Found a replacement for my M6
My M affair lasted since 2012 up until two months ago. I've gone through 2013 X5M, 2014 M6GC and 2015 M4. All great, great, awesome cars!
I appreciate all of the owners members of the forum for their advice, expertise and comradery. BMW will always have a special place in my heart, and to be fair to the brand my wife owns a 2017 X5 edrive. So I haven't abandoned BMW. But I was finally able to get into my dream car in June. A Father's Day present to myself - 2017 991.2 Turbo S. Some pics below it getting ceramic pro coating.

Power, handling, brakes, acceleration are on a completely different level in a Turbo S. Which is really not surprising considering the hp difference. 911 feels glued to the road with telepathic steering. Interior quality is also better in a 911. Burmester sound system is better than B&O of the M6 (and my wife's X5). M4 in itself is a great car and I really enjoyed it, but, honestly, can't compare to the 911.

Turbo interior is definitely nicer, but it is still a bit lackluster in the luxury department. I wouldn't say it's better than the M6 full leather interior. Every sound system option sucks in M6. I don't really listen to music in this car anyway. I try to focus on my backfire farts. |

Wow you did it! They said every true car guy will get a 911, just when!
I’m in a similar boat, driving M since 2012, always want a 911 but haven’t pull the trigger yet, but recently I find myself reading more and more 911 model reviews, and researching on prices ... But I wouldn’t jump on a Turbo S right away, because there isn’t anymore ladders to climb except going true exotic cars which isn’t best all around cars. Enjoy your new ride! Tells us more about your driving experiences! |

Good luck in your search of a perfect 911. For me, it was a natural progression from the M family.

I'm about to add a base Panamera to my fleet, but this thing is expensive..
I have been eyeing the new Panamera since a year ago, but now at this price I wonder if I should look into getting a base 911.. 101K MSRP Panamera, volcano grey with red interior 7K drive off 1400 a month including tax, wheel/tire protection and 20k maintenance. |

Just did the Porsche experience 1.5 hours in Atlanta Turbo and GT3 and the are way better machines than M5 and M6 but not as comfy daily drivers or offer same amenities but more driver cars for sure!
That 2.5 secaunch a d the Slalom were heavenly GT3 sounded crazy hooligan Enjoy |
