Dear ''Hart Voor Auto's'' viewers! The last few years you hear a lot about downsizing
Like the BMW M5 has a V8 Biturbon now
Mercedes-Benz has changed their 6.2 V8 to a 5.5 Turbo..
But BMW also had a V10 engine, and today we drive the BMW M6
5.0 V10, which sounds great!
No downsizing today, the motto we have today is: ''*** you and your Prius''
As you can see, we are driving the BMW M6 today
And no, we didn't take the new M6 with the *** sounding V8
We took the former M6 with the legendary V10 engine
The V10 produces 507hp
And I think that is the most important thing about this car.. The sound it produces is amazing
Together with the power of 507hp
It is phenomenal, it is like a concert-room..
The car screams and yells... But it also has another side..
It is a BMW 6 with a long wheelbase
And also pretty wide and comfortable, pretty good for daily use
For me it is not the firs time with this 5.0 V10. I have driven the BMW M5 before, an exciting sedan
But today the 6, the coupe which is also lower to the ground. Which improves the driving, especially in corners
But still not super sportscar, it is an older type
At that time his rivals were the Porsche 997 Turbo Which was more sporty
But didn't had the same amount of power as this M6 And also didn't sound as good
This is a pleasant surprise, and I like it very much
And I think that it is the sound that it does for me. I think emotion is very important
We are looking for a little tunnel for miles, and now we have found one So let's do this!
The car has the SMG transmission
I heard a lot about it and it wasn't very positive..
It is a robotic automatic with paddles behind the wheel
And you can adjust the shifting times; you can let it *** like a granny or like Hamilton
I think you can guess in which mode we drive it; Manual and as fast as possible
But for that time it was fast, nowaday we are just too spoiled, or too much used to
But it is a sporty transmission, every gear change you get kicked in the back
And I like it. Nowadays we the gearbox from game consoles which are very fast but without any feeling
And what do we think is more important? The speed or the feeling and the emotion?
So today I a bit older car but I don't see any problems, the M6 is just still very good
Ofcourse there are a few disadvantages, but we don't notice them today
I am only going to listen to this fantastic sound
And I hear you think; the M6 doesn't sound as loud as this one?
That's right, this one has an Eisemann exhaust system
Together with the Alpina wheels it looks fantastic
I am having fun! Do you?
Like I already thought, this car has so much emotion
The sound, the driving, the gear changes, it has so much feeling. And that's what you want when you got a car like this
I have also drivent the new BMW M5 with the V8 Biturbo
Yes, very fast but a lot less emotion. And what it more important? The emotion, the fun factor...
Or the speed? I go for the emotion and the M6 is great!
See you next time at Hart Voor Auto's!
The car suits him pretty good..
Hee Piet, the car suits you! - Yes? Better than an M3?
Is it a loud sound? - No... #sarcastic Is it very nice?
