BMW M6 specs

BMW V10 M6.

Did this car even have a Mercedes-Benz competitor at the time? AFAIK, the CLK55 and CLK63 AMG were officially classed as M3 competitors. The CLS55 and CLS63 were four-door cars, so that's a no. The CL and SL would have been 8-series and Z8 competitors if those were still in production; with that being said, in terms of both performance and handling, the M6 is closer to a CL65 or SL65 than to any of the other Mercedes-Benzes (despite packing an on-paper horsepower number on the level of 600 Biturbo 5.5-liter, 55 AMG Kompressor 5.4-liter, and 63 AMG 6.2-liter).

I have photos from this magazine issue but there is no information about length of lap. But Auto Bild Sportscars always use full lap configuration (20.8 km).

Nordschleife Full Lap 8:07.76 by Auto Bild Sportcars

Please, fix magazine link. And yeah, this is time for a full lap.

Nordschleife short is bit faster, around 5-10 seconds.

The only series-production Mercedes that could REAAALLLYY outrun the M6 was the SLR McLaren.

There were plenty of AMGs and 600s that could match or even "beat" the M6, but only on a prepped dragstrip and with much more focus on comfort. With the exception of some ultra-limited homologation specials, AMG wasn't a track- or sport-focused division back then like it is now. ///M, however...

Probably the most Italian car BMW ever made. LOL

0-130 km/h: 6.7 s

This car when you have not head up and all elektronica down and when the motor is good and good tires , than you need under 11.8 seconds to 200 !!! And to 100 kph in 3.9 sek!!!!!! I see good m6 e63 and bad m6 they need 4.5 sek to 100!!

"The M6 is a brilliant car."

That is correct!

The M6 is a brilliant car.

brilliant car as i own one myself.RECOMEND TO ANYONE.

I'm a doofus and the old m6 looks way better,it rocks.

I'm the biggest idiot in the world and I agree because the whole world said.[img][/img]

BMW m6 is a brilliant car I've got one.

according to the factory, the m6 will be able to do 0-100kph in 4.6 seconds...

I dont get it, why the topspeed is 189.1 mph???? Standard M6 goes 250km/h.

Its fair if fastestlaps change Audi RS6 topspeed too. Standard RS6 topspeed is 250km/h, 280km/h and special RS6 plus edition hits 303km/h.

As long as the back looks better, it will be better looking than the old M6.

Next BMW M6, damn it looks better than this one, personally i never liked it very much, but now i do ;)

"12.8"is true according to Sport auto 07/2006 ,in the comparison with Viper SRT 10 and Gallardo.

because this 12.8s is not true.

It is.
It was done by Sport Auto.
AMS recorded 13,0 s.

@Bmw ! because this 12.8s is not true.

Topspeed 189.1 mph? M6 is limit 250km/h. Or whitout limit over 320km/h.

When Sportauto tested the M6,it was really strange, because it was faster than the Gallardo, and Dodge Viper SRT-10(Straight Line).
But Georg said that it used a really good tires for the test.And that's the reason why

the bmw need 12.8 sec 0-200kmh
and the audi rs6 need 12.9 sec 0-200kmh
why is the audi faster at all videos that i see!

BMW expert

there is a fundamental different between real speed and speedclock speed...
we post here real speed not speedclock fantasy numbers..
As the guy with the Kelleners modified M6 reaching realGPS clocked 332km/h ..his speedclock showed 353km/h
A M6 with 330km/h on the speedclock is most likely ~20-25km/h slower real speed that would be factory claimed 305km/h... :)

@Georg

Than "top speed" should be 305kph. There's a lot of stock M6s capable of doing (at least) 305kph.

@DeDe

On Nardo car is constantly turning, so the top speed is slightly less, than it would be in straight line. My guess is 200mph+...

@BMWexpert
Claiming and the reality are usually not the same.
