New 2015 SG M6 *interior pics added*

I just couldn't wait at least another 9 months for a 2016 without the competition package, so on Sunday I picked up this loaded Singapore Grey (everything except the ceramic rotors). Black full leather, carbon fiber trim, etc...

Already programmed M1 and M2, radio presets, and fiddled around with the electronics. The old iPod isn't recognized, so I'll have to get a new MP3 player. Bluetooth streams music from the iPhone, but the sound isn't as dynamic as I'd hoped.

I ordered a Turner Motorsports race axle back exhaust with 4" black straight cut tips.

Waiting on a local shop to order a Vorsteiner rear diffuser and then shopping for some stock dimension wheels and getting it tinted.








My old E60:

Excellent specs. Highly recommend going with CQuartz or the like on that finish. Certain metallics really respond well to that glassy coating.

Congrats on the new addition!

Screw Bluetooth streaming. Connect through USB if you can. Better yet, if you have the option that allows you to use the BMW iphone cradle, get it. The ability to tap into the car antenna alone is worth it. Just be sure the techs don't bend the connector pins when they put it in (as happened to me by another dealer) and then tell you that Bluetooth streaming is the only way it works. When the cradle is installed correctly, you can access Pandora, etc. through ConnectedDrive with noticeably better sound quality than Bluetooth. You can also stream your music files from your iphone through the media menu in idrive. I suspect the latter also would be true by connecting your ipod via usb and using the media menu.

The Sakhir will get their attention first...the FSG will be OMG, that car has matte paint...and the SG will be meh, it's dark grey and the audio sounds like crap (until I figure out this whole MP3 thing)

Disagree about first and last
All three colors are kinda unique and get attention. I saw a space gray yesterday on my way in I5...it was like king of the road . M6 is a gorgeous car in any color period.

Picked up the Vorsteiner rear diffuser on Saturday...never expected it to weigh 1 pound-ish

Exhaust will be arriving today.

Wheels are being powdercoated.

Grill and black M badge will be in approx Wednesday.

Lojack and tint will be activated/applied on March 2nd.
