Thoughts on this deal on new M6 GC?
Hey folks I am in the market for a new daily and have been looking at quite a few cars: M3, M5, C63S, E63S, RS7. Currently my wife and I share a 2015 X5 35d and 2012 A6 3.0T as daily drivers. The A6 has been great, but I want something with more power and sound than the A6. Moreover, the warranty on the A6 is ending in about four months.
Being that 2016 is almost here, I have been searching nationwide to see what all leftover 2015 cars are out there as from my past experience great deals can be had if a dealer is willing. The M6 GC wasn't on the top of my list as I figured a M5 or E63S would be more practical, but I have found a new leftover 2015 M6 GC with executive package, driver assist plus package for $26k off MSRP. It doesn't have the competition package, which is a bit of a bummer, but to me the deal seems very good. I just wanted to see what other members, who likely have more experience when it comes to dealing with M6 pricing, think of this deal. Also, can one expect the resale of the M6 GC to be on par, worse, or better than a comparable M5? Feedback much appreciated. Thanks!

Small world comment was for OP. I had a long discussion with him long time ago when he was bashing on M6 and now I see he is interested on M6

Ha that's because you were knocking on my R8 and stating how the M6 is better than my R8 V10. Plus I recall you and another member were stating I can't "handle" the power of a M5/M6 due to its massive torque. In any case, yes that was some time ago. But no matter how much time has passed the R8 V10 is still king in my garage!

BTW, how about you actually post some thoughts on what my original post asked about instead of taking this thread off topic?

Thanks for the feedback. I have actually never leased a car before and all the various numbers and factors frankly make me a bit hesitant to lease as I'm not sure whether the lease deal would be good or not. What would be considered a good lease deal given the negotiated price of the car is 99,600? And for that price would you still shy away from purchasing?

Ok my friend let me elaborate something here:

There is a report of 7:55 for M5 and hopefully you agree M6 is slightly faster than M5 so I believe it's something about 7:50-7:55... And if you are talking about the real world, you can watch the following youtubes video where Randy Pobst drove both R8 V10+ and M6 the same day 2013 best driver's car Audi R8 V10+ 2013 best driver's car BMW M6 The result shows over the Laguna Seca raceway, R8 V10+ ran 1:38.7 and M6 ran 1:40.5 .... I don't call 1.8 second difference "a lot better lap time" ... There are many other lap time comparisons show the difference, but overall yes there is no doubt R8 V10+ is faster than M6 on racetrack... it's meant to be right? but the question is with 40-50k difference it worth? that's the question must be answered by individuals....

M6 GC is an amazing machine, it has a look, comfort, power and practicality that you can not find in this hoarse power category. And the look! When you valet the car, It's gonna stay in front of the hotel, not in the parking garage. There are lots of great Audis and porches and mercs are roaming on the streets, but m6gc is a rather a unique car. Drive characteristics are way different from m5, I found the m5 rather numb.
I used the GC for short and long trips, and my kids found the back seats rather comfortable. I think m6gc is the best of two worlds. |
