Ok Let me make it clear for you.
First of all my comment was on your quote:

Peace out.

edit: I want to be clear - I'm talking 0-60 and qtr mile here and when "I" refer to "from a roll" I am talking from 5mph. The video you posted shows the cars going from 40+. The M5/M6 cars are incredible at this speed and just pull like crazy (my E60 M5 was a monster there as well - but completely wimpy off the line). So ... The M4 is a faster car from a standstill and/or 5mph. But the additional power of the M5/M6 will take over at high speed. I'm not questioning this.
Quote:
Here is the deal. When you post something that I feel is incorrect, I will point this out and back it up with facts (not youtube videos). I'm not doing it to get into an argument, I just want to make sure others reading the board don't take your statements for fact (the ones that I consider incorrect).
Before pointing something out that you feel it's in correct please go and do some research and then come back and quote it!

Quote:
BTW, I'm not sure of the true definition of "fastest" (I googled it and there are lots of meanings) - but I think many people would say it is the car that can go "faster". In this case, once again, the B6 is "faster" than the M6 as it will go 198MPH vs. the 155MPH (and yes, I get it that the M6 is limited, but the fact is, the way the car comes from the factory, the M6 is "slower" than the B6.)
Now you are changing your words. Originally you used the term of "fastest" regarding to 0-60 here:

Of course personal preference on everything. So maybe you meant to say "to "me" the M6 is the most beautiful and fastest"
Quote:

I get that you love your M6 and you consider it the best car in the world. I also love the M6 and heck if it came with a sunroof on the GC, I might have even considered one (in spite of not having AWD which I really really like here in Chicago).
I never claimed and will never claim my "M6 is the best car in the world" but I claim the M6 is the best car you can buy with this money if you are looking for both luxury and sport car.

Quote:
But at the end of the day, when you make comments like "my M6 destroys M4 any where any time in straight line", I'm going to call you on it. However, I'm not going to act in an immature way and thus I won't call you names
Yes I did say that and I say it again and stand behind my word. You also ignored all of the actual real world numbers I provided for you in that thread even the C&D results that you mentioned as reliable source and still claiming the M4 is beating M6 in straight line ... look at this:

Rolling 5-60 : 4.0 vs 4.2


I don't see anywhere M4 can beat M6 based on your C&D referral...
So please stop trolling and cut the sarcasm... I think you are the one who need somebody help you ...

Let me correct you again! The video was old generation of M6 and my intention was not the 1/4 mile of that car! we are comparing the current generation right? for your information a tuned M6 (current generation) can go 1/4 mile in 10.7 second @ 128 mph

Another example of immature quote! Are we talking about capability of cars or the picture of cars??? Fxx M6 (current generation) is as fast as 212 mph (347 km/h) IF the speed limiter is removed! Again this car has enough power to reach that number. You can put a grandma behind the wheel of M6 and race it with BMW 328 and then claim the 328 is "faster" watch this:

No dual clutch and a heavy AWD setup on the B6 = deal-breaker.

Then why post the video? The B6 in that video is a RWD coupe not the AWD GC we are talking about?

Their test results are in the lower right corner. (for everyone else bored with this back and forth)

M6 Gran Coupe
C/D TEST RESULTS:
Zero to 60 mph: 3.7 sec
Zero to 100 mph: 8.0 sec
Zero to 130 mph: 13.0 sec
Rolling start, 5-60 mph: 4.0 sec
Top gear, 30-50 mph: 2.1 sec
Top gear, 50-70 mph: 2.8 sec
Standing ¼-mile: 11.9 sec @ 124 mph
Top speed (governor limited): 160 mph
Braking, 70-0 mph: 168 ft
Roadholding, 300-ft-dia skidpad: 0.92 g

M4 DCT
Zero to 60 mph: 3.7 sec
Zero to 100 mph: 8.5 secc
Zero to 130 mph: 14.5 sec
Zero to 160 mph: 25.7 sec
Rolling start, 5-60 mph: 4.7 sec
Top gear, 30-50 mph: 2.2 sec
Top gear, 50-70 mph: 2.7 sec
Standing ¼-mile: 12.0 sec @ 119 mph
Top speed (governor limited): 163 mph
Braking, 70-0 mph: 150 ft
Roadholding, 300-ft-dia skidpad: 1.00 g

So if I'm pointing to actual websites and not showing homemade youtube videos, how exactly is that immature? In short, looking at the above numbers how exactly does your car crush the M4 in a straight line?

The significantly higher (yes, 5 mph at a 1/4 mile is substantial) trap speed indicates a propensity for the M6 to further pull away from the M4 after the 1/4 miles culminates.

Let me say upfront that the B6, M6 and M6 GC are all great cars and I don't have a dog in the fight. I'm guessing weight will play a major factor as to which one is faster. The M6 is approximately 525 lbs less than the B6, while the M6 GC is approximately 350 less than the B6. The weight difference will affect both speed in a drag race and handling overall.

Having said all of that, the Audi RS7 is substantially faster off the line and for a quarter mile than the M6 GC. Does that mean another AWD tuned monster like the B6 would beat another monster, the M6 2-door coupe, in drag race? Who knows. The RS7 is 350 lbs lighter and has 20 more HP than the B6, but the B6 has slightly more lbs/ft of torque (24) than the RS7. Since M6 coupe is lighter than RS7 and has the same HP, but no AWD, it seems that it would be an interesting drag race b/w a B6 and M6 coupe. Here is a video of the RS7 vs. M6 GC for those of you who haven't seen this race.

I didn't watch the video... But if it's the one I'm thinking of.. It is a bit biased toward the RS7 due to the wet conditions... I'd like to see that race/test done with favorable road conditions..

Yeah, I know the one you're talking about and it's not that one. I agree, the one with the wet pavement isn't really fair for a RWD car. I tried to post the video again. Here is the link:

Dude, let's wrap up this conversation since it's getting boring and turning to typical immature M3 forum argument. Our debate started from here when I claimed my M6 destroys M4 anywhere anytime in straight line and obviously I am driving M6 Coupe right?:

The last sentence was for M3/M4 guys LOL
Then your M6 must be modified? Because a stock M6 does not destroy a M4 in a straight line (and certainly can't run with it in the curves).
Then I posted different Motor Trend videos (not home made) to prove that M4 is not even as fast as M5 in 0-60 (3.9 for M4 and 3.7 for M5). You denied all of those videos and referred to C&D.

I did not find any C&D report for M6 coupe but I found the report comparing M4 to 911 and M6GC to RS7 and E63AMG and posted over there. Those info are extracted from C&D website (and not home made website BTW)

I don't see anywhere in this info proves that M4 is faster than M6 in straight line! even in 5-60 rolling that you were concerned. Even if we accept these numbers and the fact that My M6 Coupe is lighter than M6GC (100-200 lb based on BMWNA website) then there is no specific result that M4 can be faster than M6... or lets say this way: There is no specific result that proves M6 Coupe is not faster than M4 or let's say this way: Everything shows that M6 Coupe is faster than M4 in straight line right?

Then let's go back to this thread. Alpina B6! I posted different videos and none of them are home made! TFL (post#16) or Dragtime (post#17) are well-known websites and are not my close friends ; however you are right. That was B6 coupe and not B6GC. I stand corrected. Post #24 is PPPerformance website you can find here if you believe it's home made:
https://www.facebook.com/PPPerformance?fref=photo

Bottom line, I'm not gonna argue with you. The point that I was trying to make is that M6 is underrated by BMW. There are tons of evidences all over the place in this forum or internet that S63TU engine (M5/M6) is underrated by BMW and that's because BMW is not interested to participate in horse power war with this German masterpiece engine. Mercedes-Benz AMG does the same thing! All of their V8 engines (except C63) generate much more than 600HP but rated to 577 HP for S model and 550 HP for non S model. The actual power generated by S63tu is over 600 HP and the torque is over 550 lb-ft.

1. There are Dyno results (tons of them can be found in youtube) show about 520-540 HP at wheel which is reflected to over 600 at crank!
2. Dinan as a reliable and trustable tuner has measured the 618HP and 576 lb-ft of torque. You can double check it here: http://dinancars.com/product/d440-16...ries&mid=1172/
And please don’t say this is BS since Dinan performed the same test for 650i and measured 446 HP/510 lb-ft of torque which is almost what BMW claims for 650i (445/480) here :
http://dinancars.com/product/d440-16...ries&mid=1179/
3. Chicago based IND another well-known tuner measured 527 RWHP on F10 M5. You can see the result and read the article here:
http://www.bmwblog.com/2012/09/10/dy...ated-527-rwhp/
4. Using the simple online calculator with respect to C&D results of ¼ mile 11.9 @ 124 mph for M6GC ( the info you posted not mine) with estimated 4600lb weight (Car + Driver) proves the over 600 HP
http://www.dragtimes.com/horsepower-...power+Estimate

Hopefully you are convinced now, but if you still is not comfortable I can give you some information to do some research and calculation:

The acceleration can be calculated by this formula:
F - Fd -Frr= ma; where "m" is mass and "F" is force at wheels ( ie RWD or AWD). "Fd" is drag force and "Frr" is rolling resistance force can be calculated separately …I'm not gonna explain them here but can be searched:
Rolling Resistance Force : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_resistance
Drag Force: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag_(physics)
The Force at wheel can be calculated: F = TQ *gear ratio* axle ratio* (1-n) /wheel radial
Where ” n” is drivetrain loss and “TQ” is torque at crank.


You can find all data for calculation from these links:
M6GC: http://www.bmw.co.uk/en_GB/new-vehic...ical-data.html
B6GC: http://www.alpina-automobiles.com/en...81084e877033d9


Just keep in mind that today's AWD drivetrain loss is 15-20% and RWD drivetrain loss is 10-15%
And I would like to add that DCT is faster than ZF8 and there is one gear changing in 0-60 race. Let's say 100-150 ms time saving for M6 over B6 and you know in a 3.7 second race how important this time is!


Last thing is what you keep repeating about the info on BMW website. Not all information in any website is correct! Internet is a good source for information but not 100% reliable. For example the same page that shows 0-60 in 4.1 second:
http://www.bmwusa.com/Standard/Conte...fications.aspx
The BMWNA clearly mentions “Run-flat performance tire dimensions” … none of today’s M cars (M3/M4/M5/M6) are coming with Run Flat tires!

Same thing about acceleration. Maybe it's incorrect on purpose! or maybe it’s normal launch (no MDM or DSC OFF or Launch Control)… Just do a search and go to M5Post and ask people. 3.5-3.6 second with launch Control is so easy for M6 if you know how to drive this car... I highly recommend you to do yourself a favor (or maybe do me a favor to finish this silly conversation ) and get behind the wheel of an M6... go to freeway, put the car in S3, drive at 40 mph in second gear and then floor the gas to see how powerful this car is and how she pushes you back and sinks in the seat. then go to a wide open area or big parking lot when nobody else is there. Turn the DSC OFF and floor the gas. You will realize what I'm talking about. M6 is not 650i! They are just sharing the same body and almost the same interior. That's all....Nice but breathless discussion Goodluck!

Look, I don't know what to tell you - BMW, C&D, R&T, and I believe MT all have the M4 as fast as the M6 (0-60 with the qtr mile being a hair slower). In short, your car will not destroy a M4 anywhere, anytime in a straight line. You wrote the post, you turned it into the "typical immature M3 forum". I've given numerous reputable organizations, who actually test their cars with real equipment (not something stuck to the dashboard). You can keep googling all you like - you will not convince me or others.

Again wrong - it is the Audi S7. As a BMW owner, it pains me that this car beats up on the M lineup so bad and that it turns in 0-60 and qtr mile times that are just unbelievable for the HP and Torque it is rated at. Topping it all off, it costs considerably less than the M5/M6/M6GC group of cars.

Rolling start from 50mph. The M5 starts to pull away at about 9 seconds and has a car length at 12 seconds. Does anyone want to guess what speed that is at?

Let's see a standing start please

Now, something HAS been bothering me. I wrote this

"Again wrong - it is the Audi S7.

THAT was immature. I should have written
"Some would argue that the S7 is the best car you can buy for the money if you are looking for both sport and luxury". It has a 0-60 and qtr mile time that embarrasses cars costing $30K more. Others might argue the Tesla actually embarrasses both the S7 and M6. To each his own."

I really can't believe you guys have argued for 2 pages about this. M4 is a nice car.....but it's just a bit bigger M3 in my book and I don't think any of us buy our cars because they are the fastest for the money (or else we would all buy Civics and put $20k into them and they would be faster than anything). However, the M6 is in a different league.....it's close to supercar status.

The S7 is a nice car, too.....faster than the M6 GC and CLS63.....but jeez....A7's are SO boring. A7's are dime a dozen in Chicago. Despite the fact it's $30k less and faster.....I still didn't even consider the S7 when I was looking (and I just came from a CLS and was bored of it.....those haven't caught on like the previous CLS bodystyle).

First: M5 is most likely as heavy as M6GC and the same power and torque so basically very close to M6GC! 0-100 in 8 second for M6GC (and M5) while 8.5 second for M4 (or M3) based on the numbers you posted above! right?
0-130 in 13.0 vs 14.5 is another one...not enough?
where you see in this standing starts that M3/M4 is faster than M5?
Oh BTW, I'm impressed and shocked that you didn't call it "homemade video" LOL.

Second: This video is taken in Europe and over there people use the metric system (SI). So the rolling start is 50km/h (31 mph) and not 50 mph! After 9 seconds both cars can reach about 180-190 km/h! I don't know how you could recognize 1 car length from that view! (you have good eyes sir ); but obviously M5 must have reached 200 km/h at the time walked away! So what's your point?

Back to "M6 vs .."
Now after M4 and B6 it's Tesla's and S7's turn lol...
I think we will be ending up to bring all cars here until you find a good competitor for "M6" ... what's wrong with you with M6??? You have a 6er BMW which is a good car! why so much hate about M6??? Oh I know because it's a fast car
Ok let's see what you have for us.... S7! first of all it's AWD... "to me" deal breaker! 420 HP/ 406 lb-ft torque 0-60 in 4.5 second !!! curb weight 4500 lb... No thanks my car has a lot more power and torque and 250 lb lighter and "FASTER". Oh S7 is really ugly (this is subjective of course)....
I leave the link here since you believe in "none homemade links"
http://www.audiusa.com/models/audi-s7

and your friends in C&D made some reviews about 2016 S7!
http://www.caranddriver.com/audi/s7
450 HP/ 406 lb-ft of torque
0-60: 4.1 second
0-100: 9.7 second
1/4 mile : 12.4 second
How this car beats up on M lineup so bad????
based on your numbers (C&D M4/M6) it's slower than entire current M lineup
Furthermore, S7 is not even in M5/M6 Class...The M5/M6 competitor in Audi lineup is RS7

And in that link: Although Audi doesn’t use the "four-door coupe" nomenclature favored by some competitors, the S7 nevertheless butts heads with the BMW 650i xDrive Gran Coupe and the Mercedes-Benz CLS550

So maybe you need to compare S7 with your 650ixDrive GC "and not any M car"

And Tesla... let's compare Tesla to i8 since that's different category.
Currently we are talking about gasoline engine M cars
