Nice pics dude, I love those things.

man these cars look sick. I dont know why everyone hates on the m6. The looks were weird at first, but it is really growing on me. That thing is a beast.

that rear trunk lid looks like ass. I thought it looked bad in black. looks even worse in white!

M6 needs side air vents...
And the wheels on the M6 are nasty

:eek:Oo lala... The M5 and M6 look stunning!! I love the new styling of the exterior and interior, on both of them.



Thanks for sharing.:D

I couldn't agree more, when I see a 645 coupe driving I think that car is awesome!! Has serious presense if you ask me...... The 5 has also grown on me a ton. Love both the M5 and M6!!

Nice photos...I was there too, how was the traffic in and out of the park for you?

Did you snap those photos in the pit area or the paddock? We had paddock passes as well, but didnt see too much the few times we ventured in. I snapped a couple shots of those cars in action on the track. Will try and post some of my photos soon as my ftp server decides to cooperate :D

The 5 series still hasn't grown on me, but I've always liked the new 6's.

I saw a White 645 coupe the other day. I had some large chrome wheels and looked absolutely stunning.

Shaun got some decent shots of those BMW cars going around the track w/ the Nikon SLR, my point-n-shoot was no match.

We ran thru the Paddock and Garage area on our way back up to watch the actual GP race, but only saw the Laguna Mazda RX8 Pace/Safety car in there. The M5/6 are obviously the cars that the MotoGP caravan travels with to all the world circuits. And Yes, I think they both looked HOT, which is weird cause im not a big fan of the new 5series in non-M mode.

A lot of people seem to be hanging around that Paddock area which is cool I guess if you like that atmophere, and watching the race on a TV screen. I figure I can watch the TV footage anytime but with how short the race was, I was happy watching it for real.

One of my Motorcycle forums has the vid of the race from Speed channed hosted. I dont know how long it will be up.

M6 Looks nice!

Benjamin Choi 07-12-2005 03:55 PM

Just imagine that M6 aerokitted out by ACS or Hamann slammed on 20s. SERIOUS road presence. More so than any 911. WOW.

The new 5-series rear looks amazing, but that front end still needs some tweaking. I just can't find myself to grow to love the owl eyebrow headlight treatment.

elduderino 07-12-2005 04:13 PM

With the 996 TT losing value quickly, and everyone selling theres. I keep thinking of letting mine go, and getting on board for a m6. I just dont know anymore. lol.
