Awesome car, got the chance to test drive one of these beast it put a enormous smile on my face. Naturally aspirated V10 is epic. The only thing you have to watch out for is too make sure the Rod Bearings are replaced around 60k, if not there goes you're engine, but once you replace those this car is as reliable as a honda accord, you have to watch your oil, to make sure it's not low. Before you drive this M6 you have to warm the engine to a certain temperature before you drive it very important. The exhaust noise just oozes exotic sound. Future classic for sure.
An old friend of mine had a 2010 M6. The car was incredible, such quick acceleration it was brutal yet it remained so smooth when just cruising it felt like you were riding on glass. Amazing car but I couldn't even imagine the cost to maintain one! I guess if you can afford a M6 in the first place, you definitely have the money to maintain it lol
lol 12:18 - brightness, its a button to change shift speed.The BMW SMG transmission has both automatic and manual shift modes. Inside the different modes there are different programmes, with six settings to control the upshift/downshift speed for manual operation, and five settings for automatic mode. BMW's final SMG gearbox, known as SMG III, was at the fastest shifting gearbox at the time (2006) recording a 65 millisecond shift time in its most aggressive mode - a time only surpassed by Ferrari with the 599 GTO (60 milliseconds) and later the Lamborghini Aventador (55 milliseconds).
I really like the start up melody of the new BMW's something about it just sounds pleasing to the ears. Some cars have an annoying tone, I think this one is just satisfying. And thanks to your videos Kyle, we all get to hear and learn all these new cutting edge technologies and different things about some cars we may never own and or test drive. So thanks for that!
Such an underrated comment!! I love the mid-late 2000’s BMW’s cuz of the feel of the drive and easier to maintain. But what I love most about them is that chime when you first turn the car on, I’ll never get over that
In 5-10 years from now we will look back on this engine as one of the greatest BMW ever made. This was a masterpiece and as far as I am concerned makes this car a future classic. People who truly know cars know that we will probably not see something like this from BMW for the rest of our lives. This wonderful era is over and now we are stuck with forced induction. It's not just about power, it's about the delivery and the way it sounds, and I'm sorry, but a V8 will never sound as good as this.
I saw one of these friday while waiting for my teeth to numb at the dentist. It was Burnt Orange. It was NICE!. I just had no idea what it was!. Thanks again Kyle. This is a VERY nice car.
jeff ferguson don't get me wrong, it is one of my favorite cars. The reason they sell so cheap is because they get horrible fuel economy. About 165-190 miles to a tank ( which is like 2-3 days worth of gas ) if you are LUCKY and I mean VERY lucky. They, like most German cars, are expensive to maintain and are expensive to insure especially THIS M6. I plan on getting one of these someday, but not right now. The V10 M6 is one of my favorite cars.
I just want to say one thing, when you said brightness, that is the button to control the shifting speeds to the gearbox :) You probably have noticed that already :)
they are all for gear shifting... paddles are usually used when racing (having both hands on the steering sheel)... the one in the middle is for one hand driving and when doing 3 point turn and shit, when you do palm steering etc.... its just for the users preference.
@rforracing Could be the AC. Inside the car you can see the AC is swiched on and the cold pipes that carry the fluid will often collect moist like a cold soda bottle and when he revs the engine they shake and the water falls off. Have no idea if it's true, but our car does that.
Such a beautiful & magnificent machine to be plagued with mechanical issues! German engineering just means more maintenance expenses, things that shouldn't be a problem actually are! I love driving my vehicle more than I love driving to the stealership for unscheduled service!
***** $32k out the door with 39k miles. Fully loaded with heads up display and sports package. Also came with the balance of the bmw cpo maintenance warranty until August next year. Dealer through in another 3 year warranty for my troubles. I traded in a 2009 clk550 for it.
@iAaronHD Because 1) Its a larger engine and to make its peak hp, it has to work harder 2) The same can be said if you have a weak engine pulling something heavy....uses more gas 3) The number of cylinders an engine has its also a contributing factor. Since this car is a v10, to run this engine, certain amount of gas is sent through each of the 10's cylinders injectors (fuel-injected). Keep in mind a V8 drinks a lot more gas than a V6 engine. Hope it helps Jon
I agree. Lamborghini has always been a personal favorite for a sports car growing up with one. But Porsche, Maserati, Aston Martin, High-end Jags, Ferrari...all are great cars.
UzzyFuzzyy BMW IS THE BEST Motor trend recorded 4.1 seconds on a stock car. The car spins out on launch, so It wouldn't surprise me if better tires got him to 3.9.
This is such a beautiful car. If only they made a 4-door version. They finally did it with the new 6 series but this one looks better in my opinion, I always said there should have been a 4-door option for this car (without stretching it too much). Its sooo gorgeous!
@@Jalen.Kramer I know. But notice I was talking about the "looks" (ie. the design). The e60 M5 looks very different. I wanted them to make a 4-door M6 because it looks good.
love all your videos man, if i am shopping for a car i would check your videos first then i go from there.... thanks, and great work..keep them coming :)
@iAaronHD With the gas prices as high as they are and seeing as the BMW gets only 13mpg in the city, I doubt it make it their daily driver. Its not worth risking when you think daily driving... the tight parking spaces, the traffic and how ppl drive, and also don't forget the people that key the doors because they're jealous that you own a $100,000+ car. Nowadays I see a lot of ppl driving Honda Civics near my neighbourhood. Makes me proud to own my Olds
i like how the SMG transmission is layed out like a manual gearbox kinda, because when u go in reverse, u have to push it to the left and up, like a manual bmw would do, and to be in nutrual, u go in the middle
Used around 30-50k depending on year and mileage. New ones are 100k+. To fill up the tank on this V10 monster is killer on the wallet, you have to use premium which is even more expensive. I know because my brother owns the E60 generation M5 with the same engine haha.
Great Video, Thanks!! If your ever at a Mercedes Dealership, would you be able to do a review on a C63 amg? i know you have a ton of review coming out, and current projects you are working on. but if you ever get that chance to that would be sweet.
i said the same with this, the lexus rc, and the aston db10. The lexus rc and Aston db10 i just dont like their headlights design but after seeing both for a while it grows on to you especially the lexus rc which my friend bought.
are you really that thick headed? 1: get you false superiority out of here ( coming from a european ) 2: what tavi means is that the car is such a unique and weird design that somehow looks amazing. And I agree. If the m6 wasn't this ugly, it wouldn't look this amazing
@Moparman58 Chrylser and Dodge have really up'd their game! I used to own 300 SRT8 and absolutely loved it! I don't like the new design but in terms of technology, they are really really impressive! Overall American cars have gotten a lot better this year!
@rforracing thats the water fromthe air conditioner. any car wiht ac running will vent water likethat. most are toward the passenger side, but some, like this one, are in the middle.

Don't take this the wrong way.. but this car is so ugly and so beautiful at the same time that's why I love it
I have this problem too.
me too man just like the lexus rc head lights.
LongrunQBJK it’s not ugly at all
edit: i hate the butt but it’s still beautiful
It's not ugly at all, I just love the way it looks
It's not ugly
The Button in the smg is not for brightness XD its for shift speed and rough shifting when in highmode
lol 12:18 - brightness, its a button to change shift speed.The BMW SMG transmission has both automatic and manual shift modes. Inside the different modes there are different programmes, with six settings to control the upshift/downshift speed for manual operation, and five settings for automatic mode.

This car has so much soul.
The button at 12:18 isnt for brightnes
fast/slow gears
I cringe when he said that
he meant brightness for the gears haha
Hell yeah
This vid is cool but doesn't do justice to how loud and beautiful this car sounds! My friend has one, I love it!
I really like the start up melody of the new BMW's something about it just sounds pleasing to the ears. Some cars have an annoying tone, I think this one is just satisfying. And thanks to your videos Kyle, we all get to hear and learn all these new cutting edge technologies and different things about some cars we may never own and or test drive. So thanks for that!

I was debating whether or not I should get this but this tour has finalized my decision. This car is awesome. Thanks Kyle!
Cars don't get much more badass than this
In 5-10 years from now we will look back on this engine as one of the greatest BMW ever made. This was a masterpiece and as far as I am concerned makes this car a future classic.

6 years later. Still my favorite BMW 💯 I’m 17 and I’m looking to buy one 💯🎒
Wes your comment was prophetic and spot on
yes.
Always remember
Wood grain looks good for Mercedes
All leather looks good for BMW Audi
Frank Assnot wood grain looks good on all luxury cars
True
This car looks a lot better than the new one,.
Still one of the best looking BMW ever made.
No, it is THE BEST
Great V10 sound !! I will miss it !!
I wouldn’t mind finding a used on with high miles and nice interior for $15 or less and do an LS2/4L60e(if I’m not mistaken) swap.
Awesome, The ultimate driving machine!! Kyle, well done.
german engineering at its best! i love that V10 sound!
The exhaust is so laid-back it makes it even sexier.
I saw one of these friday while waiting for my teeth to numb at the dentist. It was Burnt Orange. It was NICE!. I just had no idea what it was!. Thanks again Kyle. This is a VERY nice car.
I may be the only person on Earth who enjoys this body style of 6-series, especially the so-called 'Bangle Butt'.
You're not the only one.
Omg these things go for only $30K now!!!
Less lol
and there is a good reason for it.
Yol why? Not reliable? To expensive to fix? Im debating about getting one but not sure.
jeff ferguson don't get me wrong, it is one of my favorite cars.

The V10 M6 is one of my favorite cars.
dont get it as your only car
Gotta love that pleasant warning chime :)
I just want to say one thing, when you said brightness, that is the button to control the shifting speeds to the gearbox :)
You probably have noticed that already :)
I’m gonna be that guy, don’t rev a car when it’s cold
Why not?
It isn't cold. Look at the dial below the rev.
@@l.adodg3r70 Well this car shouldn't be driven when cold in order to prevent wear in the rod bearings and the vanos system
@@gpetrakhs see man u can but u can't rev more than 2500 rpm's
It isn't cold
they are all for gear shifting... paddles are usually used when racing (having both hands on the steering sheel)... the one in the middle is for one hand driving and when doing 3 point turn and shit, when you do palm steering etc.... its just for the users preference.

Have no idea if it's true, but our car does that.
My m6 has 250k miles and still runs like a dream
congrats man!!
Did you ever have to do the rod bearings? Sheesh
Such a beautiful & magnificent machine to be plagued with mechanical issues! German engineering just means more maintenance expenses, things that shouldn't be a problem actually are! I love driving my vehicle more than I love driving to the stealership for unscheduled service!
Probably the best sounding car in history. That engine is just like an orgasm to your ears.
I might get a 2009 650 this weekend :O
Nice man
Shehryar Ehtesham Thanks man. I ended up getting it!
Broli720 Congrats and enjoy it :)

It’s still an incredibly hot car, from the proper angles...

I swear I've heard that horn in GTA San Andreas...
This was the best in depth tour I've ever seen. I'm soon trading in my 04 gto for this beauty.
AAAAAAWWWW MAN I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DID THIS CAR!!!!
the voice dont matter but the total review.His good!
this is the best chime in cars these days great wok kyle
Great review mate. Really appreciate your both videos on bmw M6. Thanks a lot for the high quality video
BMW is truely incredible
I agree. Lamborghini has always been a personal favorite for a sports car growing up with one. But Porsche, Maserati, Aston Martin, High-end Jags, Ferrari...all are great cars.
I really do like the M logo and its 3 colors.
I'm getting a Lexus RX450h as a first car within the next 4 months and this is my dream second car!!!!!
WOW .... unbelievable car .... it's just COMPLETE
Brightness? isn't it the speed for how fast you want the gearbox ti shift? :)
My dream car. This car is the full package
Wood trim in an M6 ? :(
I like the carbon trim better, plus wood adds to much weight
@@potatoavacadonion1025 wood adds too much weight... lol
Simply beautiful! Great vid as always Kyle!
I love the sound of sound of that V10
i always fall in love with bmw´s
One of my favorite sports cars. I'll take this over a cl 63 benz any day. Bmw overall has better stock rims then mercedes.
Love your videos but I find it hilarious you honk the horn in all of your reviews.
Horn is a very importante part of this car, To get fuckers out of the way when you're destroying lhe road
Or when you are not using your turn signals lol
I like the looks of this generation better than the new ones.
i like this intros you started to make
how can you tell if the car is in park? 2:40? do you have too shift it to N then pull the ebrake?
I need this car and i needed it yesterday.
0-60 for me is around 3.9 sec
UzzyFuzzyy BMW IS THE BEST
Motor trend recorded 4.1 seconds on a stock car. The car spins out on launch, so It wouldn't surprise me if better tires got him to 3.9.
This is such a beautiful car. If only they made a 4-door version. They finally did it with the new 6 series but this one looks better in my opinion, I always said there should have been a 4-door option for this car (without stretching it too much). Its sooo gorgeous!
They did bro search up bmw m 5 v10 its the same engine and everything just sedan version.
@@Jalen.Kramer I know. But notice I was talking about the "looks" (ie. the design). The e60 M5 looks very different. I wanted them to make a 4-door M6 because it looks good.
love all your videos man, if i am shopping for a car i would check your videos first then i go from there.... thanks, and great work..keep them coming :)
In the menus you can change transmission and engine settings to sport and 500 etc. but if you just press the "M" button does it do all that for you?
my favorite car, i personally think its better looking than the new M6, but the interior of the new one is better
By far best looking BMW
This was the best looking BMW.
why 57 dislikes? that car is a beauty u cant do that...
Loving these BMW's. Keep them coming.
@iAaronHD

wow this is a really good and beautiful car
the new M6 absolutely blows this thing away
It honestly looks like a spaceship.
Love the sound of the motor in this video...
Fantastic sounding BMW
05:32 that's a real engine masterpiece!
one day this will be my car
Got it yet?
I really like the BMW chime sound!!
its just the most beautiful car in the world.
dream car.idc what you dislike about it
So much better looking than the new 6-series styling.
@BotchyXdog
I agree, the dash would look so much better with aluminum trim.
Not a fan of BMW, but damn thats some great editing work!
this car is just awesome it could use a little improvements like mpg and interior look but other then that this car is sooooo fucking awesome
Used around 30-50k depending on year and mileage. New ones are 100k+. To fill up the tank on this V10 monster is killer on the wallet, you have to use premium which is even more expensive. I know because my brother owns the E60 generation M5 with the same engine haha.
love the m6 so glad u got a vid
My nephew really really likes that car! He says he would buy it if he could afford it.
Your nephew has great taste. :)
Might be the greatest car BMW ever made. Why they messed around with the redesign of the 6 series is beyond me!!!
Great Video, Thanks!! If your ever at a Mercedes Dealership, would you be able to do a review on a C63 amg? i know you have a ton of review coming out, and current projects you are working on. but if you ever get that chance to that would be sweet.
This was very in depth! Great job! I love the exterior! The interior, not so much!
Love the sound of that motor V10
This car is so fucking ugly it's gorgeous, and I love it.
So true
i said the same with this, the lexus rc, and the aston db10. The lexus rc and Aston db10 i just dont like their headlights design but after seeing both for a while it grows on to you especially the lexus rc which my friend bought.

If the m6 wasn't this ugly, it wouldn't look this amazing
Sukrit Ganesh the front is gorgreous the back ugly asf imo but the power of that v10 kills it
Shut up
I'm crying for not having a car like that :'( very nice review though
@Moparman58 Chrylser and Dodge have really up'd their game! I used to own 300 SRT8 and absolutely loved it! I don't like the new design but in terms of technology, they are really really impressive! Overall American cars have gotten a lot better this year!
this car is just AWESOME!!!
thank you for the great review! keep up the amazing work!
I can't wait until you do a video of the new 2012/2013 M6 (or maybe the M5 if Hendrick can get one in :D)
Sounds awesome. Especially since it doesn't have like a hamann after market exhaust or anything.
@rforracing thats the water fromthe air conditioner. any car wiht ac running will vent water likethat. most are toward the passenger side, but some, like this one, are in the middle.
My favorite M6!
12:17 always drive with brightness on the second highest setting 😉
When your car gets worse gas mileage than a pickup truck, your doing good.
