Hey guys - trying to help sell our BMW M6. The car is insanely fun to drive and is CLASSY. We have a video to show what this baby sounds like - sounds very ferrari-like to me.

The Details:

Breyton Magic 18"
Freshly new suspension
AP Racing Big Brake Kit all around ($$$ - the good stuff!)
Free flow exhaust (I believe Ansa or tubi)
Euro motor
BRAND NEW LEATHER (Sport seats!)
Short Shifter
BavAuto Plug Wires
And More!

This car is truly sick - it drives wonderfully and has that torquey NA motor :) It has euro headers since this is a GREY MARKET IMPORT. The car was federalized and has all paperwork.

Please check out the video - I am not posting pics because I want everyone to look at this car and how it sounds/drives. Again, please view the video.

I've always really really wanted an old 6. A nice red m6 was parked outside my work a few days ago. What are you guys asking for yours?

15,000 obo- has about that invested in mods. Perfect car. Like I said, brand new leather, AP racing 4 pots front 2 pots rear, etc etc... its an insane car.

Only has 90,000 on it.

why the american front bumper. My roommate in college bought a grey M6 and his bumper looked completely different.

Nice car....could return the original exhaust though imo

US bumpers because when the original owner got it federalized whichever state he brought it thru required it :( I know, still has the motor and thats what counts :)

In modern times of broadband, and if persons are genuinely interested, I think a 32mb video file is null, no?

Macv - let me know.

Lovely car. Came close to buying a grey market M635. Take a close look at that M88 and the getrag gearbox. Spendy stuff to work on. The M88 is known to eat rings due to the low octane US gas that causes them to knock; car was designed to run on high test euro.

Had a leakdown test run on the documented 75k mile one I was looking at; over 20% per hole. Blown rings.

Not suggesting anythings wrong with this one. Just do your homework. Truely a one of a kind lovely car....

The original owner did the brakes, suspension, exhaust, everything... he was very meticulous. He used premium and this car was and is garage kept.

Very beautiful car.

Thats one sweet car.. Whats that squeek when you brake?

When i bought my e34, i was looking at (this) (http://www.midtnorskgatebil.com/uploads/bilde152.jpg) 635csi first, but I figured out that a34 would suit me better as a daily driver.

That squeak is the brakes. They are AP Racing big brakes with aggressive pads, they take quite some effort to warm up! The car stops like no other.

The owner was a bit of an odd duck. Body was great but the engine needed a rebuilt and the tranny was gone too. I'm sort of expecting to see it around but it seems to no longer park where I first found it...

Still wish that one worked out - a M6 would be soooooo cool.

That M6 is amazing. I still miss my 635csi. It was grey. Had if for 1 1/2 years in in 1995-1996. Got hit by a chevy truck that pretty much destroyed it.

I think you and I spoke about this car when it was on Ebay. Did the deal not go through? If not, would you mind telling me why?

Thanks,

what exhaust set up is he running? What else was done to the motor? Sounds amazing
