Facelifted late last year, the BMW M6 receives a more, ahem, competitive Competition Package for 2015, adding a dollop of oomph to the already awe-inspiring performance of the outgoing version (not like the regular model was ever lacking in this department in the first place).
With it, the 4.4 litre twin-turbo V8 now produces a round figure of 600 hp, 40 hp higher than in standard form and 25 hp more than the previous Competition Package. Torque has also risen to 700 Nm from 1,500-6,000 rpm, up 20 Nm from before (the standard M6 also produces 680 Nm, but over a narrower spread).
So equipped, the M6 flings itself to 100 km/h in just 3.9 seconds (Convertible 4.0 seconds), two tenths of a second faster than the old Competition Package, itself one tenth quicker than in standard form. More impressively, the new version blows past the 200 km/h barrier in a scarcely-believable 11.8 seconds, a massive 0.6 seconds faster than before. As with the standard M6, the electronically-limited 250 km/h top speed can be raised to 305 km/h through the optional M Driver’s Package.
As before, the new Competition Package also includes firmer springs, dampers and anti-roll bars, a separate control unit for the Active M Differential’s final drive for improved traction, more direct steering as well as a sportier Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) system. Outside, the optional pack is differentiated through seven-spoke 20-inch light alloy wheels and black chrome exhaust tips.

Toyota is still moving coffin, no matter what. Put 10 airbags still no use because of faulty airbags
no point having all the power but it doesn’t look good.
I will have the i8 thanks.
Low RV. Shall buy Toyota86 and get piece of mind. At least wont kwai tai in middle of the road.
No piece of mind when driving in a moving coffin
holy crap sweet goodness gracious motherlord..the great M6 has been upgraded into the greatestmestfestest M6
I don’t see the point for the extra power on what would be considered as a GT car. It’s already as quick as hell in standard form and if you want to enjoy track days, the M3 would be a better choice. Back to the old “because you can” I guess.
Some people can’t even handle a MYVI’s power. 600hp is way too high. It’s all up to the driver :)
