Autocar First Drive - BMW M6 Competition Pack




















What is it?

This is the BMW M6 Competition. The last thing we thought the standard M6 needed was a harder edge, but here we are.

BMW’s Competition Pack drops the front and rear suspension by 12mm and 10mm respectively, and adds different Pirelli P Zero Corsa tyres on wider rims. It also modifies the ABS, stability control and M Differential settings to suit – ostensibly aimed at improving cornering.

From the outside you can spot BMW M6 Competition cars by the fact they have a new bonnet with ‘precision lines’ along with redesigned wheels.

So when did you drive it? And what exactly feels so old?
This car is everything but old. Not liking the looks is up to you, but saying this is an old car is kind of silly. It has state of the art tech, and has one of the best engines ever made...
