To all M6 Owners

Think about it like this... Inline 6 vs. V-8. Significantly more cost, maintenance, and reliability. The comes you scenario. V-8 vs. M V-10. M vehicles require more maintenance in general, compared to their "standard" counterparts due to the simple aspect of high- performance parts and builds that require regular teardowns. If you can rebuild a beautiful V-10 yourself, then don't worry about it. I know of a couple of guys this applies to, who don't work for BMW or own their own shops. Good luck!

Here's one just for laughs... http://jalopnik.com/5907382/what-happens-when-you- dont-use-a-parking-brake? utm_campaign=socialflow_jalopnik_facebook&utm_source=j alopnik_facebook&utm_medium=socialflow

How many miles does your car have? What were the major cost? Tarnny head gasket?

I don't currently own one, despite having turned my share of wrenches on the lot. I recommend finding a good local shop. www.bimrs.org would be good place to check if you don't currently have one. What models have you owned? Worked on?
