Thoughts on the M6 GC competition

Hey guys ! What do you guys think about this M6 GC ?
I'm still trying to get used to the style of the GC but I think I could get used to it .
I'm about to order an M5 comp but this car is arriving this week.
The only thing is that Is throwing me off is this it's a competition pack car but just called the sales guys and he said it was order with the 343 wheels ;(
If anyone wants its still available at South bmw...

I like the build.... I like the 343's over the 601 for that car but first choice would be the 433's.

I dont get why the 601's are 10.5's and the 343's are 10's but on my F13 the 343's were 10.5's (rear)

Neil McRae · 08-27-2013, 02:38 PM

just check the head room in the GC - its very tight.

I would have loved if it came with the 433's.
Just called my dealer now and they are trying to find out if coming with the 433 or 601

I also don't get it ! I saw an euro bmw site yesterday and the 601's were shown to be the same width ... Confused

Very little going on there for now hehe

I'm not feeling alpine white for the 6GC. However the 6GC could possibly be the best looking bimmer since e46.
And get the 433M wheels, they're awesome.

It's a beautiful car. I would rather buy it in San Marino blue with Opal White.

Maybe next year once dealers realize demand is weak.

Beautiful and expensive hehe ! It arrives this Friday at the port and early next week at the dealer .
I will go see it and will post some pics ... But knowing myself I will end up just ordering the m5 exactly how I want

GOLFFRR · 08-28-2013, 07:40 AM

the M6 GC is my favorite BMW right now! I was looking at actually getting one for myself as well. Just something about that car that just does it!

Def agree the comp pkg wheels on the m5 are a little out there. not sure what BMW was going for with those design wise

positiveions · 08-28-2013, 07:59 AM

Congrats on the build. That car looks really good.

richard in NC · 08-28-2013, 11:13 AM

Alpine White looks good.

Alpine300zhp · 08-28-2013, 11:17 AM

OP...I would go for the M5 myself. I think the M6 GC is way overpriced even if it does look good. For the record, I love the 343 wheels and they will be on my m5 if I decide to go that route over the m4.

Tylerstar · 08-28-2013, 11:22 AM

Id take the LCI M5 over it. For looks and for price.

433s look very nice on the GC. You can always order them and sell your 343. $3500 approx.

Have you driven it? More cruiser than the M5.

Pass if it were me.

Yes ! Put around 20 miles in it and got a good comparison with the M5.
Yes it's definitely more of a cruiser than the M5 and looks very long but to be honest it feels small when you are in the cabin.
I'm still not convinced on the looks and have a feeling I could regret dropping $145k in this car . It would be my daily driver and will depreciate like crazy .
I think I'm gonna pass and order an M5 comp with carbon brakes ...
This M6gc is definitely a head turner
