Performance in a straight line amazing, keeps pulling and the noise is great. After 70 they really open up.

 

Handling on fast road use is good, but on a track day the weight can be felt only letting it step out speed it up through the bends. Brakes are amazing though, seriously good. Didnt get any fade at the ring and i was trying hard.

 

Maintenance is good as all bmw's they are reliable. Serviceing is every 12k and is more being an M car. We have had no issues in the 2years hes had it.

 

Rear tyres are dear though. Will do about 250-280 miles when cruising on a tank, about 120 when not!

 

Kids in the back easily and small adults if you go forward with the chair. Im 5'9 and can sit in the back but head touches the roof.

 

any more fire away.

Chris, thanks man. Appreciate the info, yeah I'm 6'5" so I'll stay in the front :)

 

Edge, yepp been sniffing around the M5 as well, but love the 2 door M6. Although 4 doors would be a lot more practical, i want the M6 :)

 

P.S I will not do trackdays.
