Though it is bit hard to debate on these things if we haven't even driven yet even the "slow and heavy" M6.
Heck, give me an M6 and the word Porsche wouldn't even cross my mind for the next 10 years. :bwahaha:

But honestly, if I have the capacity, I'll always yearn for a Turbo 911 and an M5 in my garage... Regardless of what year it may be...
You just gotta have both if you want mean machines

The M3 was never too big for the Porsche... just too heavy. The CSL did fit the bill perfectly (in some track tests, it could beat the 911, but mostly because of the excellent Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tires) but yes, it was too similar to the base M3 at too high a price to effectively make a mark.
I'd lay my money on a CSL M6 as the "proper" BMW GT... hopefully without the AT or that ridiculously fragile electronic differential. But, as I said, the 911 and the M-cars are getting very close to being "supercars".
But the Z4 M-coupe will will definitely be BMW's finest sports car to date. One can only hope they bring it here.
Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

your wish may soon come true, though not from BMW, but from it's rival audi. it's called the audi r8, based on their concept car Le Mans Quattro. it shares the same chassis as the Gallardo. it'll have the same price as the 911, but 200 more horses under the hood.

In defense of sir squala, if Porsche can stay independent up to now making sports cars, then it must have a profitable market.
The 6-series was a letdown for me... inabangan ko talaga... ang pangit!
I sure hope there's gonna be a re-styled M6CSL...
Isn't Porsche coming out with a sports sedan called the Panamera?
I kinda like it's looks better than the M5.Last edited by Flagg; March 24th, 2006 at 04:57 AM.

Had they created the 'Z6' and price it below an equivalent 911, I'm quite confident there will be a good following.
Lastly, some liquid sedan concept Porsche's got there!
