series? It looks pretty good, imo.

 

[Pariah]

Looks like the BMW version of a Brabus Mercedes. Ridiculous amounts of HP, but completely useless because only a small fraction of it can be put the ground.

 

[Fenixgoon]

i think it looks good - reminds me of the chrysler crossfire

It's conserative and about putting power to the actual ground without spinning like a mofo...

The M6 is also pretty f0cking heavy...

gearing for economy and top end?

4.4 secs is amazingly quick, quicker than most drivers can handle safely.

That Chrysler POS was a Mercedes with just a different skin. It was a good car and the SRT-6 version was a beast.

 

[thomsbrain]

100-200 kph takes barely more than 0-100, so I'd say it has serious traction problems.

It's gearing for 11 mpg economy.

I really like the looks of it. It has a mean stance.
