There’s little doubt that a 500-horsepower BMW coupe will be attractive to a number of selective buyers, most of whom won’t mind the still polarizing styling of Chief Designer, Chris Bangle. Indeed, as an increasing number of competitors adopt his vision, escaping this look is becoming increasingly futile. Besides the horsepower, and regardless of your perspective on the styling, the handling characteristics of the 2006 BMW M6 should be nearly faultless, while the interior aims to support four flyers in relative coupe comfort. Our main concern, at first, was the base price that is breathing heavily on $100,000. However, a quick comparison with the likes of the less powerful Mercedes-Benz CL55 AMG and Porsche 911 Carrera S made us realize that, while extraordinarily expensive, the 2006 BMW M6 is priced well within its segment.
