An E60 with the M package which removes the 155 limiter will push 205mph. It’s been done many times by owners. I’d love to see a hellcat and E60 face off at Nuremberg. Lol. It wouldn’t even be close.

That was probably the fastest car I've ever been in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Select models of BMW are heading way up in price. If it’s clean and well maintained they fetch decent coin. Problem with most is that they’ve fallen into poor repair. Bmw will treat you good if the maintenance is preformed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use Mobil 0-40 in my LS7 which is probably the best oil they make spec wise, I don’t get on it until the oil temp is at operating temp, usually around 140-165 depending on ambient. 11 qts of oil takes too long to warm up, Edited November 28, 2020 by thewayout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fucking silver spoon retards that bought them brand new wouldn’t give two fucks about that. BMW should have never warrantied that engine then maybe guys would have taken care if their 40k$ long block a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a pretty awesome car man. Not gunna lie. I love it. The c6z was one of favorite cars as a kid when it first came out. Nothing else outside of it (or maybe a c6 zr1) and the C8 interest me personally. Something about a 427 na corvette with serious performance numbers always peaked my interest. I don’t care about how average the interior is, the motor is stout, it has proper tremec 6 speed, 325s, great exhaust note, and 7100 rpm. It’s hard to beat them for the price you pay and these will hold their value. Edited November 28, 2020 by thewayout 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
