BMW M5 and M6, the most powerful M cars met at the famous Laguna Seca track where we had a chance to drive the two beasts back-to-back, and to the max.
Our race track impressions will follow shortly, but in the mean time we would like to share with you some exciting photos.
As a recap, the super sporty high-end coupe that goes on sale this summer and will carry a Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Prices of $106,995. The F10 BMW M5 is just days away from reaching their first U.S. customers who paid at least $90,695 to own one of the most fun premium sporty sedans.
Both cars are powered by the high-revving 4.4-litre V8 engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology, consisting of Twin Scroll Twin Turbo technology, cross-bank exhaust manifold, High Precision Direct Petrol Injection and VALVETRONIC fully variable valve control. The cars deliver 560 hp at 6,000 – 7,000 rpm and maximum torque of 680 Newton meters (502 lb-ft) from 1,500 rpm.
But are they different on track? Is the new M6 Coupe just as balanced and stiff as the four-door M5? We’ll find out shortly.
