M6 is gone... King is here :D
The lease for M6 was up and it's time for new baby... She is an Austin Yellow M4 Coupe with Manual Transmission and Competition Package... Not as luxury, comfortable and powerful as M6 but a fun car
Manual transmission on this car is fantastic and due to longer gearing (especially first gear), the launch is more manageable than DCT...

These 20" rims look nicer than the other M3/M4 rims IMO... I would replace the 285 rear tires by 295 later on.

I never hated M4 or any other cars especially with sporty taste. Car has been my hobby for aover 3 decades. I recall the first time I stole my dad's car I was only 12 years old
No I never hated M4 but I always said F1x M5/M6 are faster than M3/M4 (KING) ... and still say BUT this guy is Manual

Next M6 should be a blast according to rumours. It's supposed to be much lighter than the current 5-derived chassis. Beware, u might love this current more nimble chassis too much to wanna change!

The M4 is a fun car to drive, but BMW failed on the sound so it just grew on me over time. It's nicer with the top down! The last option on my list to purchase will always be the radio, and soft door closing to me are just more things to break unless I'm driving a cushy S CLASS or 7 series.

I drove the car about 500 miles all the way from SoCal to Bay area in North. It's a real fun car especially with the manual transmission...Did I miss the M6? Ofcourse I did... Did I regret? Noway...I was with that F13 body since September 2011 (two 650i and one M6) and it was time to change... KING is a good replacement for now IMO...

Haha... But seriously I asked CA about M8. He had no idea but he said BMW is working on 8 series as a concept car for now!
