BMW M6 Competition special edition to be revealed at Frankfurt

By Matt Brogan |

BMW will reveal a special ‘Competition’ edition of its M6 sports car at the Frankfurt Motor Show next week.

Limited to just 100 units, all of which will feature a unique numbered plaque, the M6 Competition will see the introduction of a new colour, Frozen Grey Metallic and will also include Merino leather upholstery in either a light grey two-tone finish with contrasting stitching or matte black.

Despite carrying the word Competition in its name, the only performance items fitted are to that of the car’s suspension with some minor revisions to the springs, shock absorbers, stabilisers and ride height (10 mm lower up front and 12 mm lower in the rear) offered.

    Whats with the Eddie McGuire special interior? BMW need to do a propper CSL-style limited edition of either this or the M3, not a different paint job and a huge mark-up.

    Sounds like this is in answer to the Porsche 911 Classic!

    I know people will disagree, but I still think this car looks brilliant. Granted I didn’t like it at first, but the look of it grew on me.

    • The Realist

      I agree, it looks great. In the flesh not too many cars look as menacing.

        Sadly this car looks like it has Downs Syndrome.

    Anybody else think the seats look like stormtroopers?

    • Carfanatic

      Hahahahahahaha, spot on!

      Read my mind buddy. But this car isnt as bangled in the flesh. and when you squint a bit it starts to look just that bit aggressive, but you gotta squint really hard.

    At last, a BMW with a really nice interior.
    This shape has had a fair bagging on this site, personally I think it’s great. It looks bloated in a menacing way, pity the only uprating is to the suspension, should it be given the M badge ?

    Also, WTF !!!!!!!!!!!!! a BMW article but no sh1t from Bavarian Cheesecake, is she ill, or researching something elsewhere to tell us all. Ooooooooh cant wait to hear from her, she is soooo fantastic.
