I'm now back on the dark(est) side
Today was my last few miles with the IS-F, from now on I'll have to travel to Austin to touch it
I've replaced it with a 07 M6 coupe
The IS-F has much better seats.

You're gonna need luck.

Still, I love the 6....especially the M6. One of my all-time favorite looking cars.

Congrats on the new ride.

I strongly considered a used M5 before ordering a new M3, but I wasn't sure I could afford to feed the car on my budget. It seems most owners get around 12 mpg. That is a lot of premium fuel.

Good luck with your M6. I can think of a few reasons myself to go from F to M but at the end of the day im probably going to stay in the Toyota family. Hope all stays well and that a few years down the line from now your still happy with the switch.

If I were going to switch i would look for a new one though. May have a few unforeseen problems that the previous owner/dealer may neglect to tell you.
And also Bmw has great financing options if you decide to go that rout. 0 interest for a long while. My sister used the plan to her benefit and payed off her 5 series in a very short amount of time.

Eithe way M6 is a sexy car. Enjoy the status lol

That's a really nice choice. Good looking car, power is awesome and not too many of them around. It's on my list for sure and you know you've made a good choice when no one is flaming you on this forum.

You are going to enjoy it for sure.
