I havent been keeping up with the production times, but is the new M6 already out, becuase i just passed one about 4 days ago in Scottsdale AZ with temp tags on it. Not dealer tags, temp tags. It was 100% an M6. I didnt know they made it to the US yet...but again I havent been paying close enough attention.

BMW North Scottsdale has an M6 Cab on display upstairs. It's been there for a while.

I ordered my F10 M5 in Triple Black because of what Wesley Snipes told me:

"You can't make an E60 M5 like this no matter what you do. I don't mean that in a negative way. It is just a completely different type of car."

My question is the car will be ready on 8/22. I wonder if I will be able to pickup earlier than 9/1 and if not where will they store the car for 10 days if it cannot be picked up earlier?

passed an orange f12 m6 in NJ near prestige BMW

realoem lists US cars starting from MARCH/2011 so there are people driving around with US cars

if you have the VIN configurations you can try and plug them in on realoem since their catalogs are arranged by vin

Saw my first M6 this weekend. Cabrio, San Marino Blue/Silverstone, BMW of Beverly Hills temp tags. Had no less than five people stopped checking it out. Bummer, the person who owned the car parked way to close to the curb and it would be a miracle to not curb the 20" rim when backing out

Checked with my CA today, my M5 is still status 112. Makes sense as I am scheduled for build week 35.
