WTF??? This guy is full of sh@t>.

Even more confusing was that the M5's high-revving 3.6-liter inline six absolutely slaughtered the comparatively tame 5.0-liter V12.
The M5 has a V8....NOT AN INLINE 6. THAT IS THE M3 !!

Also...
To the contrary, the 850's dramatic front-end weight bias engendered by that big V12 made it understeer like a Camry on snow tires.
WTF again....the 850 had nearly 50/50 weight distro. It was even more so bias to the back just about a 100 or 2 pounds.
 
i cant' wait for the m6 to roll out.

how the hell can you compare gto to 645?

it's like saying you'd get the neon sxt or whatever over an m3 because it has similar specs.. for 20k + less.. don't even get me started on the prices on the exotics..

if yer so inclined, go ahead but there is a reason why a car costs x amount more than another, something besides just prestige.. and yea, you do over pay for a bimmer, but you also get an ultimate driving machine..

also the rs6 v 645 comparision, should't it be reserved for the m5 v rs6 once the v-10 comes out?

The '93 M5 had a 3.6L I6

D'ohh 😱


You're just an example of how quickly ATOT'ers reach to conclusions.
 
Ass is butt uglu(no pun intended).

Front looks ok, not old-BMW ok, but could be worse, considdering Bangle designed it.
 
BMW just fvck their whole new generation of beamers by making the butt so damm ugly.
I've always thought BMW makes the best looking luxury cars but they really fvck up this time around.
The butt looks just like the Solara.

Oh, the Audi RS6 looks 10x better than this car.

GTO will be around 35K. And 6-er is not 2x better than GTO. 🙂
I believe its slightly less than $33k, but lets just say its $33k, just announced by Pontiac last week I believe.

edit:
The GTO's manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) is $32,495, which includes destination and freight charges of $700. The only available option is a six-speed Tremec manual transmission for $695
 
OMG, this car looks so dang fugly!! From the uninspiring front, to the ridiculous bubble back end, this car DOES NOT look better than the 8 series. For 70k, I would take a Porsche 911 over this......BLEGH!!!
