The new M5 doesn't have stick available...only the 7 speed SMG. That's cool, but this car is gonna price in the mid $100k range then, considering the 6 already starts at $70k.

well, considering that it IS mb CL500 competition, the price should be similar

When I owned my BMW I had always like the E36, E46, and E39 MBWs. Now I don't like the style of any of them. This 6 is good looking from the front but I don't like the rear trunk. If it were not for the reliability issues with German cars I probably would still be buying BMWs, but then again, not with the new designs. I would rather go with Mercedes now.

I heard it will have the M5's V10. Arent they built off of the same platform?? Considering that a 645i is about 80 grand, if anything the M6 would have the same engine as the M5 or something bigger, but definitely not smaller.

EDIT: Woops, my bad, didnt even notice there was a second page and the question was already answered.
