Here's a car we rarely see—the BMW M6. That makes sense since BMW stopped making it about five years ago. Still, this model is just as exciting today as it was back then. And to be honest, it has aged well.
If you want to buy a clean M6 today, expect to pay about the same as a brand-new BMW 3 Series. There are lots of options out there in many different conditions. Some are stock, while others have been customized or tuned. Remember, the second-gen M6 was available in three body styles: Coupe, Convertible, and Gran Coupe. That’s different from the first generation, which only came in the first two styles.
V8 Power and Performance
The BMW M6 is a real grand touring car with serious power. Under the hood, it has a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 engine. In standard form, it makes 567 horsepower (575 ps/423 kW) and 502 lb-ft (680 Nm) of torque. The Competition version bumps up to 592 hp (600 ps/441 kW) and 516 lb-ft (700 Nm) of torque. That version hits 62 mph (100 kph) in just 3.8 seconds. It can reach a top speed of 155 mph (250 kph) or a bit more with the M Driver's Package.
Why Talk About the M6 Now?
You might wonder why we're talking about a car that ended production years ago, especially now that we have the BMW M8, which is faster and more modern. Well, Prior Design gave us a great reminder of how awesome the M6 still is. They shared photos of a custom version on social media recently.
It's labeled as a 6 Series, but the M logos, quad exhaust tips, and other small details make it clear—this is the powerful M6, not just a regular 6 Series.
Widebody Style and Custom Features
This car really stands out thanks to its widebody kit. The fenders are much wider, and with a special wrap and a few upgrades, it could easily pass as a race car to most people. We especially love the new front, sides, and rear details. The vented hood looks great too. It also sits lower to the ground thanks to a custom suspension and rides on a set of unique alloy wheels.
Clean Outside, Classic Inside
The owner chose a gray paint job with black accents. Inside, the car keeps its original brown interior, which still looks good today. This M6 is the kind of car that true enthusiasts dream about. It might not beat today’s newest sports cars in every way, but it’s still a head-turner. And with some smart tuning, that V8 engine can still surprise even modern supercars.
