Test drove this today for a mate.
 
A good mate of mine ordered an M6 the other week and collected it this morning.
He drove it in "normal" mode and the power shocked him, so he came around my place & asked me to give it some in the "M" mode which apparently produces a further 100 BHp taking it from 400 to 500.

V10 engine and all the electronic gismos on the planet.

I gave it a hammering as requested with him hanging on for dear life beside me lol..........he's funny.

What did you think of it?

I'm not sure I like the look of that to be honest.

BMW's are looking more like Mercs all the time.

Very nice mate. I work for BMW and i drive these cars all the time and so i know how much fun they are. M mode really does make a big difference.

darth maul 26-05-2010 06:13 PM

we should have a S mode on the scoobs

Ewww....not liking the colour :doubledown:

Skullfudge 26-05-2010 07:55 PM

Well, it was ok but nothing mad.

I gave it the biggen in normal mode first to see how it felt then switched on the M mode.
The whole behavior of the car changed, the V10 sounded more like a Viper in M mode and pulled ok.

Did not find out it's full potential as the passenger was doing Lassie impressions in the passenger seat & started yelling at me to stop, so I did.

Brakes were stinking when we got out.
