New owner of an M6!

Axekick · 06-24-2016, 08:51 AM

Hi, folks! I just registered here and should be picking up my (new to me) M6 after the weekend! I would love any tips or advice that you all would want to share with me about issues to look for with the car.... maybe some ideas for less expensive cosmetic or performance upgrades?

I'll be pouring through this forum now that I'm a new member. If anyone is in Mass or around the area, I'd love to hear about meet-ups etc too!

2007 M6 Convertible, 20k miles Black/tan

Congrats! please post some pics. What vehicle are you coming from?

Axekick · 06-24-2016, 04:41 PM

Well I sold my G35 Coupe last summer and have been driving my 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee 5.9L for the past year.... but for the last few months, I've been using just my work car... a 2008 Nissan Versa, with crank windows. This M6 is going to feel like even more of a monster after the Versa!

Love the monster.
Post pics, congrats, and drive it in good health

I picked up the M6 last week and have been driving it constantly.... so I haven't been posting! Who can blame me.

This is an awesome car! You guys have great taste (and apparently so do I)!

I'll post some pics asap, as well as probably some noob questions as well.

OP, Congrats but we haven't seen any pics yet!

The only reason must be because you have either:

1. Loved the M6 so much you are driving across the Country.
2. Been thrown in jail testing the top speed governor.

Cheers,
Chris
