Re: Silver M6 Spotted along east coast road

juz check it out at onemotoring?

erm...chrome linings...seems fake...
 
Re: Silver M6 Spotted along east coast road

hmmmmmmmmm...fake I think........ window trims should be not be chrome....

sigh... another "M"6 joins the fray...
 
Re: Silver M6 Spotted along east coast road

fake....done by mike 2 months back. but a good fake. u cant tell it looking inside....smg gears etc...even brakes r changed.
 
Re: Silver M6 Spotted along east coast road

actually seriously I cant understand why someone would want to do that.... just curious... but i guess its people's choice and they happy can already..

I just feel that if I were an "M" owner, I would feel "cheated" knowing someone paid half of what I did but could get it to look like a half million bux.. of course engine and performance is different, but we dont go roaring down every street to awaken the V10.. so honestly, most people would never know... even I struggle to spot the real from the fake!

somehow, it makes me feel the sancity, exclusivity and virtuosity of the "M" cars will be compromised.

I wouldnt pay half a million bux to buy a machine that is so easily "reproducable"...

IMHO...

:p
 
Re: Silver M6 Spotted along east coast road

i dun mind ppl changing the body kit/rim to look like the Mcars. but to change the badge...er..... abit low.

6 series itself is already a good car. why still need to pretend is a M6?
 
Re: Silver M6 Spotted along east coast road

thats true.... cos trying to be an M6 is really a bit... errr... not very credible lah..
 
Re: Silver M6 Spotted along east coast road

Honestly I don't see anything wrong with doing a conversion. We all do appreciate giving our rides a sporty image right? It could be abudget restrain from getting the real thing but hey, I'm happy with the ride with just the looks.... To each his own tio boh?

As for the feeling that a genuine owner has of feeling cheated, I guess it only applies when you use your car to show off your status? I don't mean it in a insulting way don't get me wrong. But if 1 day I am able to purchase a nice car like a M5, M6 or SL55 I wouldn't give 2 hoots about the car next to me even if its a very very nicely done up "fake". Yea so this is what I personally think of "fakes" on the road lor...

True... I can see your point... i dont think people buy such cars to show off... anyway the M's are meant to be understated...

But if you were the owner and someone comes up to you to ask you if your M5 is real or fake, haha... sounds not too swee tio boh? we are all humans what - the feeling wont be very nice... no doubt one can laugh it off but still it will jog one's emotions a little..

I dont own an "M" car so i dont know how i will feel if I park next to a "fake"... maybe I will say "wah lau this one looks better than mine cos more fierce!!!!!" hahahah... just my thots..

anyway all happy can liao...:p
