I have a stock 2013 M6 and at no point in my ownership have I thought to myself, "what this car needs is more power". That being said, it is an absolute beast and he understated how amazing the DCT is. The best way to drive one if you are just be bopping around is economy mode for the engine and suspension with the DCT cranked up to sports plus. The throttle isn't as touchy, in sport plus anything over 1/4" of added throttle will make you jump forward. It's great but it takes a lot of constant attention to keep smooth especially if you have a passenger. Thanks for the review even if I just watched to feel cool about my car.
Oil sensor failing as mine did. Ran out of oil, sensor failed, write off. Got a Tesla model 3 now but my god do I miss the 6. A lot of car for the money.
@@stepstep84 That's bad. If I get a model after 2014 do you think it's a good idea? I'm scared from reading that you wrote yours off just from those failures.
Wow that car is an exact twin to mine! Same wrap and everything I’m running 740HP I drive it from Thousand Oaks to San Diego CA 4 times a month it makes the trips very enjoyable 😊
Wow what a quality review. Expected you had a lot more subs. Been looking at this car recently and its such a beaute. I belive its too powerful for a 20 yo newer driver, but this is something I will look at in the future. And you are spot on with the ageless design, it looks brand new, and could easily fit in with newer cars even 10 years from now.
Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed the review! Definitely a lot of car for someone that young, and I would not recommend it unless they have some serious driving experience and maturity under their belt.
Awesome review bro , I love the love you have for the S63tu one of the best and deserved reviews for this car , spot on , Can you Please ask the owner the offset for the front and rear wheels please , actually can you ask the exact specs and spacers etc for the whole setup he uses , He has that dialed in perfectly Thank you
@@AutoWisdomSorry to bother you brother , Can you please ask your buddy for me about his wheels ? Did he have to do any modifications to get the wheels to fit correctly? Thanks any extra info will help
I am going on ny 3d m6 and after test driving a mustang gt i literally went right back to my third m6 as dct is the ultimate in shifting prowess was going to go m8 but they lost the dct also the styling is not as timeless as the m6 even the interior is inferior not just the styling of the interior but for example, the leg extension is power in the m6 and manual in the m8 something small but it illustrates a small drop in value in my opinion that permeates throughout the car!
Couldn't agree with you more about the ZF 8 speed. While it's good, it's still a torque converter and just doesn't have the direct feel of the DCT. The ZF is fine in a certain type of car but enthusiasts like myself will always pick a dual clutch if they can't have a manual.
As a German, I have a question. How high are the maintenance costs for such a car in the USA? I keep noticing that, on the one hand, cars in the USA are advertised by their price. On the other hand, these are cars with a lot of horsepower and a set of tires would cost a fortune in Germany. All wear parts would cost more in relation to models with smaller engines. The same goes for insurance and tax. Do Americans not worry about such things, or is it so much cheaper in the USA?
Sales tax rates are based on the local county that you live in here in California. So for example my county's sales tax rate is 7.75% and this is what you would pay for tax based on the purchase price of the vehicle. Maintenance can be costly of course, this owner knew how to do most of the maintenance himself which saved a lot of money. Here in Southern California, there is an abundance of high performance shops that specialize in exotic and European cars, so thankfully it promotes competition and helps to keep maintenance prices somewhat reasonable.
If u don’t need awd the m6 is definitely the best deal under 40k but if u live in an area where u need awd the 2014-2016 e63s amg is the best deal under 35k
I had a 2016 lci, I still can't find a car that would be "better". The F series M6 has the craziest 2 personality of ultimate luxury gt and supercar performance. Tip - this car sucks stock, so if you're not going to do a full valvetronic exhaust and at least a baby tune then buy something else, supercar aspect is very tame stock
Excellent review, I have a question for the owner of the car. At the 11:00 minute mark as the car is idled why is white smoke coming from the exhaust????
Thank you! During that clip, I had just cold started the car after it had been sitting all night. Likely just condensation, once warm it went away entirely.
Do you know what size the wheel spacers are in the back? 335s are so wide I’m surprised he had the room. Looked fantastic tho. Like to do that with mine.
Reliability was good overall for the owner, however it's important to note that he was very particular with maintenance. Frequent oil change intervals, preventative replacement of spark plugs, coil packs, etc. These backroads are located near Palomar Mountain!
Hey boss, could you give me some other options for my European touring car? I dont want to be locked down to shop for 1 vehicle. Love the sound. so thats big to me. Im not into electrics as i cant really charge them easily out of hotels and in asia theres really no charging stations yet. Let me know. I like these older, hot cars, for the value and flex. and of course speed and MUSCLE
When I said golden era, I was mainly referring to exterior design. Sound is entirely subjective, but the unrefined, raw exhaust note of this car is incredibly unique and sounds great with a proper exhaust setup in my opinion.
A friend of mine crashed his recently. It truly is a monster of a car and is incredibly tail happy. Definitely underrated car.

rare to find a channel like this. knowledgable, well presented, well filmed. no annoying dramatics etc. good stuff. subbed
Thanks a ton! Trying to get more reviews out in the next few weeks!
i've owned my 2013 f13 m6 with citrin black metallic paint for 4 years now. still love it!
Oh yeah, it's a beauty car
Do you have extended warranty?
One of the best reviews I’ve ever seen. This channel is a hidden gem!
Thank you so much!
@@AutoWisdom agreed. Keep going.
Yea man really hope you don’t get discouraged man views will come don’t change
Subscribed after ready your comment lol
I will have this car soon 💯
I bought mine last year, 2017 with 28k miles on it. Fucking love this thing ❤️
This was the most boring but entertaining video. It’s so much fun with the sound and your voice slow but fast. Amazing video
Still love my 2018 Alpina b6. Comfortable ride.
I love my 2016 Competition F06, but I also fear it a bit. It's stunning, and the mods just make it next level.
Here before AW blows up! Love that m6 exhaust note, yum!
Thank you for the support! Glad you enjoyed.
Awesome review as always. So jealous you got to experience this beast of a power train!!
Thank you Vince! Glad you enjoyed.
That V8 sounds like angels singing 😫
Wow that car is an exact twin to mine! Same wrap and everything I’m running 740HP I drive it from Thousand Oaks to San Diego CA 4 times a month it makes the trips very enjoyable 😊
what mod did you get??
how is reliability
There's one on Car Max rn for $38k w/46k miles. I really want it 😂
I love my 640 tuned! N55 is a beast!!
Hope you and your channel grow more and more brotha 💯👌🏽 would enjoy any AMG and/or Audi RS content as well!
Thank you so much! AMG/RS content is definitely planned, just need to get my hands on some to review.
13:03 What you were trying to say is that you dream of a proper Autobahn in California ;-)
Sick car, by the way!
I wish we had something like that here, would be a lot of fun!
I have a 2014 drop top and the car is a monster.. Power, Performance and Design is just unbeatable for the money
Had a c6 drop top, thinking of the m6 drop...

this car is sick
Thats a car for man. Nice video
One of my favorite looking cars ever. Can’t get myself to buy one because of the engine reliability. Looking at zl1s because of that

Thanks man! Just spoke with the owner, here are the specs:
20x10 ET25 Front
20x12 ET25 Rear + 3mm Spacer

@@Antimatter. Car is lowered on H&R Sport Springs and there is a 3mm spacer in the rear. I don't believe there is anything else that has been done.
Thorough review and easy to watch with great information. Got my subscription 💪

What happened to your others?
@@govinderbrar4335 lost in accidents
To me the E63 (650i) V8 is still the most beautiful car AND sound.
335 rear tyres? That's massive!
What a monster of a car!!
Great video

Really nailed it on the explanation! The DCT just has that satisfying snappiness that cannot be replicated with the ZF8.
Good job on the vid
Thank you!
just took mine to the track in 99 degree weather she did just shy of 11 seconds in the 1/4 mile.
I wonder what this one does in the 1/4 after hearing all those mods as mine is stock...
The face lift headlights makes the vehicle look more modern, but then again I might be biased lol.
I agree, I like the face lifted headlights too!

Questions.
Please let me know where you do the down pipe and if those modifications have problems with the California motor department?
The owner installed the downpipes himself. And you will not pass smog in California if you are running catless downpipes.
I have a F13 640i and I live vicariously through you M Drivers🦾🛞💨
I'm ready to go into debt for this
Do you know what size the wheel spacers are in the back? 335s are so wide I’m surprised he had the room. Looked fantastic tho. Like to do that with mine.
it's a 3mm spacer in the rear!
335s with spacers that’s crazy why the spacers
I need one been wanting one when am I gonna get one bruh
Wait what happened to SimplyCarThings bro? I had this video on in the background and knew I recognized your voice
I’m planning on addressing the state of the channel soon! Auto Wisdom is my new project.
I crashed my 640d f13 with 400 hp last year and this year I’m waiting for my m6😂 really Wonder how that will go
why it sounds like a brutal inline 4 not a v8 😭
how is reliability? Also where are these backroads located?

Aston Martin V8 Vantage!
I’d love to hear what your thoughts and review of a BMW M8
If I can get my hands on one, I will absolutely review it!
I have a F82 ..23k mileage..but a 2016 M6 Comp 30k mileage opportunity came up..is it worth it to even consider?
It's a sweet car, but a different experience from an F82. I would recommend test driving one and determining whether the car is right for you or not.
What years of the M6 have the hydraulic steering rack?
I believe all years of the M6 received hydraulic power steering. The last model year for the M6 was 2019.
Nice car but I think the 2007 M6 is better looking and have a unique engine.
That transmission is garbage buddy....smh
Well done. 850i now
Just for cost of maintenance and overall reliability I'd go with the RCF instead
How to attain?
Under 40k? These go for over 70k in Finland. You can barely afford a 650i for under 40k. Wish I lived there instead lol.
There’s just not enough Adjectives available.
Under 40k for one with anything over 65-75k miles
All I see is 55,000 plus for a good example coupe
As an M5 owner, this is the only thing I fear.
Fear what? they're the same car basically
what happened to your bmw channel
It can be modified?
Yes
335 tires?!
Yes!
@@AutoWisdom Cool it has grip
Golden era? Yeah, no. And the exhaust and motor sound unrefined, unclean, not muscular. But that’s what turbos do. Too bad they stopped NA motors.
When I said golden era, I was mainly referring to exterior design. Sound is entirely subjective, but the unrefined, raw exhaust note of this car is incredibly unique and sounds great with a proper exhaust setup in my opinion.
