- The color.
- The rear wing: It helps hiding the original shape of the trunk.
Don't like:
- The price. I'd rather have a Ferrari 599.
- The giant wheels with no body clearance.
- The very concept of tuning what is already a carefully engineered vehicle.
- The"vaporwareness" of it: no video means it did not happen...

Make it a vinyl decal, stick it your car, and revel in the 228 mph top speed.

Price is Mariana-Trench-deep into crack pipe territory, though.

That said, the bodywork on this particular 6 is an improvement (though those hood vents are annoying) and the cornflower blue is a gas.

According to Analyst, BMW copied the Geely headlights.

Pruven Performance in Milford could build a faster M6 coupe for a lot less.
Almost 500k for that, please. No one would pay that unless it was at gunpoint. Or maybe a scenario like this:
We have your kids, if you want to see them alive, send us 500k, and we'll ship them back in a M6 coupe, no-no, you can keep the car.
What's that Barnum, you said a sucker is born every minute.

Yo listen up, here's a story
About a little guy that lives in a blue world
And all day and all night
And everything he sees
Is just blue like him
Inside and outside
Blue his house
With a blue little window
And a blue corvette
And everything is blue for him
And his self
And everybody around
'Cause he ain't got nobody to listen...
I'm blue, da ba de, da ba die
Da ba de, da ba die
Da ba de, da ba die
Da ba de, da ba die
Da ba de, da ba die
Da ba de, da ba die
Da ba de, da ba die
[repeat]
I have a blue house with a blue window
Blue is the color of all that I wear
Blue are the streets and all the trees are too
I have a girlfriend and she is so blue
Blue are the people here that walk around
Blue like my corvette, it's standing outside
Blue are the words I say and what I think
Blue are the feelings that live inside me
I'm blue, da ba de, da ba die
Da ba de, da ba die
Da ba de, da ba die
Da ba de, da ba die
Da ba de, da ba die
Da ba de, da ba die
Da ba de, da ba die
[repeat]

They started with the E63, which is quite possibly the ugliest BMW coupe in the history of ever, then added side vents, fake hood vents, a spoiler, and painted it AMC Big Bad Blue.
G-Power = fail.

3.0 CS/CSi?

From this view, they appear to be too small and incorrectly placed to serve much good in the way of extracting excess engine bay heat.
@SCROGGZILLA: Hey, I like the 3.0 CS/CSi!
I never knew about the 503, though.

Luckily for you, it's got not one, but two, custom-lined tailpipes for your pleasure.
