It *IS* my everyday car
matomizer, 06/14/2011
2007 BMW M6 2dr Coupe (5.0L 10cyl 7AM)
This is my everyday car, except for my wife's minivan which I don't really drive.
I love love love this car.
I bought it used a year and a half ago and it has never ceased to amaze me every time I get behind the wheel.
I don't mind the smg.
I just shift it how I want anyway and go back and forth between auto and manual.
I played around with the shift points until I just finally left it … on default.
I love being able to just BE where I want to be in traffic without thinking.
BMW was faithful to the spirit of man when they built this car.

Tranny issues that cannot be resolved!

2008 BMW M6 2dr Coupe (5.0L 10cyl 7AM)
Do not buy this car unless you have a written warranty on all aspects of the SMG transmission. The dealer will sell you this car as an automatic with a 3rd party warranty, but when it fails, and it will, the 3rd party says that it is a manual transmission with normal wear and tear.... $15000 later you will still have a car that doesn't work! Anyone need any M6 parts??

2007 BMW M6 2dr Coupe (5.0L 10cyl 7AM)
I ordered this vehicle new in 2007. The car is everything I expected. My M6 averages 24.4 mpg highway at 80 mph. Much better the the 4.4 X5 Sport that gets 18.4 highway. The M6 has the styling, power and performance that is advertised. I would recommend the vehicle.

What an AWESOME car!!

2007 BMW M6 2dr Convertible (5.0L 10cyl 7AM)
I purchased my 2007 BMW M6 Convertible about 10 months ago. I decided to hold off on submitting my review until now because I like to form a close relationship with my vehicle before singing its accolades. Well, all I can say is that this car has exceeded all my expectations. It is simply the best car I have ever owned, bar none. The car is an absolute blast to drive. For the first time, … I actually look forward to getting up in the morning to drive the 20 miles to my office. Same applies to my drive home from work. The V10 engine is sublime. The handling is confidence-inspiring. The build quality is second to none. As far as the iDrive and SMG are concerned, I love them both.
