given the price of the e60m6 and the new m6 --70k is about right to my eyes.

i honestly, with all of my options before me, wouldn't buy one at all.

i'd be contrarian and get the new CTS-V. like FC wrote, if it's gonna be a pig, might as well have torque, real brakes etc --and it's cheaper. LOL.

It had every single option except for a hole in the roof. Grand total was $70K and change.
They also had a $15K markup on it. (Whatever)

Update: It sold with full dealer markup.

Heh, just looking through old M3 sedan threads. Funny how people's opinion change over the years.

I still won't track this car. 3600 with no brakes is a disaster waiting to happen at Button Willow in August. I am interested to hear Jeff's track report after the upcoming summer track season though. Since if you don't blue the rotors or ash the pads dealers have to replace them for free.

already posted track updates, stock brakes pads, just fresh super blue brake fluid

1 day C group at Laguna Seca, minor brake fade at the end of the day
2 day A group at Buttonwillow, no brake issues
2 day A group at Chuckwalla, no brake issues, tied in 2nd place for best lap in A group

about to sign up for Fontucky, CA speedway, this will be a test of the brakes

The July, August, September hot track days will be the ones to beat. I remember one time that the track temp got up to 115! Don't remember if you were there, I think you were...

last year, it was hot. My sign-off instructor put his e92 m3 into limp mode but he left on the A/C.

All times are GMT -4. The time now is 01:46 AM.
