2008 BMW M6 qualifies, in anybody's book, as a super-car for a variety of
reasons. This sleek two-door coupe or convertible boasts an under-five-second
0-60 mph sprint with its 500 hp 5.0 Liter V10. With its long and lean exterior
styling and luxurious leather interior, the M6 stimulates all of the senses.
With an M.S.R.P. of $99,300 to $105,100 for the M6 coupe and convertible
respectively, BMW has gone to extraordinary lengths to enhance performance. By
using aluminum in the front construction, carbon fiber reinforcement, and
compound materials in its roof, the M6 is exceptionally light and stable without
sacrificing the integrity of its crumple zones or cabin rigidity. Another
feature that lends itself to performance is the naturally aspirated V10 engine,
whose efficiency can be best summed up with the spec: 100hp per liter of
displacement.
The exterior of the M6, although largely unchanged for 2008, has been modified
more for the sake of performance than appearances, with larger air dams to
direct larger volumes of air to the engine. You get the impression that the M6
likes breathing hard by the sound it makes at high RPM.
Breath a sigh of contentment knowing that the 2008 M6 has your back, with safety
features that the shuttle crew would envy. Eight external sensors help you park
the M6 without any worries. A head protection system inflates airbags that are
positioned to protect passengers from incursions on side impact. Keeping you
steady on the road in the event of slippery pavement or other tricky situations
is the job of BMW's Dynamic Control System, which activates countermeasures to
keep wheels from skidding out of control. Experiencing the luxury, beauty,
performance, and safety of the 2008 BMW M6 will often give you cause to breath a
sigh of contentment, or to catch your breath.
