Those rims are bad ass. . .

no its not a government requirment in any country to have the 155mph restictor on, but as someone said its a gentlemans agreement. You can have them removed and its not illegal to do so. I think they do it so its basically a level playing field as far as top speed goes.

As for the M6, i don't really like it but i'll wait til the official pics come. I prefer the M4

I remember seeing the pics from the first post in a German car magazine some time ago. The M6 will be great IMO since the 6 series is the only car in the new BMW range that looks really good
