Evening all,

Just thought i'd share a couple of photos of my recent purchase. I'm so impressed with it. I sold my 997 911 and replaced this with it. Really enjoying it so far, my first M car and probably not my last! I added the proper carbon tip spoiler, which i think really compliments the car and matches the roof well.

photos aren't great!





Does anyone know how many M6 GC's there are in the UK? You don't see many on the roads?

Very nice! I'd love one of these as the ultimate daily.

thanks for the info on the number produced.

John: yeah, i know they've stopped making them.

It's a cracking car, it is big though! Just nice having some mod cons that you don't get in a 2005 997 911!

Are there many active M6GC owners on here?

There a few more than that in the UK and Ireland. There are at least 532, plus a percentage from about 100 cars that I don't have the details of yet, so it's going to be somewhere between 550 and 600.

I'm really impressed with it so far, the build quality and interior are fantastic and after a decade in Porsche's its nice to have some space! The colours all work well, the best one is San Marino i think though

Ahh very cool, so there’s two of us on here! Looks immaculate that. Is it silverstone 2 or pure silver?

That one looks like Pure Metal Silver to me, not enough colour in it for Silverstone.

I have one in Sakhir Orange, competition pack and Carbon Ceramic brakes. It also has the M-Performance spoiler and rear diffuser,

Lovely looking thing. I came close to buying one, but ended up going for the M5 instead.

That's a great spec on yours. Have you any photos of the rear diffuser? Have you got the same tailpipe trims on it too?

It has the black chrome tips from the competition pack.

I'm just waiting for my rear spoiler to be delivered. I fully agree that it really works on the car and ties in nicely with the roof

The spoiler looks great I think and really suits the car.

The diffuser is very nice. Is that a BMW M part or from somewhere else?
