BMW M6? 550-hp!

[Mooser]

I just got my "Autoweek" today, with a very small write-up on a new BMW that they say will be coming soon. They say the M6 Coupe, due early next year, will take the M5 up one notch with a 550-hp version of the same 5.5-liter V10 mated to a 7-speed manual gearbox. The article goes on and says $80K plus!
I don't have the resources to post a pic, but to me, it looks like a over-sized Honda Accord Coupe. I see alot of Japanese lines on it. I haven't checked yet, but this article may be on Autoweek.com Yep! I just checked. Go to the link and check this baby out.

click on the 'Car News' button and scroll down to M6.

Looks like a nice ride Mooser, I could be happy in one of those, altho I'm not sure I've got the 'green' to buy one. Might be a lot more than $80k.

It's definately going to be more than 80K. I also remember reading its supposed to be the fastest BMW production car ever made.
