£33K off and 2.5% is quite tempting. Can I make man-maths work to make a NEW M6 cost similar to a 6 year old E63 at £25K???

Also amazes me people are buying M3/M4s when they can have an M6 for LESS.

Just who is offering this deal?.

Really? £799 a month on a near as damn it 100K car, is not cheap?

£33000 dealer deposit is mental. I might give BMW a call.

I paid £76600:00 fully specced.
Being built as we speak.
Recommend £110,000:00 + service pack and on the road.

How did you do that?

Is it lease, PCP or buying outright?

How did you get the price right down? "Give me your best price?" sort of thing or was it a struggle to get them to budge?

I'm considering going this route some time in the future.

I have bought the car cash, I played one off against the other till the price was lowest, simples.
One dealer out there will always want to make there margins , thats when they are prepared to give cars away to get big money from BMW.

Hmmm, the M6 does look and sound awesome. Is your the Gran Coupe with the Competition Pack by any chance?

Sure is, Alpine White and sakhir Orange Leather.

Nice spec

Edited to add I've got 24 months left on my F10 M5 and whilst I'm a while away for having to make decision I really don't know what I'm going to replace it with, it's such a fecking great all round car

Edited by HoHoHo on Friday 5th September 20:03

You must go M6 GC CP IMO, if you can buy one @ M5 money it's a great deal.
They really do go, ask Palmball.

HoHoHo said:

No faster than my M5 I assume?

I drove one before ordering and it was much better handing wise, and seemed to tackle corners way better, power wise not to sure, will let you know in a few weeks.
15 BHP does not seem a lot, but the torque curve is better.
Along with the centre of gravity being much lower.

Palmball said:

Yes, it's on PH and oscarjacobs.co.uk - and yes, of course it cheaper than a new one with equivalent spec! Spec'd to £120k, even with say £35k discount with Broadpseed you're looking at £85k new.

It's advertised low-mid £60k's.....sure, one can probably buy a brand new example for similar money but with no options, whereas but my old car has (amongst other items) competition pack, full individual leather, ceramic brakes and B&O audio. For the price, theres no other M6's that come's close to it for the spec....and it still wouldn't sell.

ETA - it also has the M Drivers pack, with the official certification from BMW. There'll be no other M6 in the UK with this factory option.

Not quite sure why I'm saying all this as it's not mine to sell anymore....must still be a touch attached to it!

Edited by Palmball on Saturday 6th September 00:04

If anyone is seriously looking for an M6, this would be my choice, If I did not have one on order I would by it.

Forgive me for not knowing the full detail of the M Drivers Pack, is it simply a speed limit de-restriction? I know you had the 155 mph restriction removed is this what it is?

On that point does the fact this car has done in excess of 180 mph (on the autobahn) have any UK warranty implications do you, or anyone, know?

Thanks

It has NO implications on driving to those speeds, thats what the "Drivers Pack" is for.
BMW germany did the alterations and certified them, warrantee unaffected.

I test drove an M6 on a "private track" and I still remember speaking to the person who just came out of the car saying he had hit 140mpg on a short straight and I honestly thought he was talking rubbish and was just trying to show off. I merely acknowledged it saying really I am not surprised being an M6.

It was my turn next and the think really is a time travel machine - they way it belts through the gears with such accuracy and the way it gathers speed is just unreal. The highest I hit was 160mph and that was not due to limitations of the car, I ran out of track. It is mind boggling fast but more importantly it felt it could do that speed with noooo problems what so ever, it was so planted so well composed and really a pleasure to drive at such speeds. I have been in some cars and I would be scared to do 100mph in them even though they are limited to 155mph.. I had to slow down at one point and coming back down to 60/70mph was really like doing 20mph.

Really is on my list of cars to get as soon as depn hits the used ones a bit one.

I true masterpiece. All round excellent car. Really was love at first sight.

I know what you mean, I just got an email saying my M6GC CP is built today.

A couple of weeks then it should be here.

IATM said:

Wow lucky you! very envious!
What spec did you get? Its ok, I seen it on page 2 - nice spec!) You HAVE to put some pics up when you get it so I can get my daily M6 fix - the mrs is starting to get worried I will cheat on her with an M6!

Edited by IATM on Monday 8th September 16:26

Yea will put up some pictures as and when, it's alpine white with the red leather, should look nice.

Most people who are in the market for an M6 would likely to be an enthusiast and on that basis I'm sure they would visit forums and scan the market, regardless of their age. There may be a few luddites out there, but at this end of the market people are far more savvy.

You are so right, I am an old git, but buy high end performance cars every year so far anyway, I play the dealers off against one another till I get the best price offered , then see if listers can match or beat it, they have so far come up trumps on thew last 6 new BMW cars I have bought.
I always get a great deal.

shadow1964 said:

I am another agreeing with this view.

I too am of the opinion the used M6 market has to fall a great deal further otherwise these will be hard to shift when you can buy a new car for not much more and in some cases cheaper!

We know what the base price at Broadspeed is and if the Vardy offer is still live/genuine and my maths are correct they will offer an M6 at sub 64k.

Ok we would all like a few extra toys and we are varied in our thoughts on this but noting what different people have spec'd on the various topics the extras normally come in circa £10,000. There will always be the odd exception to this rule on spec and then there is the king of spec Palmball but by and large £10k normally covers it.

I guess on the extras there must be at least a 10% discount with 15% achievable and with a great blag possibly 20%, so you can have a decent spec'd brand spanking new vehicle for circa £71k. This, in my opinion makes the new market more attractive in many ways than the used in that the car will be:-


a To your liking
b Benefits from the full 3 year warranty
c Comes with 1 year road tax - used car may only be partial
d No miles on clock outside delivery
e Everything is absolutely pristine as fresh from factory - used will be (should be) very good condition but will have had some use.

So looking at the current used offering I fail to see why there are so many used versions with spec's no better (and sometimes inferior) that have a sticker price of £72k and beyond when you can buy new for the same spec cheaper?

Something is out of kilter and to me it has to be second hand residuals as the manufacturer discounts will not change. They may well introduce different incentives but they will always work out similar. In my view they cannot take these incentives away as they will just not sell any full stop and thus will bring the end to M6 production.

So it will have to be the second hand market that moves. Also for those that require part or full financing a 'cheap' APR on used is 9.6% but most are between 10-12.5%, this is far too high given when buying new it is 4.9%.

The used market values make no sense and as noted by many on here cars are just not shifting, this will not change until dealers bite the bullet and accept they, as a rule, are not 'value' compared to that of a new car.

Only my opinion of course folks.

Agree with most you say, BUT there is NO free road TAX in fact it's doubled for new cars, so the M6 would be in the region of £900 for the first year.

Oh ok, not looked for a while but thought it was included as part of the 'on road price' I knew there was a premium for year 1 registration but thought it was all wrapped up in the aforementioned? Apologies if I have this wrong but even stripping this out the playing field is uneven.

Cheers

Yep agreed it is.
The prices shown on secondhand cars such as the M6 do not reflect the heavy discounts we can get if we try.
I got a very good deal on the one I am getting in a week or 2, £76600:00 is the total exact cost fully loaded, and because it was put back 10 weeks BMW UK have offered me £3K back in cheque form on delivery day
So the car has cost me £73600:00, so the depreciation should not be such a big hit.
That price is lower than any 1 year old car on sale just about.

Such a bizarre situation, as noted, there are cars out there a year old that are above the cost of what you can buy a new one for.

BMW dealers must know what is going on. I wonder if they would take low ball offers - £50k on a car up for £60k..

What would a BMW dealer say if you showed him your Broadspeed Print out?

It's well worth a try IMO, they can only say no. Might bite, i think they will take offers for sure.

Just went in to a BMW dealership near Heathrow and enquired about the M6. List price over £90k "but we can knock off £15k". I thought "Hmm, £15k is a big discount".

But then I came home and looked at this thread, which then led me to Broadspeed... on which they claim a saving of closer to £30k!!


Anyone recently taken the plunge? If so what sort of deal did you get?

See mine above this.
£34K is achievable.

I've not been able to get down to Broadspeed level discounts, but I've got close (£28k knocked off before extras). It got to the point where they just started dropping my p/x value.

I'm still umming and arring which I know dealers hate but it might mean a better deal. If anyone knows of a dealer in the SE that will do a deal on an M6 Coupe with £34k off please let me know! That's almost an extra 10% off.

I've never taken this long to buy a car, but it feels good taking your time and keeping the E92 for a little longer is no mean prospect.

Try BMW Specialist cars LUTON.
