thanks, simply awesome...specially i got surprised with the M635i performances...i expected that the car wasnt going to be as easy to powerslide as the driver did, in addition, i thought that the car was going to have some softer suspensions and so on.......although it wasnt as powerful as the M6 as far as i know

Very good add thanks. But it isnīt the same a M635 than a M6 that also existed with the M1 power unit, isnīt it?

Nice to see the old 6 in action!

Yup, it's the same. It was called M635CSi in Europe and M6 in the US. Don't know why.....

It is similar!

The US M6 has 256bhp(lower compression ratio. Probably emissions crap) and the European M635CSi has 286bhp.
The Engine is from the M1, also used in the E28 M5 which in itself came from the older 70's CSl batmobile racers.
3.5l, 24valve, I-6.

Top speed is around 160mph/255kph european and 150mph/240kph US. Ex-formula1 world champion Nelson Piquet owned one.
I almost bought a black M6 that was driven by Mr. Piquet in a demonstration around Kyalami way back then, but opted for a Porsche instead.
The M635CSi is an awesome cars and STREETS better than a normal 635CSi!

Considering how the E63 M6 is probably going to be more than $10k above the E60 M5's price, and yet have the exact same motor, gearbox, and driving technology, I'd rather settle for the E60 M5.

Pretty nice video, btw.

Chopping of two doors is the best way to raise the price of a car.
