Hey, who was I to argue that? I did try by saying that the coupe is faster, more hardcore and looks stunning in Alpinweiss but my opion changed once I test drove both the coupe and the vert.

True, the coupe is more hardcore than the vert and handles (a little) better but let me tell you, one can only tell the difference while pushing the car to the limit on a track. For every day use, you hardly feel the difference as the vert is amazingly fast and really has a stiff chasis for a convertible.



Buying an M6 is getting two cars for the price of one. You get a GT which is easy to drive and can be used every day but all this can be changed at the push of a button and boy, you get a wild animal in your hands with true sportscar caracteristics. Buying the M6 convertible gives you ... 3 cars. Driving this thing with the top down is so much fun. The engine sound is amazing and accellerating with the top down in P500 Sport, S5, MDM on is like a rollercoaster ride over and over again and that kind of makes up for loosing the CF roof.

My advise to you and your brother ... stop arguing , both race to the dealer and you place an order for the coupe and your brother orders a vert and ... off you go for a nice family race. Make sure to post pictures when you get them delivered
I am not buying as of now, unfortunately we here in Pennsylvania get a shitload of snow so I need an SUV so the next vehicle I am purchasing is a E70 4.8 in AW like your 4.8, I want to go with the Tobacco interior and the Aero kit is a must, as for my brother I am sure by this coming summer he will have a M6 vert and will borrow my E53 in the winter but I get to rip around in the M6 so it all will work out
