Prefer the new M6. Same wicked engine with the stainless manifold (artwork), a smidge lighter and looks a lot tastier. Carbon roof, too
I dought the brakes are crap, Mike - 376mm front and 370mm rear I believe. Hopefully calipers to match.
M5 is pig-ugly, unfortunatley and hasn't got the road presence of the 6.

Still - I'm not really into cars, either
