Talking Just Picked up a 2017 M6 GC!

Hello All,

Just picked up an 2017 M6 GC.

Love the car so far - have some plans for some mods down the road!

Here are some obligatory pics:





Btw, I didn't do any donuts in that first screenshots - it's the vista point on Hwy. 9.

First thing I want to know is - who is considered the 'best' tuner for this car in the Bay Area?

I asked a shop in the south bay for installing a Valentine1 and they quoted me ~ $400 just for the install (I already have the V1) - that seems a bit... steep.

Any suggestions on good, reliable, and honest tuner shops for the M6 GC in the South Bay?

Thanks in advance.

Hope to learn and share a lot in this community!

Does it have the contrasting leather stripe in the roof? It looks like Tanzanite blue as well, absolutely the best colour!

Look over on the M5 forum. There is a recent discussion about the V1 hard wire. I made mine using an old telephone wire. Less than 5 minutes and scrap material.

Save the 400 for something else..
