Bmw M6 Gran Coupe vs. Audi RS7

SchnellList · 12-15-2014, 01:58 PM

Bmw M6 Gran Coupe vs. Audi RS7...which is your favorite? Both have similar performance figures and weight, 560hp & 4400lbs, but we personally love the looks of the M6 Gran Coupe! Any personal experiences with either to sway our vote on the M6 Gran Coupe? Here are a couple currently for sale,

I sort of like the rs7, but it has a kind of pinched-turd thing going on, kinda like the first gen CLS Benz. 6er GC is just gorgeous in person IMO

Red Bread · 12-15-2014, 02:27 PM

Agreed, the A7 is painful to my eyes. The A6 however is better than either and the forbidden RS6 Avant would be my choice of this class, if we could have it in the US.

Exactly what we were thinking about the RS7! Love the car but the back end isn't pleasing to the eye balls!

I think the RS6 Avant would be everyone's choice haha!

Panamera turbo *cough cough*

Just kidding. I like the GC because it's more pleasing to the eyes.

I agree that the Panamera Turbo is probably the best performance wise! Probably a lot more fun on the track than the GC! But doesn't this Black GC look great?

Yep, of your choices, the 6GC looks the best to me. The 7 has a full diaper, the CLS looks like a biscuit, the M5 has SHO side vents and the E63 is a taxi with an awesome motor.

Haha love the descriptions of each car! What about the Panamera and the Aston Martin Rapide?

The Rapide is great if Peter Dinklage is the tall person in your family. The Panamera is just too ugly (and I've had a Z3 M Coupe, 135i and X1). I'd pay to listen to a Granturismo though. They may not be that pretty, terribly fast or work every day, but they sound perfect.

It's sort of sacrilege, but for me, unless I just wanted the noise of the Mazzer, I'd likely buy a P85+ Tesla if I were looking in this class.

Love the descriptions above! The P85 would be a great car! I would love to see it have an awd system but I know Tesla is cooking up a specific model with awd.

Red Bread · 12-15-2014, 04:58 PM

Isn't the Model D, which is somewhat confusingly an awd Model S 85+, coming out in 2015?

Ya it is a little confusing but I believe you are correct with the model D being AWD. Finally a great car for all weather states!

We definitely agree! I do have to say that I think Maserati's designs have come a long way! I think the Quattroporte is beautiful but still doesn't compare to the M6 GC!

That blue Gran Coupe isn't an actual M6, though. Looks like a 640i M-Sport, no?

I think the RS6 Avant would be everyone's first choice.

GC. But, I do like the way the RS7 looks. I have become fond of the body style of the time.
