Do I really need the Comp Pack? Or...
So I test drove an M6GC with the Comp Pack a week or so ago, loved it. Steering feels amazing and the power is insane, almost scary lol.
I was thinking of getting an M6GC as the next car, but I had a question for you M6 experts. If I'm going to be replacing the exhaust, lowering the car on KW sleeve kit, putting new wheels on and a BMS tune, do I really need to get the Comp. Pack? Or will the mods take care and improve the feel either way? Please let me know guys. Thanks.

I have non-CP M6, but as far as I know the Competition Package is not just about suspension and wheels and exhaust. here is the thread about all specs:

The reason I ask is, there is a beautiful 2014 M6GC with all the options i want besides the CP, and I can get it for $20K less than a new M6GC with the CP. So I was wondering if the $20K price gap is really worth it.

Have you personally driven both non-CP and CP? Is the difference really all that much?

Yeah I have. There's a big difference in the steering feel that I could notice right away. The Non-CP with the steering in Sport Plus felt like a work out at times. Not a deal breaker though by any means, still an awesome car to drive. The steering in the CP is just less weighty, better tuned in, more direct.

Also, on the topic of steering. I don't like driving the car in anything but comfort mode (I drive everything else on Sport Plus w/ Traction Control off). When you bump the steering to Sport or Sport Plus it just seems so damn tight -- I don't quite understand the concept of it. Brian Last edited by bigbrian; 06-18-2014 at 09:36 PM.. |

I have an M6GC with comp package
I drove both and there is a big difference It's an inch lower And makes it look slicker, specific 20" wheels, 20% stiffer suspension and handling is much tighter Almost like go kart It really just looks and feels different Not to mention black exhaust tips And Exhaust note is different and more explosive |

It's a 20% more direct steering ratio no matter what mode it is in . Also different bushings in the steering system and upgraded front swaybars . All of these changes result in a more direct steering with much better feel on center and initial turn in . Night and day difference between the two .
