Cool MotoGP BMW M6 Coupe Safety Car Debuts at M Festival This Weekend

BIMMERPOST NEWS
MotoGP BMW M6 Coupe Safety Car Debuts at M Festival This Weekend
23
COMMENTS

The all new 2013 M6 coupe (F13) will take on safety car duties for MotoGP this season, becoming the latest BMW M model to do so after the M5 and 1M Safety Cars.

The MotoGP M6 safety car will debut at the 24 Hour Nurburgring race this weekend and will lead the M Festival M Corso parade event.

The first half of the MotoGP race season will continue seeing the use of the F10 M5 and 1M safety cars, but the F13 M6 coupe safety car will replace the 1M halfway through the race season. Expect the M6 safety car to receive similar modifications as the M5 and 1M - siren, Akrapovic exhaust system (whose name is seen on the M6 below) and aerodynamic enhancements (front carbon fiber spoiler, high rear wing, M Performance black kidney grilles, side gills, and mirrors, and dark grey / gunmetal wheels. For stopping power, the M6 safety car will utilize the factory carbon ceramic brakes (seen in gold below).

More details and photos to come... for now here's a teaser.

I'm a little disappointed if this is all the M announcements for M Festival. Still wish I could go and be there.

I too am curious about the wing at the back. From that angle it looks like it's the same or very similar to the M3 GTS? Regardless it looks amazing!
