A friend has a 2013 BMW M6 convertible for sale (turbo 4.4L V8). The price is good, 32K miles and no damage history. I do like the car and I love convertibles. However, its age has me wondering if it's going to be a pain maintaining all that crummy European plastic and rubber. He has a 100HP tune on it that raises boost a little and disables the 155MPH top speed limiter.
I've driven the car in the past, before the tune and found it to have adequate power. It's launch is really not that hard, but like so many turbo cars, the car accelerates really hard once it's at speed. It's a big and heavy car, and feels it. But that's OK, as Florida is flat and travel is fast here.
The car is about as fast as a prepped Vette.
Any thoughts?
