Does anyone wish..
Your M6 had the glass roof like the standard 6 Series?.. I currently have a 650i and one thing that's keeping me from upgrading to the M6 is the carbon roof. I literally keep the shade back at all times and love the sunlight I get from the glass roof. I like the M more for the styling than the performance so the added weight of a glass roof wouldn't deter me from purchasing an M car.. What are you guys' thoughts?..

I have the LCI M5 and enjoy the sun roof light that comes in, however I have the M6 GC CP on order and will not really miss it on that car.
I like the idea of a lower Centre of Gravity.

I looked into updating the look of my 650i to get the wider stance of the M cars. While researching I found that the reason the stance looked so good was due to the fact that M fenders and wheels were wider. Going for a wider wheel wouldn't give me the same effect so to speak. My lease isn't up for a while so there plenty of time to ponder this. Just wanted the thoughts of some of the M6 owners.. Thanks.. |

I love the carbon fibre roof. A lot of people have commented on it aesthetically, notwithstanding the performance benefits. It's one of the features that makes the M6 special. Besides, in the UK we only get sun for about 2-3 weeks a year

I love the CF roof.
A sun roof would reduce the head room by an inch or so as well as increasing the weight of the roof. The only times I've opened the sun roof on my E39 M5 in 6 years, except for when I changed the head liner, is to wash it! |
