Yup, I think that was an equally stupid comment to yours.

FYI...I had the option of locking in a purchase of an M6 overseas in Feb of 2006 at invoice (military overseas pricing). It would have cost me slightly less than my TT did. But I still chose the TT and don't regret it for a second.
That still doesn't change the fact that the M6 is a very fast, very balanced and very impressive car overall.
IMO...any "true" car enthusiast can and will respect a different car for it's specific attributes....regardless of whether they choose to buy that particular car or not.
It seems that the majority of the childish bashing that's going on in this thread is coming from people that are, for some reason, taking the video of the race personally. Which to me is indicative of the "small d1ck syndrome" that so many people equate to Porsche owners.
It's been said that most stereotypes are based in fact...and some of the posts in this thread unfortunately seem to be a perfect example of that.

wow,
sad indeed to see the reaction of some of our members.
bmw has created a car that lots of tests show is lightning fast from the getgo; even more so from a roll. it's III-gen smg will smoke us on the shifts.
our 996tt's are lightning fast too, but more so from dead stop than rolling.
without making assumptions from the video, its clear that the new m6 can give us a run for the money from 50kmh as stated. what is the problem here?
the tt is what it is, no more no less. the new m6 is a next-gen car; 5 years is a long time...
so what the reactions? "staged"..."can't happen"..."no way"..."try the gt2"
or in the last resort: "the bmw is ugly"
wow. great arguments guys.
this is not bmw vs porsche, its simply a private test that verifies what many magazines are reporting. lets not react like a bunch of *******, or turn this into a lesser forum.
i love my 996tt; in fact have driven it 40k miles, including from san fran to miami to new york to vancouver to san fran. posted about it here many times too. problem is a have a bit of time in this bimmer too, and it's pretty f&@£ing fast once its rolling...
