M6 Reps look nicer than M6 Reals? Ha

Vudoo4u2 · 02-17-2008, 03:31 AM

So I was at the autoshow here in chicago today and couldnt help but try to mentally make a comparison of the wheels on the actual M6 at the show, or the m6 reps I have sitting in my room (yes...in my room...)

I feel like the finish on the reps/the gunmetal coloration is much nicer looking on the reps?

Maybe I'm just losing my mind, I have been sitting at my desk pressing the gas pedal that came with my aluminum pedal pad set...

Anyone else feel this way?

My M6 reps are on their way so good to hear. I don't have my car yet either so I've been sitting at my desk playing with my shifter all day...

Ive got my ebrake handle on the right side of my keyboard, my shifter next to my mouse, and my pedals laid out under my desk, m6 rep laying on the ground behind me with my tpms sensors...sickness? maybe

Yes the reps are alot nicer than the real M6's. Also the real M6's don't fit our cars so we have no choice.

The OEM M6 wheels have deeper concavity which i love. Kudos if the finish is better, but I prefer the concavity.

That pretty cool to hear !

The concavity difference has to do with the offset of the M6 which is a lot wider.
