If you have these feelings then you are very right to pass. It is a pretty car but honestly, after all the hype they don't excite me much either. My buddy has that gorgeous Superman SMB one and it is hot but it is more his color choices than the actual styling of the car for me. His coupe is far more sick. Of course, this is just my opinion.

Nevertheless, if it doesn't excite you then don't blow your money on something that you won't be thrilled to drive.

Alot of car for even more money--- money is relative so get what you want, can afford, and can tolerate in negative equity (if you lease or buy and trade out early).

M6's are soft as goose shit when it comes to market value... a 145k M6 even moreso.

The the OP you have typed a few times where I have read hesistation--- I think this has answered your question.

Your description is both funny and accurate lol.

OP that's some serious coin, hold out for something you don't need to convince yourself that you like.

M6GC production began in April before the touchpad was available. They did a mid-cycle revision for September production so I think touchpad will be on post-September M6GC. Wdimagineer confirmed his M6GC build has touchpad.

The M5 got it from July.

I was under the impression that ALL the F06/F10/F12/F13 cars would be receiving the iDrive Touchpad starting with July 2013 production.

Why does the GC M6 get a carbon roof and the m5 doesn't????

the grancoupe f07 chassis is heavier than the f10 chassis. the car was heavier and slower than the m5. they had to add the carbon roof to bring down the weight. now its 12lbs heavier than the M5 so roughly the same.

I was told that 6-series won't get touchpad in this year. Maybe next year.

But it must be simple way to replace non touch knob for touch knob I think
