New M6 Gran Coupe!!!

sactown75 · 06-02-2016, 06:51 PM

After years of enjoying my 2012 C63 coupe Edition 1...i needed to upgrade to a "family" car

...so far i am blown away and i thought the stock C63 exhaust note was irreplaceable!!!
Windows are getting tinted and i will post new pics this weekend!

How does it feel around corners compared to your C63?

sactown75 · 06-04-2016, 12:12 AM

so far pretty similar...however the c63 is better on tight corners (most likely due to the size)...ill keep you posted as i still have the c63 and i have not really pushed the m6 as of yet,

So far so good...it appears to be dampened by the interior cabin while driving compared to the Benz, which is truly pretty awesome. Performance, the m6 trumps.

Did u get the full merino leather interior? Otherwise, that cheap looking plastic dash is unacceptable in an M6.

I have driven the E63 sedan and the M6 GC on the track (VIMC) Back to Back ... and the M3 and C63 AMG-s ... in both cases the BMW Ruled!!!

I still love my S63 AMG as BMW doesn't have an M7 yet

However, on the track ... I do agree the BMWs seem to be a MUCH BETTER HANDLING PRODUCT ... now to track my M6 Cab

Keep us posted ... I think you will love the Akra! I so love mine

Yes! Full leather...totally agree, shouldn't even be an option imho!!!

my wife and I took a day trip to napa for lunch and a little wine tasting for her birthday...it turned out to be more of birthday present to myself...highway 128 is a backroad drive to napa from sacramento...very long stretches of nice tight curves...the M6 GC handled like a dream...my wife was holding on for dear life!! Luckily the road was not well traveled, mainly sport motorcycles...that seemed to be holding me up ; )!!!
Pretty much put my C63 to shame!

Beautiful GC! The M6GC is the best looking sedan on the road IMO.

We just got our M6 last week, and were actually looking at a few C63 507 coupes as well. Glad to hear you are really enjoying your M6 over the C63. I have wanted to own one with the M156 for years but haven't been able to get what I thought was a good deal on one.

Congrats! My 2016 M6 GC has been in the body shop for a few weeks getting everything fixed from a low-speed bumper bash. They gave me a new white 535 sedan for a loaner, and it's polite of them to do so -- but it will feel like getting my M6 new all over again once I finally get back in it!

Same for me...wanted one since they first came out years ago! It finally became a reality!!! So pleased.

Congratulations! It's a wonderful car all around.
