2006 BMW M6 Preview

M to the Sixth Power

BMW's 6 Series coupe gets the M treatment with a 500-hp V10 and other go-fast upgrades.

Is The M6 For You?

Buy this Vehicle if	You want a high-performance coupe that can keep up with Ferrari’s but is less expensive and more comfortable.
Keep Looking if	You want even more comfort and/or practicality, in which case the M5 sedan is worth considering; fuel economy is a concern; ultimate exclusivity matters and you're willing to pay for it.
Who Fits?	Front-seat occupants will find ample adjustments in the supportive seats, though they're firmer than some may prefer; minimal legroom and headroom make the backseat nearly uninhabitable.
Options Worth Splurging on	A fighter-jet-like head-up display ($1,000) projects the vehicle’s speed and other data onto the windshield in the driver’s line of sight.
Closest Competitors	Cadillac XLR-V Jaguar XKR Maserati GranSport Mercedes-Benz CL55 AMG
