Question BMW M6 help!! PLS

Hello all! My mother is getting the M6, and it arrives in 2months. It's time to pick the colors, and she loves the Red interior w/ Carbon Fiber trim. Now her favorite color in Navy blue. She is Between Monaco Blue w/ Red interior, or Saphire Black w/ Red interior. I would love your opinions. I don't think either will look bad.
BTW she had the first 2 coming into FLL, but they only came in SMG, so she has waited for the 6speed.
I appreciate your help!

I didn't know the M6 is coming with a 6speed.

Is it going to be restrictive in the same ways that the m5 is (in regards to speed and the inability to completely tun off tc)?

Oh, and my vote would be Blue with the red.

Josh.

6 speeds are available on the M6's come March (http://www.m5board.com/vbulletin/sho...ighlight=speed)

As for color...I think Saph. Black/red is my favorite.

For more info on the M6 m6board.com is great for honest opinions and a sheet load of pics...

I believe that you can turn the T/C off completey esp on a 6speed. Although if the M5 is that way the M6 may be, it could also only be that way on SMG.

I think Blue is the way to go as well, although the Black Saphire is amazing

Thank you! I will check out the site.
I also think Black Saphire is great, but my mothers favorite color is Navy Blue, so I think Monaco Blue it is.
Thank you!

You won't be able to turn off T/C in the 6 either...that's why the SMG is so damn popular in the new M5's and M6's

Oh! Thanks for the input.
Either way, I enjoy the 6speed over smg. I feel more involved in the driving experience.

I feel that black on black is the best combo.

I totally agree with that...I will ALWAYS prefer a manual transmission to anything else, it's part of the fun of driving.
