S3 GPowered M6
Had some down time @ work and took some pics from you guys .
and a lil vid i did b4 the battery died @ Premier Open house

The birth of the first ever S3 Gpower'd M6 in North America and only a few made around the world..




http://badcopnodonuts.com/2009/07/30...-bmw-m6-motor/

I went to a meet this Saturday and had first hand experience of the S3 GPowered M6 debut. It gave everyone goosebumps when this car flew by the M5 caravan (we were doing 80 mph+) heading to the meet. It seemed as if we were just standing still. It looked just as powerful standing still when the engine bay was in full view for everyone to see. This is a serious contender for any car claiming to be the fastest BMW. If you have an opportunity to go to SEMA this year, it will be there. I believe it will appear sooner at a local SoCal meet. I'll post it if I hear the car will be there.

When I see S3 M6 I assumed Dinan. So fill me in on what makes this one special...(your link doesn't work)
